Question 1. Area of a triangle is 30 cm2. If its base is 10 cm, then its height is

(a) 5 cm
(b) 6 cm
(c) 7 cm
(d) 8 cm

Answer :

let h be the height of the triangle.

given

area of triangle =30cm²

base of the triangle =10cm

we know

area of triangle =1/2*b*h

or, 30cm²=1/2*10cm*h

or, 30cm²=5cm*h

or, h=30cm²/5cm

or, h=6cm

Option (b) 6 cm is correct

Question 2. If the perimeter of a square is 80 cm, then its area is

(a) 800 cm2
(b) 600 cm2
(c) 400 cm2
(d) 200 cm2

Answer :

Perimeter of a  square = 4 * length of each side
80 = 4 * length
length = 20 cm.
Area of a square = length * length
Area = 20 * 20 = 400 sq.cm
Option (c) 400 cm is  correct

Question 3. Area of a parallelogram is 48 cm2. If its height is 6 cm then its base is

(a) 8 cm
(b) 4 cm
(c) 16 cm
(d) None of these

Answer :

Area of Parallelogram = Base ×Height

Question 18. If the volume of a cube is 729 m3, then its surface area is

(a) 486 cm2
(b) 324 cm2
(c) 162 cm2
(d) None of these

Answer :

edge of the cube = a cm

volume(v)= a³

a³ = 729

a³ = (9cm)³

a = 9cm

lateral surface area = 4 a²
= 4* 9²
= 4* 81
=324cm²

total surface area = 6a²
= 6* 9²
= 6*81
= 486 cm²

Option (a) 486 cmcm is correct

Question 19.  If the total surface area of a cube is 96 cm2, then the volume of the cube is

(a) 8 cm3
(b) 512 cm3
(c) 64 cm3
(d) 27 cm3

Answer :

Surface area of a cube = 96 cm2
Surface area of a cube = 6 (Side)2 = 96 ⇒  (Side)2 = 16
(Side) = 4 cm
Volume of cube = (Side)3 = (4)3 = 64 cm3

Option (c) 64 cm3 cm is correct

Question 20. The length of the longest pole that can be put in a room of dimensions (10 m x 10 m x 5 m) is

(d) 12 m

Answer 20

ml class 9 Mensuration img 96

Option (a) 15  cm is correct

Question 21. The lateral surface area of a cube is 256 m2. The volume of the cube is

(a) 512 m3
(b) 64 m3
(c) 216 m3
(d) 256 m3

Answer 21. 

Given, lateral surface area of a cube = 256 m2

We know that, lateral surface area of a cube = 4 x (Side)2
⇒ 256 = 4 x (Side)2
⇒ (Side)2 = 256/4 = 64
⇒ Side = √64 = 8 m

Now, volume of a cube = (Side)3 = (8)= 8 x 8 x 8 = 512 m3
Hence, the volume of the cube is 512 m3.

Option (a) 512 m is correct

Question 22. If the perimeter of one face of a cube is 40 cm, then the sum of lengths of its edge is

(a) 80 cm
(b) 120 cm
(c) 160 cm
(d) 240 cm

Answer 22

One side of cube = 40 cm.

We need to find the sum of length of its edges?

Follow the below steps to find the solution

As we know the edge of one side =4

Perimeter of one side of cube=40 cm

Length of one edge = 40/ 4

Length of one edge = 10 cm.

As we know, the cube has 12 edges

Sum of length of edges = Total number of edge x length of one edge.

Sum of the length of its edges = 12 x 10

Multiply the two values which gives 120.

we got the sum of length of edges of cube is 120 cm.

Option (b) 120 cm  is correct

Question 23. A cuboid container has the capacity to hold 50 small boxes. If all the dimensions of the container are doubled, then it can hold (small boxes of same size)

(a) 100 boxes
(b) 200 boxes
(c) 400 boxes
(d) 800 boxes

Answer :

let the length, breadth and height of the container be x, y and z cm respectively.
So the volume of the container will be xyz cm³
So xyz cm³ = 50 boxes
If the dimensions of the container are doubled the the length, breadth and height of the container will be 2x, 2y and 2z
So the volume will change to 8xyz cm³
Since xyz cm³ can contain 50 boxes therefore 8xyz cm^3 can contain 50 * 8 boxes = 400 boxes
Option (c) 400 boxes is correct

Question 24. The number of planks of dimensions (4 m x 50 cm x 20 cm) that can be stored in a pit which is 16 m long, 12 m wide and 4 m deep is

(a) 1900
(b) 1920
(c) 1800
(d) 1840

Answer :

Length of the plank = 4m

= 400cm
Breadth = 50cm
Height = 20cm
Volume of the plank = L*B*H
=400*50*20
=400000cm³

Length of the pit = 16m

= 1600cm
Breadth = 12m = 1200cm
Height = 4m

= 400cm
Volume of the pit = L*B*H
= 1600*1200*400
= 768000000 cm³

Number of planks that can be fitted=
768000000/400000
=1920 planks is the answer.

Option (b) 1920 is correct
