Exercise – 21 A Surface Area Volume Capacity ICSE Class-8th Concise Mathematics Selina Solutions (Cuboid, Cube and Cylinder )
Question 1.
Find the volume and the total surface area of a cuboid, whose :
(i) length = 15 cm, breadth = 10 cm and height = 8 cm.
(ii) l = 3.5 m, b = 2.6 m and h = 90 cm,
Answer
(i) Length =15 cm, Breadth = 10 cm, Height = 8 cm.
Volume of a cuboid = Length x Breadth x Height = 15 x 10 x 8 =1200 cm3.
Total surface area of a cuboid 2 (l x b + b x h + h x l) = 2 (15 x 10 + 10 x 8 + 8 x 15) = 2(150 + 80 +120) = 2 x 350 = 700 cm2
(ii) Length = 3.5 m Breadth = 2.6 m, Height = 90 cm = 90/100 m = 0.9 m.
Volume of a cuboid = l x b x h = 3.5 x 2.6 x 0.9 = 8.19 m3
Total surface area of a cuboid = 2(l x b + b x h + h x l)
= 2 (3.5 x 2.6 + 2.6 x 0.9 + 0.9 x 3.5) = 2 (910 + 2.34 + 3.15) = 2(14.59)= 29.18 m2

Question 3.
The length, breadth and height of a cuboid are in the ratio 5 : 3 : 2. If its volume is 240 cm3; find its dimensions. (Dimensions means : its length, breadth and height). Also find the total surface area of the cuboid.
Answer
Length of the given cuboid = 5x
Breadth of the given cuboid = 3x
Height of the given cuboid = 2x
Volume of the given cuboid = Length x Breadth x Height
= 5x x 3x x 2x = 30x3
But we are given volume = 240 cm3
30x3 = 240 cm3
⇒ x3 = 240/30
⇒ x3 = 8
⇒ x = 813
⇒ x = (2×2×2)13
⇒ x = 2 cm
Length of the given cube = 5x = 5 x 2 = 10 cm
Breadth of the given cube = 3x = 3 x 2 = 6 cm
Height of the given cube = 2x = 2 x 2 = 4cm
Total surface area of the given cuboid = 2(l x b + b x h + h x l)
= 2(10 x 6 + 6 x 4 + 4 x 10) = 2(60 + 24 + 40) = 2 x 124
= 248 cm2
The length, breadth and height of a cuboid are in the ratio 6 : 5 : 3. If its total surface area is 504 cm2; find its dimensions. Also, find the volume of the cuboid.
Answer
Length of the cuboid = 6x
Breadth of the cuboid = 5x
Height of the cuboid = 3x
Total surface area of the given cuboid = 2 (I x b + b x h + h x l)
= 2(6x x 5x + 5x x 3x + 3x x 6x) = 2(30×2 + 15×2 + 18×2)
= 2 x 63×2 = 126x2
But we are given total surface area of the given cuboid = 504 cm2
126x2 = 504 cm2
=> x2 = 504/126
=> x2 = 4
=> x = √4
=> x = 2 cm.
Length of the cuboid = 6x = 6 x 2 = 12 cm
Breadth of the cuboid = 5x = 5 x 2 = 10cm
Height of the cuboid = 3x = 3 x 2 = 6 cm
Volume of the cuboid = l x b x h = 12 x 10 x 6 = 720 cm3

Question 7.
The total surface area of a cube is 216 cm2. Find its volume.
Answer
6(Edge)2 = Total surface area of a cube
6(Edge)2 = 216 cm2
=> (Edge)2 = 216/6
=> (Edge)2 = √36
=> Edge = 36
=> Edge = 6 cm
Volume of the given cube = (Edge)3 = (6)3
= 6 x 6 x 6
= 216 cm3
Question 8.

Question 9.
A wall 9 m long, 6 m high and 20 cm thick, is to be constructed using bricks of dimensions 30 cm, 15 cm and 10 cm. How many bricks will be required.
Answer
Length of the wall = 9 m = 9 x 100 cm = 900 cm
Height of the wall = 6 m = 6 x 100 cm = 600 cm
Breadth of the wall = 20 cm
Volume of the wall = 900 x 600 x 20 cm3 = 10800000 cm3
Volume of one Brick = 30 x 15 x 10 cm3 = 4500 cm3
Number of bricks required to construct the wall = Volume of wall/Volume of one brick
= 10800000/4500
= 2400
Question 10.
A solid cube of edge 14 cm is melted down and recanted into smaller and equal cubes each of edge 2 cm; find the number of smaller cubes obtained.
Answer
Edge of the big solid cube = 14 cm
Volume of the big solid cube = 14 x 14 x 14 cm3 = 2744 cm3
Edge of the small cube = 2 cm
Volume of one small cube = 2 x 2 x 2 cm3 = 8 cm3
Number of smaller cubes obtained = Volume of big cube/Volume of one small cube
= 2744/8
=343

