This is the basics for the problem:
The volume of a cylinder (think about the volume of a can) is given by V = πr2h where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder. Suppose the volume of the can is 100 cubic centimeters.

Volume = pi r^2 h (please use the carat to indicate a power)
you need r to find h. I think you would want to make a graph with r as the "x-variable" and h as the "y-variable". Pick an r, solve the above equation for h and plot the point. Repeat for other r values and then plot the curve, which should resemble a hyperbola.

In a universal experience that's impossible, inspite of the undeniable fact that if one has this form of cylinder and for some reason one can not degree its height, like this is sealed in an engine or some such, then you are able to fill it with a known quantity of liquid, and then plug that quantity in because of the fact the answer to get the peak from the equation.

The Volume of a cylinder is givem by V = π(r^2)h and not by πr2h !!

If you cross multiply yoy end up with

h= Volume divide by (Pi x radius squared)
you must square the radius then multiply by Pi

divide the Volume by the answer to Pi X r squared)
