Answer:

1.

1643870897163

Area of above shape = (\pi \times 7^{2})\div 2 = 77 cm^{2}

1643870896823

Area of above shape = 14\times 7 = 98cm^{2}

1643870896187

Area of above shape = 7\times 7 = 49cm^{2}

1643870894567

Area of above triangle = \frac{1}{2}\times 14\times 7=49cm^{2}

1643870911717

Area of above shape = b*h =

14\times 7=98cm^{2}

Question:(b) Write the perimeter of each shape.

45454578


1643871037982

Answer:

2.

1643871007420

Perimeter of shape = \pi \times r + 2\times r=\pi \times 7+2\times 7=36cm

1643871007699

perimeter of shape = 2\left ( l+ b \right )= 2\left ( 14+ 7 \right ) = 42 cm

1643871008242

perimeter of shape = 4\times side= 4\times 7=28cm

1643871008617

perimeter of shape = 14+11+9=34cm

1643871074104

perimeter of this shape cannot be calculated only with height and breadth,we need slant height or angle.

Screenshot%20(75) Answer:

Given:

Perimeter of square = perimeter of rectangle

\Rightarrow 4\times side = 2(length + breadth)

\Rightarrow 4\times 60 = 2(80 + breadth)

\Rightarrow 240\div 2=(80+breadth)

\Rightarrow 120=(80+breadth)

\Rightarrow (breadth)=120-80

\Rightarrow (breadth)=40

Area of square = side^{2}= 60^{2}=3600 m^{2}

Area of rectangle = = (length\times breadth)=80\times 40=3200m^{2}

Hence, the area of the square is greater than the area of the rectangle.

Question:3 The shape of a garden is rectangular in the middle and semi-circular at the ends as shown in the diagram. Find the area and the perimeter of this garden [Length of rectangle is 20 – (3.5 + 3.5) metres]. 1643871256807 Answer:

Length of rectangle is 20 – (3.5 + 3.5) metres=13 metres

Breadth of rectangle = 7 metres

diameter of circular side = 7metres

Area of garden = area of rectangle + 2 times area of semi circular part

Area of garden

=\left ( 13\times 7 \right ) + \left ( \pi \times 7^{2}\div 4 \right )

=129.5 metres^{2}

Perimetre of garden

=\left ( 2\times \pi \times r \right )+\left ( 2\times 13 \right )

=\left ( 22 \right )+\left ( 26 \right )

=48 metres

NCERT Solutions for Class 8 Maths Chapter 11 Mensuration - Topic 11.3 Area Of Trapezium

Question:1 Nazma’s sister also has a trapezium-shaped plot. Divide it into three parts as shown (Fig 11.4). Show that the area of a trapezium

WXYZ=h\frac{(a+b)}{2} .

2323

Answer:

Area of trapezium WXYZ = Area of triangle with base 'c' + area of rectangle + area of triangle with base'd'

=(\frac{1}{2}\times c\times h)+(b\times h)+\left ( \frac{1}{2}\times d\times h \right )

Taking 'h' common, we get

=(\frac{c}{2}+b+\frac{d}{2})h

=h(\frac{c+d}{2}+b)

Replacing c+d =a-b

=h(\frac{a-b}{2}+b)

=h(\frac{a+b}{2})

Hence proved that the area of a trapezium

WXYZ=h\frac{(a+b)}{2}

Question:2 If h = 10 cm, c = 6 cm, b = 12 cm, d = 4 cm, find the values of each of its parts separetely and add to find the area WXYZ. Verify it by putting the values of h, a and b in the expression \frac{h(a+b)}{2} .

2323

Answer:

2323

Area of trapezium WXYZ = Area of traingle with base'c'+area of rectangle +area of triangle with base 'd'

=\left ( \frac{1}{2}\times c\times h \right )+\left ( b\times h \right )+\left ( \frac{1}{2}\times d\times h \right )

=\left ( \frac{1}{2}\times 6\times 10 \right )+\left ( 12\times 10 \right )+\left ( \frac{1}{2}\times 4\times 10 \right )

=\left ( 30 \right )+\left ( 120 \right )+\left ( 20 \right )

=170 cm^{2}

the area WXYZ by the expression

. \frac{h(a+b)}{2}

=\frac{10 \left ( 22+12 \right )}{2}

=\frac{10 \left ( 34 \right )}{2}

=10\times 17

=170 cm^{2}

Hence,we can conclude area from given expression and calculated area is equal.

Question:4 Rukhsar painted the outside of the cabinet of measure 1 m \times 2 m \times 1.5 m . How much surface area did she cover if she painted all except the bottom of the cabinet.

