Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
the volume (V) of the cylinder is calculated as
V = πr²h ( r is the radius and h the height ) , then
V = π × a² × 2a = 2a³π
(b)
the volume of the prism is calculated as
V = Ah ( A is the cross- sectional area and h the height ) , then
a²b = 2a³π ( divide both sides by a² )
b = 2πa
