Answer:

The volume of cylinder B is 26cm³

Step-by-step explanation

The volume of a cylinder is expressed as πr²h.

given cylinder A and B,

Va = πra²ha...(1)

Vb = πrb²hb...(2)

If the height of B is twice the corresponding height of A, then hb = 2ha

Given the volume of A to be 13cm³ then;

13 = πra²ha...(3)

Vb =  πrb²(2ha)... (4)

Since they are mathematically similar, both cylinder will have the same radius ra = rb

Dividing equation 4 into 3

13/Vb = πra²ha/2πrb²ha

since the radius are the same, they will cancel out to have;

13/Vb = 1/ 2

Vb= 26cm³
