Surface area of cuboids: Q1. Surface area = 2 x Area of the front faces + Perimeter of the front face x length Surface area of 1st cuboid= 2( 10 x 6) + 2(10 x 3) + 2(6 x 3) ( Each individual face is a rectangle) = 120 + 60 + 36 = 216푐푚2 Or Using 2A + PL = 2 (3 x 6) + 10 (3+3+6+6) = 216푐푚2 Surface area of 2nd cuboid= 2( 5 x 11) + 2 ( 2 x 5) + 2 ( 11 x 2) = 110 + 20 + 44 = 174풄풎ퟐ Q2. Opposite faces of a cuboid have same area, so we will double each area of the rectangular face and then add them up to get the total surface area. Therefore, Surface area = 2 ( 4 x 5) + 2( 5 x 6) + 2 ( 6 x 4) = 40 + 60 + 48 = 148푐푚2 Or Surface area = 2A + PL = 2 x (4x 5) + 6 x (4+4+5+5) = 40 + 108 = 148푐푚2 Section 2. Volume of cuboids: Q1. Volume of a cuboid = Length x Width x height Volume of 1st cuboid = 2 x 6 x 4 = 48푐푚3 Volume of 2nd cuboid = 5 x 5 x 2 = 50푐푚3 S8.6 Volume Q2. Let the width of the cuboid be ‘W’. Since the volume = L x W x H Therefore, 8 x W x 3 = 120 24 W = 120 W = 120/24= 5 cm Section 3. Definition of prisms:- A 3-D Polyhedron (A 3-D shape that has straight edges and flat faces) with a constant cross-sectional area. Cuboid (Prism) Cylinder (Not a prism) Triangular Prism Sphere (Not a prism) Hemi-sphere (Not a prism) Cone (Not a prism) Hexagonal Prism Tetrahedron(Not a prism) Cuboid (Prism) Section 4. Surface area of prisms: Q1. Area of the front and the back face = 2 x Area of each triangle = 2 x ½ x base x perpendicular height = base x perpendicular height = 6 x 8 = 48푢푛푡푠2 Perimeter of triangle = 10 +10 +6 = 26 units Surface Area = 2A +PL= 48 + 12 x 26 = 360푢푛푡푠2 S8.6 Volume Q2. Surface area of the cylinder = Area of the top circle + area of the base circle + area of the curved part Area of the top circle = Area of the base = area of the circle with radius (r) of 4cm =휋푟2 = 휋(4)2 = 16 휋 푐푚2 Area of the curved part = Area of the rectangle with length of 6cm and width same as the circumference of the circular parts. Circumference of the circular parts = 2 휋r = 2 휋(4) = 8 휋 Therefore, area of the curved part = 6 x 8 휋 = 48 휋 푐푚2 Hence, Surface area of the cylinder= 16 휋 + 16 휋 + 48 휋 = 80 휋 = 251.3274123 = 251.33푐푚2 (2 d.p.) Q3. Since the labels only cover the curved part of the cylinders, we only need to find the area of the curved parts (rectangles). Radius (r) = ½ of diameter = ½ x 5.3 = 2.65 cm Height of the cylinder= length of the rectangular part= 11.4 cm Width of the rectangle = Circumference of the circle = 2휋푟 = 2휋 × 2.65 = 16.65044106 Hence, Area of one label= 11.4 x 16.65044106 = 189.8150281 푐푚2 Area of the paper required to make labels for 20 cans = 20 x 189.8150281 = 3796.300562 푐푚2 = 3796.3 푐푚2 (1 d.p) Section 5. Volume of a prism: Q1. Volume of prism = Area of cross-section x length of prism Length of this prism = 10mm Area of the cross- section of this prism= area of the front face (L-shaped) S8.6 Volume = Area of the blue vertical rectangle + Area of the white horizontal rectangle = (20 x 60) + ( 20 x 60) = 1200 + 1200 = 1400푚푚2 Volume of the prism = 1400 x 10 = 14000푚푚3 Q2. Area of a semi-circle = ½ of the area of a circle Semi-circle with radius 30cm Length of the prism Area of the cross-section= Area of the semi-circle + area of the rectangle = ½ x 휋 x(30)2 + (60 x 45) = ½ x 휋 x 900 + 2700 = 4113.716694푐푚2 Therefore, Volume of the prism = 4113.716694 x 90 2 = 370234.5025푐푚 3 = 370000푐푚 (3 s.f.) S8.6 Volume Section 6 . Volume of a cylinder: Q1. Volume of a cylinder = 휋푟2ℎ Radius (r) = 4cm, Height (h) = 8cm Therefore, Volume = 휋(4)2(8) = 휋 × 16 × 8 = 128휋 = 402.1238597푐푚3 = 402.124푐푚3(3dp) Q2. The piece of wood is half of a cylinder. Volume = ½ of the volume of the total cylinder Radius (r) = ½ x 1.2= 0.6 cm Height (h) = 350cm Volume = ½ x 휋푟2ℎ = ½ x 휋(0.6)2(350) = 1/2 x 휋 x 0.36 x 350 = 197.9203372푐푚3 3 = 198푐푚 (3 sf) Section 7. Problems involving volume and capacity: Q1. The planter is in the shape of a cuboid. Length = 3m, width = 2.5 m If the depth is 75cm = 0.75m (1cm = 1/100m) Volume of soil required = 3 x 2.5 x 0.75 = 5.625푚3 Q2. Volume = length x width x height Length = 6.2cm, width = 3.7cm, Volume = 60푐푚3 Therefore, 60 = 6.2 x 3.7 x height 60 = 22.94 x height Height = 60 / 22.94 = 2.615518745 = 2.62cm (2dp) Q2. Area of the cross-section= Area of the right angled triangle = ½ x base x height = ½ x a x b = ½ x a x 2a (Substituting b= 2a) S8.6 Volume = 푎2 Length of the prism = 10mm and volume = 40푚푚3 Therefore, 40 = 10 x 푎2 (Volume = area of cross-section x length) 4 = 푎2 (dividing by 10 both sides) a = 2mm (Square rooting both sides) Since b= 2a, b = 2 x2 = 4mm Section 8.
