A pan for baking french bread is shaped like half a cylinder. It is 12 inches long and 3.5 inches in diameter. What is the volume of the uncooked dough that would fill this pan?

[tex]\pi \:{r}^{2} h[/tex]
Since we have the diameter, we need to divide it in half to get the radius of 1.75. You then square it to get 3.0625. Next, multiply this by the height (or length in this case) to get 36.75. you can either leave it in terms of pi or multiply 36.75 to get your final answer
