✓Answer
Given: height = 2r; if height = 6r, volume increases by 539 dm³.
Initial volume = πr²h = πr²(2r) = 2πr³
New volume = πr²h = πr²(6r) = 6πr³
Increase in volume = 6πr³ – 2πr³ = 4πr³
ATP: Increase in volume = 539
⇒ 4πr³ = 539
⇒ r³ = 539 × {7\over 22 × 4}
⇒ r³ = {343\over 8}
⇒ r = 3.5 dm
Height (actual) = 2r = 7 dm
