Question : If the radius of a cylinder is decreased by 12%, then by how much percentage must its height be increased so that the volume of the cylinder remains the same?
Option 1: 29.13%
Option 2: 21.78%
Option 3: 42.56%
Option 4: 34.27%
Correct Answer: 29.13%
Solution : Let's denote the original radius of the cylinder as $r$ and the original height as $ℎ$. Now, if the radius is decreased by 12%, ⇒ $r$′ = $r$ −0.12$r$ = 0.88$r$ ⇒ $V'$ = $π(0.88r)^2h'$ Since the volume remains the same ⇒ $πr^{2}h$ = $π(0.88r)^2h'$
