Previous Exams Questions
Question 1.
Find the volume and total surface area of a hemisphere whose radius is 35 cm ?
Solution:
Radius of the hemisphere (r) = 35 cm.
Volume of the hemisphere = \(\frac{2}{3}\) πr3
= \(\frac{2}{3}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 35 × 35 × 35
= \(\frac{269500}{3}\) cm3 = 89833 \(\frac{1}{3}\) cm3
Total surface area = 3πr2
= 3 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 35 × 35 = 11550 cm2
Question 2.
The radius of a conical tent is 5m and its height is 12m. Calculate the length of the canvas used in making the tent if width of canvas is 2 cm.
Solution:
Radius of the conical tent (r) = 5 m.
Height of the tent (h) = 12 m.
Slant height of the cone
(l) = \(\sqrt{r^2+h^2}\)
= \(\sqrt{5^2+12^2}\)
= \(\sqrt{25+144}\) = \(169\) = 13 m
Now, surface area of the tent = πrl
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 5 × 13 = \(\frac{1430}{7}\) m
Area of the canvas used = \(\frac{1430}{7}\) m
It is given that the width of the canvas = 2 m
Length of the canvas used = \(\frac{\text { Area }}{\text { Width }}\)
= \(\frac{1430}{7}\) × \(\frac{1}{2}\) = 102.14 m
Question 3.
If a cylinder and cone are of the same radius and height, then how many cones full of milk can fill the cylinder ? Answer with reasons. (Mar. ’15 (T.S)
Solution:
Volume of the cylinder is three times to the volume of the cone if they have same radius and height.
Question 4.
A medicine capsule is in the shape of a cylinder with two hemispheres stock to each of its ends. If the length of cylinder) part is 14mm and the diameter of hemi-sphere is 6 mm, then find the volume of medicine capsule. (Mar. ’15 (T.S)
Solution:
Volume of the capsule.
= volume of the cylinder + 2x volume of the hemisphere
= πr2h + 2 × (\(\frac{2}{3}\) πr3)
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 32 × 14 + \(\frac{4}{3}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 32
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 16
= 16π cubic millimetre.
Question 5.
State the relation between r and l (slant height) of a cone.
Solution:
Slant height (l) = \(\sqrt{r^2+h^2}\)
Question 6.
The radius of a spherical balloon in creases from 7 cm to 14 cm as air is pumped into it. Find the ratio of volumes of balloon before and after pumping thef air. (Mar. ’15 (T.S.))
Solution:
Radius of radius = r1 : r2 = 7 : 14 = 1 : 2
Ratio of volumes = r13 : r23 = 13 : 23 = 1 : 8
Question 7.
A conical solid block is exactly fitted inside the cubical box of side ‘a’ then the volume of conical solid block is \(\frac{4}{3}\)πa3. Is this statement true. Justify. (Mar. ’16 (T.S))
Solution:
The cone is exactly fitted inside the cubical box.
So height of cone = a = side of cube a
Radius of cone = \(\frac{\mathrm{a}}{2}\)
Volume of cone = \(\frac{1}{3}\)πr2 h
= \(\frac{1}{3}\) . π . \(\left(\frac{\mathrm{a}}{2}\right)^2\) . a = \(\frac{1}{3}\) . π . \(\frac{\mathrm{a}^2}{4}\) . a
= \(\frac{1}{3} \frac{\pi a^3}{4}\) = \(\frac{1}{12}\) πa3
But to say \(\frac{4}{3}\) πa3 is not correct.
Question 8.
If the surface area of a hemisphere is ‘S’ then express ‘r’ interms of ‘s’. (Mar. ’16 (T.S))
Solution:
The surface area of a hemisphere = 2πr2 = S
⇒ r2 = \(\frac{S}{2 \pi}\)
∴ r = \(\sqrt{\frac{5}{2 \pi}}\)
Question 9.
Find the volume and surface area of a sphere of radius 42 cm.
Solution:
Radius of the sphere (r) = 42 cm
Curved surface area (A) = 4πr2
= 4 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 42 × 42 = 22,176 cm2
Volume of sphere V = \(\frac{4}{3}\) πr2
= \(\frac{4}{3}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 42 × 42 × 42
= 3,10,464 cm2
Question 10.
