Question 2.
If V is the volume of the cuboid of dimensions a, b, c and S its the surface area then prove that

Solution:
∵ a, b, c are the dimensions of a cuboid
∴ Volume (V) = abc
Surface area (S) = 2(ab + bc + ca)
Now

Question 3.
The areas of three adjacent faces of a cuboid are .v, y and z. If the volume is V¹ prove that V² = xyz.
Solution:
Let length of cuboid = l
Breadth = b
and height = h
Volume = Ibh
∴ x = lb,y = bh and z = hl
Now x.y.z = lb.bh.hl
= l² b² h² = (Ibh)² = V²
∴ V² = xyz Hence proved

Question 4.
A rectangular water reservoir contains 105 m3 of water. Find the depth of the water in the reservoir if its base measures 12 m by 3.5 m.
Solution:
Volume of the water in reservoir = 105 m²

and breadth (b) = 3.5 m

Question 5.
Cubes A, B, C having edges 18 cm, 24 cm and 30 cm respectively are melted and moulded into a new cube D. Find the edge of the bigger cube D.
Solution:
Edge of cube A = 18 cm
∴ Volume = a² = (18)3 cm³ = 5832 cm³
Edge of cube B = 24 cm
∴ Volume = (24)³ = 13824 cm³
Edge of cube C = 30 cm
∴Volume = (30)³ = 27000 cm³
Volume of A, B, C cubes
= 5832+ 138-24+ 27000 = 46656 cm³
Volume of cube D = 46656 cm³

Question 6.
The breadth of a room is twice its height, one half of its length and the volume of the room is 512 cu.dm. Find its dimensions.
Solution:
Volume of room = 512 cu.dm
Let height of the room (h) = x
Then breadth (b) = 2x
and length (l) = 2x x 2 = 4x.
∴ Volume = l x b x h = 4x x 2x x x = 8×3

Question 7.
A closed iron tank 12 m long, 9 m wide and 4 m deep is to be made. Determine the cost of iron sheet used at the rate of Rs 5 per metre sheet, sheet being 2 m wide.
Solution:
Length of iron tank (l) = 12 m
Breadth (b) = 9 m
Depth (h) = 4 m
∴ Surface area of the tank = 2(l x b + b x h + h x l)
= 2(12 x 9 + 9 x 4 + 4 x 12) m²
= 2(108 + 36 + 48) = 2 x 192 m²
= 384 m²
Width of sheet used = 2 m

Question 8.
A tank open at the top is made of iron sheet 4 m wide. If the dimensions of the tank are 12 m x 8 m x 6 m, find the cost of iron sheet at Rs 17.50 per metre.
Solution:
Dimensions of the open iron tank = 12mx 8m.x 6m
∴ Surface area (without top)
= 2(1 x b) x h + lb
= 2(12 + 8) x 6+12 x 8m²
= 2 x 20 x 6 + 96 = 240 + 96 m² = 336 m²
Width of sheet used = 4 m
∴ Length of sheet = \(\frac { Area }{ b }\) = \(\frac { 336 }{ 4 }\) m = 84 m b 4
Rate of sheet = Rs 17.50 per m.
∴ Total cost = Rs 17.50 x 84 = Rs 1470

Question 9.
Three equal cubes are placed adjacently in a row. Find the ratio of the total surface area of the new cuboid to that of the sum of the surface areas of the three cubes.
Solution:
Let edge of each equal cubes = x
Then, surface area of one cube = 6x²

and surface area of three cubes = 3 x 6x² = 18x²
By placing the cubes in a row,
The length of newly formed cuboid (l) = 3x
Breadth (b) = x
and height (h) = x
∴ Surface area of the cuboid so formed

Question 10.
The dimensions of a room are 12.5 m by 9 m by 7 m. There are 2 doors and 4 windows in the room; each door measures 2.5 m by 1.2 m and each window 1.5 m by 1 m. Find the cost of painting the walls at Rs 3.50 per square metre.
Solution:
Dimensions of a room = 12.5 m x 9 m x 7 m
∴ Total surface area of the walls = 2(1 + b) x h = 2(12.5 + 9) x 7 m²
= 2 x 21.5 x 7 = 301 0 m²
Area of 2 doors = 2 x (2.5 x 1.2) m² = 2 x 3.00 = 6 m²
Area of 4 windows = 4 x (1.5 x 1) m²
4 x 1.5 = 6 m²
∴ Remaining area of the walls = 301 -(6 + 6) m²
= 301 – 12 = 289 m²
∴ Rate of painting the walls = Rs 3.50 per m²
∴ Total cost = Rs 3.50 x 289 = Rs 1011.50

