The answer is (A).
Volume = pie * r^2 * h
New volume = pie * (1.1r)^2 * 1.2h
= pie * 1.21r^2 * 1.2h
= pie * r^2 * h * 1.452
--> increase of (1.452 - 1 = 0.452) or 45.2%
Volume = pie * r^2 * h
New volume = pie * (1.1r)^2 * 1.2h
= pie * 1.21r^2 * 1.2h
= pie * r^2 * h * 1.452
--> increase of (1.452 - 1 = 0.452) or 45.2%