A solid metallic ball of volume 64 cm3 is melted and made into a solid cube. Find the side of solid cube. (Mar. ’16 (T.S))
Solution:
Volume of solid metal = volume of cube
= 64 cm3
∴ Volume of cube = s3 = 64 cm
S = \(\sqrt[3]{64}\) = 4 cm
So side of the cube = 4 cm
Question 11.
DWACRA is supplied cuboidal shaped wax block with measurements 88 cm x 42 cm x 35 cm. From this how many number of cylinderical candles of 2.8 cm diametre and 8 cm of height can be prepared ? (Mar. ’16 (T.S))
Solution:
Shape of wax block = cuboid
Its length (l) = 88 cm
breath (b) =42 cm
height (h) = 35 cm
Then the volume of wax present in block
= lbh = 88 × 42 × 35 cm3 ………….. (1)
Shape of candle = cylinder
Diameter of candle = (d) = 2.8 cm
⇒ radius = r = \(\frac{2.8}{2}\) = 1.4 cm
height (h) = 8 cm
Volume of wax required to make one candle
V = πr2h
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 1.4 × 1.4 × 8 cm3
∴ Total number of candles that can be
Total volume of block made = \(\frac{\text { Total volume of block }}{\text { Volume of each candle }}\)
= \(\frac{88 \times 42 \times 35}{\frac{22}{7} \times 1.4 \times 1.4 \times 8}\) = 2625
So, 2625 candles can be made with given measurements.

Diameter of the cylinder = d = 14 cm
∴ Radius of the base = r = \(\frac{\mathrm{d}}{2}\) = \(\frac{14}{2}\) = 7 cm
Height of the cylinder = h = 20 cm.
Volume of the cylinder = v = πr2h
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 7 × 7 × 20
= 3.080 cm3
∴ Total volume of 60 rods = 60 × 3080
= 1,84,800 cm3

A heap of rice is in the form of a cone of diameter 10 m and height 12m. Find its volume. How much Canvas cloth is required to cover the heap ?
Solution:
Diameter of the heap = d = 10 m
∴ Radius = r = \(\frac{\mathrm{d}}{2}\) = \(\frac{10}{2}\) = 5 m
Height of the cone = h = 12 cm
Slant height = l = \(\sqrt{r^2+h^2}\)
= \(\sqrt{5^2+12^2}\)
= \(\sqrt{25+144}\)
= \(\sqrt{169}\)
= 13 cm
Volume of the heap of rice = \(\frac{1}{3}\) πr2h
= \(\frac{1}{3}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 5 × 5 × 12
= 314.29 m3
Canvas cloth required to cover the cap = surface area of the conical heap = πrl
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 5 × 13
= 204.29 m2
Question 5.
The curved surface area of a cone is 5170 cm2 and its diameter is 84 cm. What is its slant height ?
Solution:
Diameter of the base of the cone = d = 84 cm
∴ Radius of the base = r = \(\frac{\mathrm{d}}{2}\) = \(\frac{84}{2}\) =42 cm
Curved surface area of the cone = πrl
By problem, πrl = 5170
\(\frac{22}{7}\) × 42 × l = 5170
⇒ l = \(\frac{5170 \times 7}{22 \times 42}\) = 39.16cm.
Hence, the slant height of the cone = 39.16 cm.
Question 6.
A cone of height 32 cm and radius 8 cm is made up of modelling clay. A child reshapes it in the form of a sphere. Find the radius of the sphere.
Solution:
Given Height of the cone = h = 32 cm.
radius of the cone = r = 8 cm.
Let R = Radius of the sphere.
Since cone resphaes in the form of a sphere Volume of the cone = volume of the sphere
⇒ \(\frac{1}{3}\) πr2h = \(\frac{4}{3}\) πR3
⇒ \(\frac{1}{3}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 8 × 8 × 32 = \(\frac{4}{3}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × R3
⇒ 8 × 8 × 8 = R3
⇒ R3 = 83
⇒ R = 8
Hence the radius of the sphere = R = 8 cm.
Question 7.
A metallic sphere of radius 4.9 cm is melted and recast in to the shape of a cylinder of radius 7 cm. Find the height of the cylinder.
