Calculate the volume of different 3D shapes, given the units and measurements required. The formulae for the volume of each shape are available as steps if required.

In this example the radius of the circular face is $\\mathrm{radius} = \\var{r7}m$ which can be used to calculate the area of the circular face.
\\begin{align}
\\mathrm{Area\\thinspace_\\bigcirc} &= \\pi \\times \\mathrm{radius}^2 \\\\
&= \\pi \\times \\var{r7}^2 \\\\
&= \\var{pi * (r7)^2}\\, \\mathrm{m}^2 \\,.
\\end{align}
Now that we have the area of the circular face ($\\mathrm{Area\\thinspace_\\bigcirc}$) we can multiply this by the $\\mathrm{depth} =\\var{w7}m\\thinspace$.
\n\\begin{align}
\\mathrm{Volume} &= \\mathrm{Area\\thinspace_\\bigcirc} \\times \\mathrm{depth} \\\\
&= \\var{pi*(r7)^2} \\times \\var{w7} \\\\
&= \\var{dpformat(pi*w7*(r7)^2, 5)} \\\\
&= \\var{dpformat(pi*w7*(r7)^2, 1)}\\, \\mathrm{m}^2\\,. \\quad \\text{1 d.p.}
