Exercise 76
Question 1.

Find the volume of a cone of height 7 cm and a base radius of 9 cm.


Answer:

We have


Given that,


Height of cone, h = 7 cm


Radius of cone, r = 9 cm


Volume of cone is given by


Volume = 1/3 πr2h





Thus, volume of the cone is 594 cm3.



Question 2.

If the height of a cone is 18 cm and the volume is 924 cu cm, find the radius of its base.


Answer:

We have


Given: Height, h = 18 cm


Volume = 924 cm3


We need to find the radius,


Volume of a cone is given by


Volume = 1/3 πr2h



Substituting the given values, we get





⇒ r = √49 = 7 cm


Thus, radius is 7 cm.



Question 3.

Find the volume of a cone-shaped figure if its base has a radius of 7 cm and its slant height is 25 cm.


Answer:

We have


Given: radius of cone, r = 7 cm


Slant height of cone, l = 25 cm


We need to find volume of the cone.


First, let’s find height of this cone.


In right-angled ∆BOC, using Pythagoras theorem,


BC2 = BO2 + OC2


⇒ OC2 = BC2 – BO2


⇒ OC2 = 252 – 72


⇒ OC2 = 625 – 49 = 576


⇒ OC = √576 = 24


⇒ height of cone, h = 24 cm


Now, volume of cone is given by


Volume = 1/3 πr2h


Substituting r = 7 cm and h = 24 cm in above equation,





Thus, volume is 1232 cm3.



Question 4.

A cone has a volume of 462 cu cm and a height of 9 cm. find the radius of its base.


Answer:

We have


Given: height of the cone, h = 9 cm


Volume of the cone = 462 cm3


To find radius of the cone, we know


Volume = 1/3 πr2h






⇒ r = √49 = 7 cm


Thus, radius is 7 cm.



Question 5.

The volume of a cone is 9856 cu cm. If the diameter of its base is 28 cm, what is its height and its slant height?


Answer:

We have


Given: diameter of the base of the cone = 28 cm


⇒ radius, r = 28/2 = 14 cm


Volume of the cone = 9856 cm3


We know,


Volume of cone = 1/3 πr2h






So, we have r = 14 cm and h = 48 cm. In right-angled ∆COB, using Pythagoras theorem


CB2 = OB2 + CO2


⇒ l2 = r2 + h2, where l = slant height


⇒ l2 = 142 + 482


⇒ l2 = 196 + 2304 = 2500


⇒ l = √2500 = 50


Thus, height is 48 cm and slant height is 50 cm.



Question 6.

The radius of the base of a cone is 5 cm while its height is 12 cm. Find the volume of this cone.

(Take π = 3.14)


Answer:

We have


Given: radius of the cone, r = 5 cm


Height of the cone, h = 12 cm


We know, volume of cone is given by


Volume = 1/3 πr2h


Substituting given values in the above equation, we get


Volume = 1/3 × 3.14 × 52 × 12


⇒ Volume = 942/3 = 314


Thus, volume of cone is 314 cm3.




Exercise 77
Question 1.

The slant height of a cone is 10 cm and the radius of its base is 7 cm. What is its curved surface area?


Answer:

We have


Given: slant height of the cone, l = 10 cm


Radius of the base of the cone, r = 7 cm


We need to find curved surface area of this cone.


Curved surface area of the cone is given by


CSA = πrl


Substituting the given values in the above equation,


CSA = 22/7 × 7 × 10


⇒ CSA = (22 × 7 × 10)/7


⇒ CSA = 220


Thus, curved surface area of cone is 220 cm2.



Question 2.

A cone has a slant height of 9 cm and a base radius of 7 cm. Find (i) its curved surface area (ii) total surface area.


Answer:

We have


Given: radius of the base of the cone, r = 7 cm


Slant height of the cone, l = 9 cm


(i). Curved surface area of cone is given by


CSA = πrl


⇒ CSA = 22/7 × 7 × 9


⇒ CSA = (22 × 7 × 9)/7


⇒ CSA = 198


Thus, curved surface area of cone is 198 cm2.


(ii). For total surface area of cone, just add surface area of base of cone to the curved surface area of cone.


So, we have


Total surface area = curved surface area + area of base of the cone (area of solid circle)


⇒ TSA = πrl + πr2


⇒ TSA = πr (l + r)



⇒ TSA = 22 × (9 + 7)


⇒ TSA = 22 × 16


⇒ TSA = 352


Thus, total surface area of cone is 352 cm2.