Solution:
Let height of cylinder = h
Given radius of sphere = R = 4.9 cm
and Radius of cylinder = r = 7 cm
since sphere is melted in to the shape of a cylinder.
volume of the sphere = volume of the cylinder
⇒ \(\frac{4}{3}\) πR3 = πr2h
⇒ \(\frac{4}{3}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × (4.9)3 = \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 72 × h
⇒ h = \(\frac{4}{3}\) x \(\frac{4.9 \times 4.9 \times 4.9}{7 \times 7}\)
h = 3.2 cm.
Hence the height of the cylinder = h = 3.20 cm
Question 8.
The rain water from a roof of 33m × 30m drains into a cylindrical vessel having diameter of base 4m and height 4.2m. If the vessel is just full, find the rain fall in cm.
Solution:
Dimensions of the roof = 33m × 30m
Diameter of cylindrical vessel = d = 4m
∴ Radius = r = \(\frac{\mathrm{d}}{2}\) = \(\frac{4}{2}\) = 2m
and height of vessel = h = 4.2 m. :
Let H = height of the rain fall
Now, volume of the rain fall = volume of the drained water in the cylindrical vessel
33 × 30 × H = πr2h
⇒ 33 × 30 × H = \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 2 × 2 × 4.2
⇒ H = \(\frac{22}{7}\) × \(\frac{2 \times 2 \times 4.2}{33 \times 30}\)
= 0.053 cm
H = 5.3 cm
∴ Rain fall = 5.3 cm

Given radii of the hollow spherical shell = 2 cm and 4 cm
Let r1 = 4 cm, r2 = 2 cm and h = height solid! cylinder and Radius of solid cylinder = r =1
2\(\sqrt{2}\) cm. since hollow spherical shell melt and recast in to solid cylinder.
∴ volume of the follow spherical shell = volume of the solid cylinder
⇒ \(\frac{4 \pi}{3}\) (r13 – r23) = π – r2h
⇒ \(\frac{4}{3}\) (r13 – r23) = r2h
⇒ \(\frac{4}{3}\) (43 – 23) = (2\(\sqrt{2}\))2h
⇒ \(\frac{4}{3}\) (64 – 8) = 4 × 2 × h
⇒ \(\frac{4}{3}\) × 56 = 8 × h
⇒ h = \(\frac{4}{3}\) × \(\frac{56}{8}\) = \(\frac{28}{3}\) cm
∴ Height of the cylinder = h = \(\frac{28}{3}\) cm
Question 10.
A cylindrical bucket, 36 cm high and with radius of base 16 cm is filled with rice. This bucket is emptied out on the ground and a conical heap of rice is formed. If the height of the comical heap is 27 cm. find the radius d slant height of the heap.
Solution:
Given height of cylindrical bucket = 36 cm = h
and radius = 16 cm = r
Let height of conical heap = 27cm = H
and Radius of conical heap = R
slant height of the heap = I
Since the rice is carried and emptied by cylindrical bucket to form a conical heap,
Volume of cylindrical bucket = volume of conical heap.
Hence, Radius of heap = R = 32 cm
and slant height of the heap = l = 41.86 m
Question 11.
Find the total surface area of a hemi-sphere of radius 2.8 cm.
Solution:
Given radius of hemi-sphere = 2.8 cm
= 3 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × (2.8)2

= \(\frac{1}{3}\) π × (4)2 × 16
= \(\frac{1}{3}\) π × 4 × 4 × 16
Since, the volume of the clay is in the form of the cone and the sphere remains the same, we have
volume of sphere = volume of the cone
\(\frac{4}{3}\) πr3 = \(\frac{1}{3}\) π × 4 × 4 × 16
r3 = \(\frac{1}{3}\) × 4 × 4 × 16 × \(\frac{3}{4}\)
r3 = 64 = 43
∴ r = 4
∴ The radius of the sphere = 4
Question 13.
A storage tank consists of a circular cylinder with a hemi-sphere stuck on either end. If the external diameter of the cylinder be 1.4 m and its length be 8 m find the cost of painting it on the out side at rate of ₹ 20 per m2.