456

Answer:

Required area = Total area - Area of bottom surface

Total area = 2(1\times2+ 2\times1.5 + 1.5\times1 ) = 13\ m^2

Area of bottom surface = 1\times2 = 2\ m^2

So required area = 13-2\ m^2 = 11\ m^2

Question:5 Daniel is painting the walls and ceiling of a cuboidal hall with length, breadth and height of 15 m, 10 m and 7 m respectively. From each can of paint 100 m^{2} of area is painted. How many cans of paint will she need to paint the room?

Answer:

Total area painted by Daniel :

= 2(15\times10+10\times7+7\times15) - 15\times10 ( \because Bottom surface is excluded.)

So, Area

= 650 - 150\ m^2 = 500\ m^2

No. of cans of paint required

=\frac{ 500\ m^2}{100\ m^2} = 5

Thus 5 cans of paint are required.

We can easily suggest whose volume is greater without doing any calculations:

As volume is directly proportional to the square of the radius of cylinder and directly proportional to the height of the cylinder hence

B has more Volume as compared to A because B has a larger diameter.

Verifying:

Volume of A : \pi\times r^2\times height = \pi\times (\frac{7cm}{2})^2\times 14cm =539cm^3

and Volume of B : \pi\times r^2\times height = \pi\times (\frac{14cm}{2})^2\times 7cm =1,078cm^3 .

Hence clearly we can see that the volume of cylinder B is greater than the volume of cylinder A.

The cylinder B has surface area of = 2\times \pi\times r(r+h) = 2\times \pi\times \frac{14cm}{2}(\frac{14}{2}+7) = 616cm^2 .

and the surface area of cylinder A = 2\times \pi\times r(r+h) = 2\times \pi\times \frac{7cm}{2}\times (\frac{7}{2}+14) = 385cm^2 .

The cylinder with greater volume also has greater surface area.

Question:3 Find the height of a cuboid whose base area is 180 cm 2 and volume is 900 cm 3?

Answer:

Given that the height of a cuboid whose base area is 180cm^2 and volume is 900cm^3 ;

As Volume\ of\ cuboid = Base\ area\times height

So, we have relation: 900cm^3= 180cm^2\times height

or, Height = 5cm.

Question:4 A cuboid is of dimensions 60 cm \times 54 cm \times 30 cm . How many small cubes with side 6 cm can be placed in the given cuboid?

Answer:

So given the dimensions of cuboid 60 cm \times 54 cm \times 30 cm hence it's the volume is equal to = 97,200cm^3

We have to make small cubes with side 6cm which occupies the volume = 6cm\times 6cm\times 6cm = 216cm^3

Hence we have now one cube having side length = 6cm volume = 216cm^3 .

So, total numbers of small cubes that can be placed in the given cuboid = \frac{97,200}{216} =450

Hence 450 small cubes can be placed in that cuboid.

Question:5 Find the height of the cylinder whose volume is 1.54 m 3 and diameter of the base is 140 cm ?

Answer:

Given that the volume of the cylinder is 1.54m^3 and having its diameter of base = 140cm.

So, as Volume\ of\ cylinder = Base\ area\times height ;

hence putting in the relation we get;

1.54m^3= (\pi\times (\frac{1.4m}{2})^2)\times height

The height of the cylinder would be = 1metre .

Question:6 A milk tank is in the form of cylinder whose radius is 1.5 m and length is 7 m. Find the quantity of milk in litres that can be stored in the tank?

Answer:

Volume of the cylinder = V = \Pi r^2h

\Pi (1.5)^2\times7 = 49.48\ m^3

So the quantity of milk in litres that can be stored in the tank is 49500 litres.

\left ( \because 1\ m^3 = 1000\ litres \right )

Question:7(i) If each edge of a cube is doubled,

how many times will its surface area increase?

Answer:

The surface area of cube = 6l^2

So if we double the edge l becomes 2l.

New surface area = 6(2l)^2 = 24l^2

Thus surface area becomes 4 times.

Question:7(ii) If each edge of a cube is doubled,

how many times will its volume increase?

Answer:

Volume of cube = l^3

Since l becomes 2l, so new volume is : (2l)^3 = 8l^3 .

Hence volume becomes 8 times.

Question:8 Water is pouring into a cubiodal reservoir at the rate of 60 litres per minute. If the volume of reservoir is 108\ m^3 , find the number of hours it will take to fill the reservoir.

Answer:

Given that the water is pouring into a cuboidal reservoir at the rate of 60 litres per minute.

Volume of the reservoir is 108\ m^3 , then

The number of hours it will take to fill the reservoir will be:

As we know 1m^3 = 1000L .

Then 108\ m^3 = 108,000 Litres ;

Time taken to fill the tank will be:

\frac{1,08,000litres}{60litres\ per\ minute} = 1,800 minutes

or \frac{1,800hours}{60} =30hours .
