Exercise 13a
Question 1.

Find the volume, the lateral surface area and the total surface area of the cuboid whose dimensions are:

(i) length = 12 cm, breadth = 8 cm and height = 4.5 cm

(ii) length = 26 m, breadth = 14 m and height = 6.5 m

(iii) length = 15 m, breadth = 6 m and height = 5 dm

(iv) length = 24 m, breadth = 25 cm and height = 6 m


Answer:

(i) length = 12 cm, breadth = 8 cm and height = 4.5 cm


Volume of cuboid = (length × breadth × height) = (12 × 8 × 4.5) = 432 cm3


Lateral surface area of cuboid = 2(length + breadth) × height = 2(12 + 8) × 4.5 = 180 cm2


Total surface area of cuboid = 2(length × breadth + breadth × height + height × length)


= 2(12 × 8 + 8 × 4.5 + 4.5 × 12) = 2(96 + 36 + 54) = 2 × 186 = 372 cm2


(ii) length = 26 m, breadth = 14 m and height = 6.5 m


Volume of cuboid = (length × breadth × height) = (26 × 14 × 6.5) = 2366 m3


Lateral surface area of cuboid = 2(length + breadth) × height = 2(26 + 14) × 6.5 = 520 m2


Total surface area of cuboid = 2(length × breadth + breadth × height + height × length)


= 2(26 × 14 + 14 × 6.5 + 6.5 × 26) = 2 × 624 = 1248 m2


(iii) length = 15 m, breadth = 6 m and height = 5 dm = (0.5m)


Volume of cuboid = (length × breadth × height) = (15 × 6 × 0.5) = 45 m3


Lateral surface area of cuboid = 2(length + breadth) × height = 2(15 + 6) × 0.5 = 21 m2


Total surface area of cuboid = 2(length × breadth + breadth × height + height × length)


= 2(15 × 6 + 6 × 0.5 + 0.5 × 15) = 2(90 + 3.0 + 7.5) = 2 × 100.5 = 201 m2


(iv) length = 24 m, breadth = 25 cm and height = 6 m


Volume of cuboid = (length × breadth × height) = (24 × 0.25 × 6) = 36 m3


Lateral surface area of cuboid = 2(length + breadth) × height = 2(24 + 0.25) × 6 = 291 m2


Total surface area of cuboid = 2(length × breadth + breadth × height + height × length)


= 2(24 × 0.25 + 0.25 × 6 + 6 × 24) = 303 m2



Question 2.

Find the capacity of a closed rectangular cistern whose length is 8 m, breadth 6 m and depth 2.5 m. Also, find the area of the iron sheet required to make the cistern.


Answer:

Given,


Dimensions of closed rectangular cistern = 8m × 6m × 2.5 m


Capacity of tank = volume of tank = (l × b × h) = 8 × 6 × 2.5 = 120 m3


Area of iron sheet required to make the tank = 2(lb + bh + hl) = 2(8 × 6 + 6 × 2.5 + 2.5 × 8)=2(48 + 15 + 20)= 2 × 83 = 166m2



Question 3.

The dimensions of a room are It has one door of dimensions and two windows, each of dimensions Find the cost of white washing the walls at Rs. 6.40 per square metre.


Answer:

Given,


Dimensions of room = 9m × 8m × 6.5m


Area of 4 walls = 2 (length + breadth) × height = 2 (9 + 8) × 6.5 = 13 × 17 = 221 m2


Dimensions of one door = 2m × 1.5m


Area of door = length × breadth = 2 × 1.5 = 3.0 m2


Dimensions of windows = 1.5m × 1m


Area of 2 windows = 2 (l × b) = 2 (1.5 × 1) = 3.0 m2


Hence,


Area required for white-washing = Area of 4 walls – (area of door + area of 2 windows)


= 221 – (3 + 3) = 221 – 6 = 215 m2


∵ cost of white-washing 1 m2 area = Rs. 6.40


∴ cost of white-washing 215 m2 = 6.40 × 215 = Rs. 1376.



Question 4.

How many planks of dimensions (5m × 25cm × 10cm) can be stored in a pit which is 20 m long, 6 m wide and 80 cm deep?


Answer:

Given,


Dimensions of plank;


l = 5m


b = 25cm = 0.25 m


h = 10cm = 0.10 m


Dimensions of pit;


l = 20m


b = 6m


h = 80m




Question 5.

How many bricks will be required to construct a wall 8 m long, 6 m high and 22.5 cm thick if each brick measures (25 cm × 11.25 cm × 6 cm)?


Answer:

Given,

Dimensions of wall = 8m × 6m × 22.5 cm = 800 cm × 600 cm × 22.5 cm

Dimensions of each brick = 25 cm × 11.25cm × 6 cm

Hence,

Number of bricks required =


Question 6.

A wall 15 m long, 30 cm wide and 4 m high is made of bricks, each measuring Ifof the total volume of the wall consists of mortar, how many bricks are there in the wall?


Answer:

Given,


Dimensions of wall = 15m × 30cm × 4m = 1500 cm × 30 cm × 400 cm


Dimensions of each brick = 22 cm × 12.5 cm × 7.5 cm


Volume of wall = l × b × h = 1500 × 30 × 400 = 180000000 cm3


Area of mortar = 1/12 × volume of wall =


Hence,


Area occupied by bricks only = 180000000 – 15000000 = 165000000 cm3


Number of bricks required =



Question 7.

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.


Answer:

Given,


External Dimensions of cistern = 1.35m × 1.08m × 90cm = 135cm × 108cm × 90cm


External volume of cistern = l × b × h = 135 × 108 × 90 = 1312200 cm3


Internal dimensions of cistern = length = 135 – (2.5 × 2) = 130 cm


Breadth = 108 – (2.5 × 2) = 103 cm


Height = 90 – 2.5 = 87.5 cm


∴ internal volume of cistern = 130 × 103 × 87.5 = 1171625 cm3


Volumeof iron used = (External volume – Internal volume)


= 1312200 – 1171625 = 140575 cm3



Question 8.

A river 2 m deep and 45 m wide is flowing at the rate of 3 km per hour. Find the volume of water that runs into the sea per minute.


Answer:

Given,


Depth of river (h) = 2 m


Breadth of river (b) = 45 m


Rate of flowing = 3 km/h


∴ Length = meter/min.


Volume of water = l × b × h = × 2 × 45 = 90 × 50 = 4500 m3



Question 9.

A box made of sheet metal costs Rs 1620 at Rs 30 per square metre. If the box is 5 m long and 3 m wide, find its height.


Answer:

Given,