Question 11.
A field is 150 m long and 100 m wide. A plot (outside the field) 50 m long and 30 m wide is dug to a depth of 8 m and the earth taken out from the plot is spread evenly in the field. By how much the level of field is raised ?
Solution:
Length of the plot (l) = 50 m
Width (b) = 30 m
and depth (h) = 8 m
∴ Volume of the earth dug out = l x b x h = 50 x 30 x 8 = 12000 m³
Length of the field = 150 m
and breadth = 100 m
∴ Height of the earth spread out on the field

Question 12.
Two cubes, each of volume 512 cm³ are joined end to end, find the surface area of the resulting cuboid.
Solution:
Volume of each cube = 512 cm³

Now by joining the two equal cubes of side 8 cm, the length of so formed cuboid (l)
= 2 x 8 = 16 cm
Breadth (b) = 8 cm
and height (h) = 8 cm
∴ Surface area = 2( l x b + b x h + h x l)
= 2(16 X 8 + 8 X 8 + 8X16) cm²
= 2(128 + 64 + 128) cm²
= 2 x 320 = 640 cm²

Question 13.
Three cubes whose edges measure 3 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm respectively are melted to form a new cube. Find the surface area of the new cube formed.
Solution:
Edge of first cube = 3 cm
∴ Volume = a³ = (3)³ 27 cm³
Edge of second cube = 4 cm
∴Volume = a³ = (4)³ = 64 cm³
Edge of third cube = 5 cm
∴ Volume = a³ = (5)³ = 125 cm³
Volume of three cubes together = 27 + 64+ 125 = 216 cm³
∴ Volume of the new cube = 216 cm³

Question 14.
The cost of preparing the’walls of a room 12 m long at the rate of Rs 1.35 per square metre is Rs 340.20 and the cost of matting the floor at 85 paise per square metre is Rs 91.80. Find the height of the room.
Solution:
Length of the room (l) = 12 m
Rate of matting the floor = 85 paise per m²
Total cost of matting = Rs 91.80

Question 15.
The length of a hall is 18 m and width 12 m. The sum of the areas of the floor and the flat roof is equal to the sum of the areas of the four walls. Find the height of the wall.
Solution:
Length of hall (l) = 18 m
and breadth (b) = 12 m
∴ Area of floor = l x b = 18 x 12 = 216 m²
and area of roof = 216 m²
Total area of floor and roof
= (216 + 216) m² = 432 m²
∴ Area of four walls = 432 m²
But area of 4 walls = 2(l + b) x h
∴ 2h (l + b) = 432
⇒ 2h (18 + 12) = 432
⇒ 2h x 30 = 432 432
⇒ h = \(\frac { 432 }{ 60 }\) = 7.2m
∴ Height of the wall = 7.2 m

Question 16.
A metal cube of edge 12 cm is melted and formed into three smaller cubes. If the edges of the two smaller cubes are 6 cm and 8 cm, find the edge of the third smaller cube.
Solution:
Edge of metal bigger cube = 12 cm
∴ Volume = (12)³ = 1728 cm³
∴ Sum of volumes of 3 smaller cubes = 1728 cm³
Edge of first smaller cube = 6 cm
∴ Volume = (6)³ = 216 cm³
Edge of second smaller cube = 8 cm
∴ Volume = (8)³ = 512 cm³
Sum of volumes of two smaller cubes = 216+ 512 = 728 cm³
∴ Volume of third smaller cube = 1728-728 cm³ = 1000 cm³

Question 17.
The dimensions of a cinema hall are 100 m, 50 m and 18 m. How many persons can sit in the hall if each person requires 150 m3 of air ?
Solution:
Length of cinema hall (l) = 100 m
Breadth (b) = 50 m
and height (h) = 18 m
∴ Volume of air of the hall = l x b x h
= 100 x 50 x 18 m³
= 90000 m³
Each person requires air = 150 m³
∴ Number of persons = \(\frac { 90000 }{ 150 }\)= 600

Question 18.
The external dimensions of a closed wooden box are 48 cm, 36 cm, 30 cm. The box is made of 1.5 cm thick wood. How many bricks of size 6 cm x 3 cm x 0.75 cm can be put in this box ?
Solution:
Outer dimensions of a closed wooden box = 48 cm x 36 cm x 30 cm
Thickness of wood = 1.5 cm.
∴ Inner length (l) = 48 – 2 x 1.5 cm = 48 – 3 = 45 cm
Breadth(b) = 36-2 x 1.5 = 36-3 = 33 cm
Height (h) = 30 – 2 x 1.5 = 30 – 3 = 27 cm
∴ Volume of inner box = l x b x h = 45 x 33 x 27 cm³ = 40095 cm³
Volume of one brick of size 6 cm x 3 cm x 0.75 cm
= 6 x 3 x 0.75 = 6 x 3 x \(\frac { 3 }{ 4 }\) cm³ = \(\frac { 27 }{ 2 }\) cm³
∴ Number of bricks = \(\frac { 40095 x 2 }{ 27 }\)
= 1485 x 2 = 2970 bricks

