Given: Diameter of cylindrical vessel = 28 cm radius of cylindrical vessel (R) = 14 cm

Height of cylindrical vessel (H) = 12 cm

Let V denote the volume of the cylindrical vessel.

                        

begin mathsize 12px style straight V space equals space πR squared straight H
straight V space equals space 22 over 7 cross times 14 cross times 14 cross times 12
straight V space equals space 7392 space cm cubed end style

Length of the rectangular tub (l) = 66 cm

Breadth of the rectangular tub (b) = 28 cm

Let h be the height to which the water rises and V1 denote the volume of the rectangular tub.

                        

begin mathsize 12px style straight V subscript 1 space equals space lbh
straight V subscript 1 space equals space 66 cross times 28 cross times straight h
straight V subscript 1 space equals space 1848 straight h space cm cubed end style

Now, volume of water in the rectangular tub is equal to the volume of water in the cylindrical tub. Therefore,

begin mathsize 12px style straight V subscript 1 space equals space straight V
1848 straight h space equals space 7392
straight h space equals space 4 space cm end style
