saplings of pudina in her kitchen garden. The saplings are cylindrical in shape with
diameter 14.2 cm and height 11 cm.

Based on the above information, solve the following questions:

Q1. If Avantika wants to paint the outer surface of the pot, then how much area she
needs to paint?
a. 6400 cm²
b. 5600 cm²
c. 4200 cm²
d. 2025 cm²

Q2. What is the volume of the pot formed?


a. 32000 cm³
b. 20250 cm³
c. 40000 cm³
d. 10125 cm³

Q3. If Avantika decorates the four walls of the pot with coloured square paper of side 10
cm each, then how many pieces of papers would be required?
a. 120
b. 54
c. 160
d. 40

Q4. Find the volume of 1 sapling.


a. 1742.75 cm³
b. 4548.16 cm³
c. 1764.08 cm³
d. None of these

Q5. If Avantika planted 4 saplings in the pot with some soil and compost up to the brim
of the pot, then how much soil and compost are there in the pot?
a. 12612 cm³
b. 25029 cm³
c. 21975 cm³
d. None of these

Solutions
1. Given, edge of each cubical box (a) = 20 cm
:- Area to be painted = Area of (24-6-4) ie., 14 square faces
= 14 a² = 14 (20)² = 5600 cm²
So, option (b) is correct.

2. From figure,
Length of the pot (l) = 20 cm
Breadth of the pot (b) = 20 x 4 = 80 cm
and height of the pot (h) = 20 cm
Volume of pot = lbh = 20 x 80 x 20
= 32000 cm³
So, option (a) is correct.

3. Area of four walls = 2(l + b) x h


=2 (20+80) × 20 = 4000 cm²
Given, side of coloured square paper = 10 cm
Now, area of a square paper = (10)² = 100 cm²
4. Given, height of sapling (H) = 11 cm
and diameter of sapling = 14.2 cm

5. Total volume of pot = 32000 cm³


Volume of 4 saplings = 1742.75 x 4 = 6971 cm³
:- Volume of compost and soil
32000 - 6971
=25029 cm³
So, option (b) is correct.

Case Study 2
In some Muslim countries, eating in public during day-light hours in Ramadan is crime.
The sale of alcohol becomes prohibited during Ramadan and alcohol is completely
restricted in Ramadan Mela. At a Ramadan Mela, a stall keeper in one of the food stalls
has a large cylindrical vessel of base radius 15 cm filled up to a height of 32 cm with
orange juice. The juice is filled in small glasses, each small glass consist of a 6 cm long
cylindrical portion attached to a hemisphere of radius 3 cm and sold for Rs15 each.

Based on the above information, solve the following questions:


Q1. The volume of juice in the vessel is:
a. 1200 π cm³
b. 4200 π cm³
c. 5200 π cm³
d. 7200 π cm³

Q2. The capacity of each small glass is:


a. 72 π cm³
b. 42 π cm³
c. 32 π cm³
d. 64 π cm³

Q3. Number of glasses of juice that are sold:


a. 10
b. 50
c. 100
d. 90

Q4. How much money does the stall keeper receive by selling the juice completely?
a. 1500
b. 750
c. 1250
d. 1750

Q5. If 1/4 part of juice fall initially by stall keeper and then sold remaining juice for 25
each. How much money does the stall keeper receive by selling the remaining juice
completely?
a. 550
b. 1875
c. 650
d. 750

Solutions
1. Given that.
Radius of the cylindrical vessel (R) = 15 cm
and height of the cylindrical vessel (H) = 32 cm
:- The volume of juice in the vessel
=Volume of the cylindrical vessel
=лR²H
= x 15 x 15 x 32 = 7200 cm³
So, option (d) is correct.

2. Given that,
Height of the small glass (h) = 6 cm
and radius of the small glass (r)
= Radius of cylinder = Radius of hemisphere
= 3 cm
:- The capacity of juice in each glass can hold
=Volume of each small glass
= Volume of small cylinder
+ Volume of small hemisphere

3. The number of glasses of juice that are sold

4. Amount received by the stall keeper


= 15 x 100 = 1500
So, option (a) is correct.

