How to find the volume of a circular pool?

The pool is circular. Therefore, it is a cylindrical.

Hence,

volume of a cylinder = πr²h

where

  • r = radius
  • h = height

Therefore,

diameter = 12

radius = 12 / 2 = 6 ft

height = 4 ft

volume = π × 6² × 4 = 144π

When you want to increase the depth

volume = π × 6² × 8

volume  = π × 36 × 8

volume  = π × 36 × 8

volume = 288Ï€

Therefore, the change will make the volume of the pool double.
