(iii) length = 15 m, breadth = 6 m and height = 5 dm
(iv) length = 24 m, breadth = 25 cm and height = 6 m

(i)
Here, l = 12 cm, b = 8 cm, h = 4.5 cm
Volume of the cuboid = $l×b×h\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}$

Total Surface area = 2(lb + lh+ bh)

Lateral surface area = $2\left(l+b\right)×h$

(ii)
Here, l = 26 m; b = 14 m; h =6.5 m
Volume of the cuboid =  $l×b×h\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}$

Total surface area = 2(lb + lh+ bh)

Lateral surface area =

(iii)
Here, l = 15 m; b = 6 m; h = 5 dm = 0.5 m
Volume of the cuboid =  $l×b×h\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}$

Capacity of the closed rectangular cistern = volume of the cistern = $l×b×h$
∴ Capacity of the cistern

Also, area of the iron sheet required to make the cistern = total surface area of the cistern
= 2(lb+lh +bh)

#### Question 3:

The dimensions of a room are (9 m × 8 m × 6.5 m). It has one door of dimensions (2 m × 1.5 m) and two windows, each of dimensions (1.5 m × 1 m). Find the cost of whitewashing the walls at Rs 6.40 per square metre.

We need to white wash the four walls of the room
Here, l = 9 m; b = 8 m; h = 6.5 m
Area of the four walls =

Now, the door and the windows are not to be white washed.
Area of the door =
Area of a window =

Area to be white washed = area of four walls − (area of door + area of two windows)
= 221 − (3 + 2 $×$ 1.5)
= 221 − 6 = 215 m2
Cost of whitewashing = Rs 6.40/m2
∴ Cost of whitewashing 215 m2 = Rs 6.40 $×$ 215 = Rs 1376

i.e., volume of wall

Length of the brick = 25 cm
Breadth of the brick = 11.25 cm

Length of the wall = 15 m = 1500 cm
Breadth of the wall = 30 cm
Height of the wall = 4 m = 400 cm
Volume of wall =

Also, volume of the mortar =

Total volume of the bricks in the wall = volume of the wall − volume of the mortar
= (18000000 − 1500000) cm3= 16500000 cm3

An open rectangular cistern when measured from outside is 1.35 m long, 1.08 m broad and 90 cm deep. It is made up of iron, which is 2.5 cm thick. Find the capacity of the cistern and the volume of the iron used.

External length of the cistern = 1.35 m = 135 cm
External breadth of the cistern = 1.08 m = 108 m
External height of the cistern = 90 cm
∴ External volume of  the cistern

In order to find the internal volume of the cistern, we need to determine the internal dimensions of the cistern.
Internal length of the cistern = 135 − (2.5 + 2.5) cm  = 130 cm
Internal breadth of the cistern = 108 − (2.5 + 2.5) = 103 cm                    [ Subtracting the thickness of iron from both sides ]
Internal height of the cistern = 90 − 2.5 cm = 87.5 cm
∴ Internal volume of the cistern =

i.e., capacity of the cistern = 1171625 cm3
∴ Volume of iron used  = external volume of the cistern − internal volume of the cistern
= (1312200 − 1171625) cm3 = 140575 cm3

The radius of the base of a cone is 14 cm and its height is 24 cm. Find the volume, curved surface area and the total surface area of the cone.

Here, r = 14 cm  and h = 24 cm

Volume of the cone =

Curved surface area of the cone = $\mathrm{\pi }rl\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}$

∴ Total surface area of the cone =

#### Question 22:

Two cylindrical vessels are filled with oil. Their radii are 15 cm and 10 cm respectively and their heights are 25 cm and 18 cm respectively. Find the radius of the cylindrical vessel. 33 cm in height which will just contain the oil of the two given vessels.

The radii of two cylindrical vessels that are filled with oil are 15 cm and 10 cm .
Let r cm be the radius of the new cylindrical vessel.
Height of the new vessel = 33 cm
According to the question, we have:
Volume of two cylindrical vessels = volume of the vessel that contains liquid of both the vessels

Hence, the radius of the new cylindrical vessel is 15 cm.

#### Question 23:

The ratio of the curved surface area and the total surface area of a circular cylinder is 1 : 2 and the total surface area is 616 cm2. Find its volume.