5. The volume of juice in the vessel = 7200π cm³


Case Study 3
A wooden toy is shown in the picture. This is a cuboidal wooden block of dimensions 14
cm x 17cm x 4 cm. On its top there are seven cylindrical
hollows for bees to fit in. Each cylindrical hollow is of height 3 cm and radius 2 cm.

Based on the above information, solve the following questions: [CBSE 2023]

Q1. Find the volume of wood carved out to make one cylindrical hollow.

Q2. Find the lateral surface area of the cuboid to paint it with green colour.

Q3. (a) Find the volume of wood in the remaining cuboid after carving out seven
cylindrical hollows.

Or

(b) Find the surface area of the top surface of the cuboid to be painted yellow.
Solutions
1. Given, height of the hollow cylinder (h) = 3 cm
and radius of the hollow cylinder (r) = 2 cm
So, the volume of wood carved out to make one cylindrical hollow
= volume of a hollow cylinder

2. Given, length of the cuboidal wooden block (() = 14 cm,


breadth of the cuboidal wooden block (b) = 17 cm
and height of the cuboidal wooden block (h) = 4 cm
:- Lateral surface area of the cuboid to paint it with green colour
= 2 (l + b) x h
=2 (14+17) × 4
=2x 31 x 4 = 248 cm²

3. Volume of cuboidal wooden block = lxbxh


= 14 x 17 x 4
= 952 cm²
and volume of seven cylindrical hollows
= 7 x volume of a hollow cylinder

:- The volume of wood in the remaining cuboid after carving out seven cylindrical
hollows.
= volume of cuboidal block volume of seven cylindrical hollows.
=952-264-688 cm³

Or

Surface area of the top surface of the cuboid


=lx b=14x17=238 cm²
and curved surface area of seven circular region
;- The surface area of the top surface of the cuboid to be painted yellow surface area of
the top surface of the cuboid - C.S.A of seven circular region
= 238-88 = 150 cm².

Case Study 4
In a coffee shop, coffee is served in two types of cups. One is cylindrical in shape with
diameter 7 cm and height 14 cm and the other is hemispherical with diameter 21 cm.

Based on the above information, solve the following questions: [CBSE 2023]

Q1. Find the area of the base of the cylindrical cup.

Q2. What is the curved surface area of the cylindrical cup?

Q3. What is the capacity of the hemispherical cup?

Or

Find the capacity of the cylindrical cup.

Solutions
1. Let rand h be the radius and height of the cylindrical cup respectively.
Given, diameter of the base = 7 cm

So, base area of the cylindrical cup = π г2


2. In cylindrical cup.

3. Let R be the radius of the hemispherical cup.


.. Given, diameter of hemispherical cup = 21 cm

Case Study 5
On diwali festival, a big company decided to gift his employees an electric kettle which
was in a shape of cylinder and gift wrapped in the cubical box. The dimension of box is
20 cm x 15 cm × 30 cm and the radius and height of electrical kettle are 14 cm and 25
cm.
Based on the above information, solve the following questions:

Q1. Find the volume of the box.

Q2. Find the maximum length of rod that can be kept in the box.

Q3. Find the area of the wrapping sheet that covers the box exactly.

Or

Find the total surface area of an electric kettle.

Solutions
1. Given, dimension of a box is l = 20 cm, b = 15 cm
and h= 30 cm
The volume of the box = lbh
= 20 x 15 x 30 = 9000 cm³,
Hence, volume of the box is 9000 cm³.

2.

3. The area of the wrapping sheet that covers the box is equal to the surface area of the
box.
:- Surface area of the box = 2 (lb+bh+hl)
= 2 (20 × 15 +15 × 30 + 30 x 20)
= 2 (300+ 450+600)
= 2 (1350) = 2700 cm².
Hence, the area of the wrapping sheet that covers the box exactly is 2700 cm².

Or
Given, radius and height of an electric kettle are
r=14 cm and h=25 cm.
:- The total surface area of an electric kettle
= total surface area of cylinder
= 2πr (h+r)
= 2 x 3.14 x 14 (25 +14)
= 87.92 x 393428.88 cm²
Hence, surface area of an electric kettle is 3428.88 cm².