Question 3.

The radius of the base of a cone is 9 cm and its height is 40 cm. What is its curved surface area? What is its total surface area?

(π = 3.14)


Answer:

We have


Given: radius of the base of the cone, r = 9 cm


Height of the cone, h = 40 cm


First, we need to find slant height, l.


In right-angled ∆BOC, using Pythagoras theorem, we can write


BC2 = OB2 + OC2


⇒ l2 = r2 + h2


⇒ l2 = 92 + 402


⇒ l2 = 81 + 1600 = 1681


⇒ l = √1681


⇒ l = 41


Curved surface area of the cone is given by


CSA = πrl


Using r = 9 cm and l = 41 cm in above equation,


CSA = 3.14 × 9 × 41


⇒ CSA = 1158.66


Total surface area of the cone is given by


TSA = CSA + area of the base of the cone (area of solid circle)


⇒ TSA = 1158.66 + πr2


⇒ TSA = 1158.66 + (3.14 × 92)


⇒ TSA = 1158.66 + 254.34


⇒ TSA = 1413


Thus, curved surface area is 1158.66 cm2 and total surface area is 1413 cm2.



Question 4.

The height of a cone-shaped tent is 10 m and the radius of its base is 24 m.

(i) What is its slant height?

(ii) What is the amount of fabric required to make this tent? (π = 3.14)


Answer:

We have


Given: height of the conic tent, h = 10 m


Radius of its base, r = 24 m


(i). In right-angled ∆BOC, using Pythagoras theorem


BC2 = OB2 + OC2


⇒ BC2 = 242 + 102


⇒ BC2 = 576 + 100


⇒ BC2 = 676


⇒ BC = √676 = 26


⇒ l = 26


(where l = slant height of the cone)


Thus, slant height of conic tent is 26 m.


(ii). To find the amount of fabric required to make the tent, we need to find curved surface area of the cone as the fabric is required to cover the curved surface not the base of the conic tent.


So, curved surface area of cone is given by


CSA = πrl


⇒ CSA = 3.14 × 24 × 26


⇒ CSA = 1959.36


Thus, 1959.36 m2 of fabric is required to make this cone-shaped tent.



Question 5.

How much metal sheet will be required to make a cone of height 4 m and base radius 3m? (π = 3.14)


Answer:

We have


Given: radius of base of cone, r = 3 m


Height of the cone, h = 4 m


So, in right-angled ∆BOC, by using Pythagoras theorem,


BC2 = OB2 + OC2


⇒ BC2 = r2 + h2


⇒ BC2 = 32 + 42


⇒ BC2 = 9 + 16 = 25


⇒ BC = √25 = 5


⇒ l = 5 m


Slant height of cone = 5 m


Metal required to make cone will cover the curved surface of the cone. So, curved surface area of the cone is given by


CSA = πrl


⇒ CSA = 3.14 × 3 × 5


⇒ CSA = 47.1


Thus, curved surface area is 47.1 m2.



Question 6.

The slant height of an icecream cone is 12 cm and its curved surface area is 113.04 sq cm. What is the radius of the base of this cone? (π = 3.14)


Answer:

We have


Given: slant height of the cone, l = 12 cm


Curved surface area of the cone, CSA = 113.04 cm2


We know curved surface area of cone is given by


CSA = πrl, where r = radius of the base of the cone


⇒ r = CSA/πl


Substituting the given values in the above equation, we get




⇒ r = 3


Thus, radius is 3 cm.



Question 7.

The height of a cone-shaped paper hat is 24 cm and the radius of the base is 7 cm. How much paper will be required to make 10 such hats?


Answer:

We have


Given: height of the cone, h = 24 cm


Radius of the base of the cone, r = 7 cm


In right-angled ∆BOC, using Pythagoras theorem, we can write


BC2 = OB2 + OC2


⇒ BC2 = 72 + 242


⇒ BC2 = 49 + 576 = 625


⇒ BC = √625 = 25


⇒ l = 25 cm


⇒ slant height of the cone = 25 cm


If this is a hat (cone-shaped), then the paper will cover only the curved surface of the hat, not the base. Base of the hat remains open.


So, we just need to find curved surface area of the cone, which is given by


CSA = πrl


Substituting values r = 7 cm and l = 25 cm in the above equation, we get


CSA = 22/7 × 7 × 25


⇒ CSA = (22 × 7 × 25)/7


⇒ CSA = 550


The paper required to make 1 hat = 550 cm2


Then, paper required to make 10 hats = 550 × 10 = 5500 cm2


Thus, paper required to make 10 hats is 5500 cm2.




