Lab Report Title: Polynomial Functions Materials used: * A cylindrical object such as a soup can or thermos * Ruler or tape measure * Graphing technology (e.g.‚ graphing calculator or GeoGebra) Procedure 1. Measure and record the diameter and height of the cylindrical object you have chosen in inches. Round to the nearest whole number. 2. Apply the formula of a right circular cylinder (V = r2h) to find the volume of the object. (Note: Be sure to find the radius from the diameter