Question 19.
The dimensions of a rectangular box are in the ratio of 2 : 3 : 4 and the difference between the cost of covering it with sheet of paper at the rates of Rs 8 and Rs 9.50 per m2 is Rs 1,248. Find the dimensions of the box.
Solution:
Ratio in the dimensions of a box =2:3:4
Difference in total cost = Rs 1,248
Difference in rates = Rs 9.50 – Rs 8 = Rs 1.50
Let length (l) = 2x
Then breadth (b) = 3x
and height (h) = 4x
∴ Surface area = 2 (l x b + b x h + h x l)
= 2(2x 3x  + 3x x 4x + 4x x 2x)
= 2(6x² + 12x² + 8 x²) = 2 x 26x² = 52x²
First rate of paper = Rs 9.50 per m²
and second rate = 8.00 per m²
∴ First cost = Rs 52x² x 9.50
and second cost = Rs 52x² x 8
∴ 52x² x 9.50 – 52x² x 8= 1248
⇒ 52x² (9.50 – 8) = 1248
⇒ 52x²(1.50) = 1248

Solution:
Length of tin (l) = 26 cm = 0.26 m
Breadth (b) = 26 cm = 0.26 m
Height (h) = 45 cm = 0.45 m
∴ Surface area = 2(l x b + b x h +h xl)
= 2(0.26 x 0.26 + 0.26 x 0.45 + 0.45 x 0.26) m²
= 2(0.0676 + 0.117 + 0.117) m²
= 2(0.3016) = 0.6032 m²
Sheet required for such 20 tins
= 0.6032 x 20= 12.064 m²
Cost of 1 m² tin sheet = 10 m
∴ Total cost = Rs 12.064 x 10 = Rs 120.64
and area of sheet = 12.064 m² = 120640 cm²

A classroom is 11 m long, 8 m wide and 5 m high. Find the sum of the areas of its floor and the four walls (including doors, windows etc.)
Solution:
Length of room (l) = 11 m
Width (b) = 8 m
and height (h) = 5 m
Area of floor = l x b = 11 x8 = 88m2
Area of four walls = 2 (l + b) x h
= 2(11 + 8) x 5 m² = 2 x 19×5 = 190 m²
∴ Total area = 88 m² + 190 m² = 278 m²

Question 11.
A swimming pool is 20 m long, 15 m wide and 3 m deep. Find the cost of repairing the floor and wall at the rate of Rs 25 per square metre.
Solution:
Length of pool (l) = 20 m
Breadth (b) = 15 m
and Depth (h) = 3 m.
Area of floor = l x b = 20 x 15 = 300 m²
and area of its walls = 2(l + b) x h
= 2(20 + 15) x 3 = 2 x 35 x 3 m² = 210 m²
∴ Total area = 300 + 210 = 510 m²
Rate of repairing it = Rs 25 per sq. metre
∴ Total cost = Rs 25 x 510 = Rs 12750

Question 12.
The perimeter of a floor of a room is 30 m and its height is 3 m. Find the area of four walls of the room.
Solution:
Perimeter of floor = 30 m
i.e. 2(1 + b) = 30 m
Height = 3 m
∴ Area of four walls = Perimeter x height = 30 x 3 = 90 m²

Question 13.
Show that the product of the areas of the floor and two adjacent walls of a cuboid is the square of its volume.
Solution:
Let length of the room = l
and breadth = b
and height = h
Volume = l x b x h
Area of floor = l x b = lb.
Area of two adjacent walls = hl x bh.
∴ Product of areas of floor and two adjacent walls of the room = lb (hi x bh)
= l²b²h² = (l.b.h)² = (Volume)²
Hence proved

Question 14.
The walls and ceiling of a room are to be plastered. The length, breadth and height of the room are 4.5, 3m and 350 cm, respectively. Find the cost of plastering at the rate of Rs 8 per square metre.
Solution:
Length of room (l) = 4.5 m
Width (b) = 3 m
and height (h) = 350 cm = 3.5 m
∴ Area of walls = 2(l + b) x h
= 2(4.5 + 3) x 3.5 m² = 2 x 7.5 x 3.5 m² = 52.5 m²
Area of ceiling = l x b = 4.5 x 3 = 13.5 m²
∴ Total area = 52.5 + 13.5 m² = 66 m²
Rate of plastering = Rs 8 per sq. m
∴ Total cost = Rs 8 x 66 = Rs 528

Question 15.
A cuboid has total surface area of 50 m² and lateral surface area its 30 m². Find the area of its base.
Solution:
Total surface area of cuboid = 50 m²
Lateral surface area = 30 m²
∴ Area of floor and ceiling = 50 – 30 = 20 m²
But area of floor = area of ceiling
∴ Area of base (floor) = \(\frac { 20 }{ 2 }\) = 10 m²