Solution:
Total surface area of the tank
= 2 × C.S.A of the hemisphere +C.S.A of cylinder
Hemisphere :
Radius (r) = \(\frac{\text { diamater }}{2}\)
= \(\frac{1.4}{2}\) = 0.7 m
C.S.A of hemi-sphere = 2 πr2
= 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 0.7 × 0.7
= 3.08 m2
2 × C.S.A = 2 × 3.08 m2 = 6.16 m2
Cylinder : Radius (r) = \(\frac{\text { diamater }}{2}\) = \(\frac{1.4}{2}\) = 0.7 m
Height (h) = 8 m
C.S.A. of cylinder = 2πrh
= 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 0.7 × 8 = 35.2 m2
∴ Total surface area of the cylinder storage tank = 35.2 + 6.16 = 41.36 m2
cost of painting its surface area @ 20 per sq.m is = 41.36 × 20 = ₹ 827.2
Question 14.
How many spherical balls can be made out of a solid cube of lead whose edge measures 44 cm and each ball being 4 cm in diameter.
Solution:
Side of lead cube = 44 cm
Radius of spherical balls = \(\frac{4}{2}\) cm = 2 cm
Now, volume of spherical ball = \(\frac{4}{3}\) πr3
= \(\frac{4}{3}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 23 cm3
= \(\frac{4}{3}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 8 cm3
Volume of x spherical balls = \(\frac{4}{3}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 8 × x cm3
It is clear that volume of x spherical balls = volume of lead cube.
⇒ \(\frac{4}{3}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 8 × x = 44 × 44 × 44
⇒ x = \(\frac{44 \times 44 \times 44 \times 3 \times 7}{4 \times 22 \times 8}\)
x = 2541
Hence, total number of spherical balls = 2541

Question 16.
Self help group wants to manufacture Joker’s caps (conical caps) of 6 cm radius and 8 cm hight. If the available colour paper sheet is 1000 cm2 then how many caps can be manufactured from that paper.
Solution:
Radius of Joker’s cap = r = 6 cm
height of Joker’s cap = h = 8 cm
Now l = \(\sqrt{r^2+h^2}\) = \(\sqrt{6^2+8^2}\)
= \(\sqrt{36+64}\) = \(\sqrt{100}\) = 10 cm
Now, surface area of one cap = πrl
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 6 × 10 = 188.57 cm2
But area of available colour paper sheet = 1000 cm2
Number of caps Manufactured from that colour paper = \(\frac{\text { Area of colour paper sheet }}{\text { Surface area of are cap }}\)
= \(\frac{1000}{188.57}\) = 5.303 = 5
Question 17.
A cone of height 24 cm and radius of base 6 cm is made up modelling clay. A child reshapes it into a sphere. Find the radius of the sphere.
Solution:
Volume of cone = \(\frac{1}{3}\) π × 6 × 6 × 24 cm3
If r is the radius of the sphere, then its volume is \(\frac{4}{3}\) πr3
Since the volume of clay in the form of the cone and the sphere remains the same, we have
\(\frac{4}{3}\) πr3 = \(\frac{1}{3}\) π × 6 × 6 × 24
r3 = 3 × 3 × 24 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 8
r3 = 33 × 23
r = 3 × 2 = 6
Therefore the radius of the sphere is 6 cm.
Question 18.
A rectangular park is to be designed. Its breadth is 3m less than its length. Its area is to be 4 square meters more than the area of park that has already been made in the shape of an isosceles triangle with base as the breadth of the rectangular park and altitude 12m. Find the length and breadth.
Solution:
Let the breadth of the rectangular park be x m.
So, its length = (x + 3) m.
Therefore, the area of the rectangular park
= x(x + 3)m2 = (x2 + 3x)m2.
Now, base of the isosceles triangle = x m.
Therefore, its area = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × x × 12
= 6x m2
According to our requirements,
x2 – 3x = 6x + 4
i.e., x2 – 3x – 4 = 0
Using the quadratic formula, we get
x = \(\frac{3 \pm \sqrt{25}}{2}\) = \(\frac{3+5}{2}\) = 4 or -1.
But x ≠ -1. Therefore, x = 4.
So, the breadth of the park = 4m and its length will be x + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7m.
Verification :
Area of rectangular park = 28 m2
Area of triangular park = 24 m2 = (28 – 4) m2.
