Answer:
Volume of cylinder = π/4 (the volume of the prism) or π/4 (4r²)(h) or πr²h (D)
The complete question related to this found on brainly (ID: 4049983 and 4265826) is stated below:
A cylinder fits inside a square prism as shown. For every cross section, the ratio of the area of the circle to the area of the square is or πr^2 or π/4. Since the area of the circle is π/4 the area of the square, the volume of the cylinder equals
A) π/2(the volume of the prism) or π/2 (2r)(h) or πrh.
B) π/2 (the volume of the prism) or π/2 (4r2)(h) or 2πrh.
C) π/4(the volume of the prism) or π/4 (2r)(h) or π/4(r2h).
D) π/4(the volume of the prism) or π/4 (4r2)(h) or πr2h.

Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the cross section in the cylinder
Area of circle = πr²
Area of the cross section in the square prism
Area of square = (side length)²
Here the side length = diameter
Diameter = 2×radius = 2r
Area of square = (2r)² = 4r²
Ratio of area of circle to area of square = πr²/4r² = π/4
Area of circle/area of square = π/4
Area of circle = π/4 × area of square
Area of circle = π/4 × 4r²
Volume of cylinder = area of circle × height
Volume = πr² ×h = πr²h
Volume of square prism = area of square × height = (2r)²h = 4r²h
Ratio of volume of cylinder to volume of square prism = πr²h/4r²h = π/4
Volume of cylinder/volume of square prism = π/4
Volume of cylinder = π/4 × volume of square prism = π/4 × 4r²h
= πr²h
Therefore Volume of cylinder = π/4 (the volume of the prism) or π/4 (4r²)(h) or πr²h (D)