Question 16.
A classroom is 7 m long, 6 m broad and 3.5 m high. Doors and windows occupy an area of 17 m². What is the cost of white-washing the walls at the rate of Rs 1.50 per m².
Solution:
Length of room (l) = 7 m
Breadth (b) = 6 m
and height (h) = 3.5 m
∴ Area of four walls = 2(1 + b) x h
= 2(7 + 6) x 3.5 m² = 2 x 13 x 3.5 = 91 m²
Area of doors and windows = 17 m2
∴ Remaining area of walls = 91 – 17 = 74 m²
Rate of whitewashing = Rs 1.50 per m²
∴ Total cost = 74 x Rs 1.50 = Rs 111

Question 17.
The central hall of a school is 80 m long and 8 m high. It has 10 doors each of size 3 m x 1.5 m and 10 windows each of size 1.5 m x l m. If the cost of the white-washing the walls of the hall at the rate of Rs 1.20 per m² is Rs 2385.60, find the breadth of the hall.
Solution:
Length of hall (l) = 80 m
Height (h) = 8 m
Size of each door = 3 m x 1.5 m
∴ Area of 10 doors = 3 x 1,5 x 10 m²
= 45 m²
A size of each windows = 1.5 m x 1 m
∴ Area of 10 windows = 1.5 m x 1 x 10= 15 m²
Total cost of whitewashing the walls = Rs 2385.60
Rate of whitewashing = Rs 1.20 per m²
∴ Area of walls which are whitewashed

Draw XOX’ and YOY’ the co-ordinates axis on the graph.
Take 1 cm = 1 unit
Point A (5, 0), B (5, 1) and C (5, 8) have been plotted on the graph. By joining A, B and C, we see that these points lie on the same line which is 5 units from y-axis.

Question 2.
Plot the points (2, 8), (7, 8) and (12, 8). Join these points in pairs. Do they lie on a line ? What do you observe ?
Solution:
Draw XOX’ and YOY’, the co-ordinate axis on the graph.
Take 0.5 cm = 1 unit.
Now points A (2, 8), B (7, 8), and C (12, 8) have been plotted on the graph. By joining them, we see that these points lie on the same line which is at a distance of 8 unit from x-axis.

(iv) (1,4), (2, 4), (3, 4), (4,4)

Question 4.
Find the coordinates of points A, B, C, D in the figure

Solution:
Draw perpendicular from A, B, C and D on x-axis and also on y-axis.
A is 1 unit from y-axis and 1 unit from x-axis.
∴ Co-ordinates of A are (1,1)
B is 1 unit fr onr y-axis and 4 units from x-axis
∴ Co-ordinates of B are (1,4)
C is 4 units from y-axis and 6 units from x-axis
∴ Co-ordinates of C are (4, 6)
D is 5 units fromy-axis and 3 units from x-axis
∴ Co-ordinates of D are (5,3)

Question 5.
Find the coordinates of points P, Q, R and S in Fig.

Solution:
Through P, Q, R and S, draw perpendiculars on x-axis and also on y-axis.
(i) P is 10 units form >’-axis and 70 units from y-axis
∴ Co-ordinates of P are (10, 70)
(ii) Q is 12 unit from x-axis and 80 units from y-axis
∴ Co-ordinates of Q are (12, 80)
(iii) R is 16 units from x-axis and 100 units from y-axis
∴ Co-ordinates of R are (16, 100)
(iv) S is 20 units from x-axis and 120 units from y-axis
∴ Co-ordinates of S are (20, 120)

Question 6.
Write the coordinates of each of the vertices of each polygon in the figure.

Solution:
(i) In figure OXYZ
Co-ordinates of O are (0, 0) ∵It is the origin
Co-ordinates of X are (0, 2) ∵ It lies on y – axis
Co-ordinates of Y are (2, 2)
Co-ordinates of Z are (2, 0) ∵It lies on x-axis
(ii) In figure ABCD, draw perpendicular from A, B, C, D on x-axis and y-axis.
A is 4 unit from y-axis and 5 units from x- axis
∴ Co-ordinates of A are (4, 5)
B is 7 units from y-axis and 5 units from x – axis
∴ Co-ordinates of B are (7, 5)
C is 6 units from y-axis and 3 units from x- axis
∴ Co-ordinates of C are (6, 3)
D is 3 units from y-axis as well x-axis
∴ Co-ordinates of D are (3, 3)
(iii) In figure PQR, perpendiculars for P, Q, R are drawn on x-axis and also on y-axis.
∴ Co-ordinates of P are (7, 4), of Q are (9, 5) and of R are (9, 3).