Exercise 78
Question 1.

The radius of a sphere is 30 cm, what is its volume? (π = 3.14)


Answer:

We have


It’s given that, radius of the sphere, r = 30 cm


We need to find its volume.


We know the volume of the sphere is given by


Volume = 4/3 πr3


Substituting r = 30 cm in above equation, we get


Volume = 4/3 × 3.14 × 303


⇒ Volume = (4 × 3.14 × 30 × 30 × 30)/3


⇒ Volume = 339120/3 = 113040


Thus, volume of the sphere is 113040 cm3.



Question 2.

The volume of a sphere is 36000π cu cm. What is its radius?


Answer:

Given is, volume of the sphere = 36000π cm3

And we know volume of the sphere is given by


Volume = 4/3 πr3



Substituting given value in the above equation, we get



⇒ r3 = 27000


⇒ r = (27000)1/3


⇒ r = 30


Thus, radius of the sphere is 30 cm.



Question 3.

Twenty-seven spheres of radius ’r’ were melted and one new sphere was formed. What is the radius of this sphere?


Answer:

According to the question,

There are 27 spheres, each of radius ‘r’.


Now, for 1 sphere:


Radius = r


Volume of this 1 sphere = 4/3 πr3


Then, for 27 spheres, each of radius ‘r’:


Volume = 27 × 4/3 πr3


⇒ Volume = 36 πr3 …(i)


Even if these 27 spheres were melted to make it into one new sphere, the volume remains unaltered, which means


Volume of this new sphere = Volume of 27 spheres.


By equation (i), we can say that


Volume of this new sphere = 36 πr3 …(ii)


Let radius of this new sphere formed by melting twenty-seven spheres of radius ‘r’ be ‘R’.


Now, Volume of this new sphere = 4/3 πR3 …(iii)


Comparing equations (ii) and (iii), we get


4/3 πR3 = 36 πr3


⇒ 4/3 R3 = 36 r3


⇒ 1/3 R3 = 9 r3


⇒ R3 = 3 × 9 r3


⇒ R3 = 27 r3


⇒ R3 = 33 r3


⇒ R3 = (3r)3


⇒ R = (3r)3×1/3


⇒ R = 3r


Thus, radius of this new sphere formed is 3r.

Answer:

Given is the surface area of a sphere, that is, 616 cm2.

And we know that surface area of sphere is given by


Surface area = 4 πr2


⇒ r2 = Surface area/4π



⇒ r2 = (616 × 7)/(4 × 22)


⇒ r2 = 4312/88


⇒ r2 = 49


⇒ r = √49 = 7


Thus, radius of the sphere is 7 cm.



Question 3.

If the surface area of a sphere is 314 sq cm find its volume.

(Take π = 3.14)


Answer:

Given that, surface area of sphere = 314 cm2

And we know that surface area of sphere is given by


Surface area = 4 πr2, r = radius of the sphere


⇒ r2 = Surface area/4π



⇒ r2 = (314)/(4 × 3.14)


⇒ r2 = 314/12.56


⇒ r2 = 25


⇒ r = √25 = 5


So, radius of the sphere = 5 cm


Volume of the sphere is given by


Volume = 4/3 πr3


⇒ Volume = 4/3 × 3.14 × 53


⇒ Volume = (4 × 3.14 × 5 × 5 × 5)/3


⇒ Volume = 1570/3


⇒ Volume = 523.33


Thus, volume of the sphere is 523.33 cm3.

Given is that, diameter of the inflated ball (sphere) = 18 cm

⇒ Radius of the sphere = 18/2 = 9 cm



The amount of air that this ball contain is the volume of the sphere.


So, volume of sphere is given by


Volume = 4/3 πr3


Substituting value of radius, r = 9 cm in the above equation, we get


Volume = 4/3 × 3.14 × 93


⇒ Volume = (4 × 3.14 × 9 × 9 × 9)/3


⇒ Volume = 9156.24/3


⇒ Volume = 3052.08


Surface area of the spherical ball is given by


Surface area = 4 πr2


⇒ Surface area = 4 × 3.14 × 92


⇒ Surface area = 4 × 3.14 × 9 × 9


⇒ Surface area = 1017.36


Thus, volume of inflated ball is 3052.08 cm3 and surface area of inflated ball is 1017.36 cm2.