Answer
Length of closed box (l) = 40 cm
Breadth (b) = 30 cm
and height (h) = 50 cm
Total surface area = 2 (lb + bh + hl)
= 2 (40 x 30 + 30 x 50 + 50 x 40) cm2
= 2 (1200 + 1500 + 2000) cm2
= 2 x 4700 = 9400 cm2
Surface area of sheet used for 20 such boxes = 9400 x 20 = 188000 cm2
Cost of 1 m2 sheet = Rs. 45
Total cost = (18000×45)/(100×100×100)
= Rs.846

= 2[5 + 4.5] × 3.6
= 2(9.5) × 3.6
= 19 × 3.6
= 68.4 m2
Area of one door = 1.5×2.4m2
= 3.60 m2
= 3.6 m2
Area of one window = 1×0.75m2
= 0.75 m2
Area of 2 window = 0.75×2m2
= 1.5 m2
(i) Area of four walls excluding door and windows = 68.4 – (3.6 + 1.5)

Answer
Length of the dining hall of a hotel = 75 m
The breadth of the dining hall of a hotel = 60 m
Height of the dining hall of a hotel = 16 m
(i) Area of four walls of the dining hall = 2[L+B) x H = 2(75 + 60) x 16
= 2(135)×16
= 270×16
= 4320 m2
Area of one door = 4×3 m2
= 12 m2
Area of 5 doors = 12×5=60 m2
Area of one window = 3×1.6=4.8m2
Area of 4 window = 4.8×4=19.2m2
Area of the walls to be papered
= 4320 – (60 + 19.2)
= 4320 – 79.2
= 4240.8 m2
Cost of papering the walls @ Rs.12 per m2
= 4240.8×12
= Rs. 50889.60

External Height of the closed box = 60 cm
External volume of the closed box = 80 x 75 x 60 = 360000 cm3
Internal length of the closed box = 80 – 4 = 76 cm
Internal Breadth of the closed box = 75 – 4 = 71 cm
Internal Height of the closed box = 60 – 4=56 cm
Internal volume of the closed box = 76 x 71 x 56 cm = 302176 cm3
Volume of wood required to make the closed box = 360000 – 302176 = 57824 cm3
Question 7.
A closed box measures 66 cm, 36 cm and 21 cm from outside. If its walls are made of metal-sheet, 0.5 cm thick ; find :
(i) the capacity of the box ;
(ii) volume of metal-sheet and
(iii) weight of the box, if 1 cm3 of metal weights 3.6 gm.
Answer
External length of the closed box = 66cm.
External breadth of the closed box = 36 cm
External height of the closed box =21 cm
External volume of the closed box= 66 x 36 x 21 = 49896 cm3
Internal length of the box =(66 – 2 x 0.5) = 66 – 1 = 65 cm
Internal breadth of the box =(36 – 2 x 0.5) = 36 – 1 = 35 cm
Internal height of the box = (21 – 2 x 0.5) = 21 – 1 = 20 cm
Internal Volume of the box = 65 x 35 x 20 = 45500 cm3
(i) Capacity of the box = 45500 cm3
(ii) Volume of metal sheet of the box = External volume – Internal volume
= 49896 – 45500 = 4396 cm3
(iii) 1 cm3 of metal weigh 3.6 grams.
Weight of the box = 4396 x 3.6 gm = 15825.6 gm
Question 8.

(i) the capacity of the box
(ii) the volume of wood used to make the box.
Answer
Internal length of the closed box = 1m
= 100 cm
breadth = 80 cm
height = 25 cm
volume = 100×80×25
= 200000 cm3
External length of the box = (100+2×2.5)
= 100 + 5 = 105 cm
External breadth = (80+2×2.5)
= 80 + 5 = 85 cm
External height = (25+2×2.5)
= (25 + 5) = 30 cm
External volume = 105×85×30 cm3
= 267750 cm3
(i) The capacity of the box = 100×80×25 cm3
= 200000 cm3
= (200000)/100×100×100 m3
= 0.2 m3
(ii) The volume of wood used to make the box
= External volume – Internal volume
= 267750 – 200000
= 67750 cm3
= (67750)/100×100×100m3
= 0.06775 m3
Question 9.

Answer
Length of the tank = 10 m
Breadth of the tank = 7.5 m
Depth of the tank = 3.8 m
Area of four walls = 2[L+B] x H = 2(10 + 7.5) x 3.8
= 2 x 17.5 x 3.8 = 35 x 3.8 = 133 m2
Area of the floor = L x B = 10 x 7.5 = 75 m
Area of metal sheet required to make the tank =Area of four walls + Area of floor = 133 m2 + 75 m2 = 208 m2

Length of the tank = 30 m
Width of the tank = 24 m
Depth of the tank = 4.5 m
Area of four walls of the tank = 2[L+B] x H = 2(30 + 24) x 4.5 = 2 x 54 x 4.5 m2 = 486 m2
Area of the floor of the tank = L x B = 30 x 24 = 720 m2
Area of Iron sheet required to make the tank = Area of four walls + Area of floor = 486 + 720 = 1206 m2
Cost of iron sheet required @ ₹ 65 per m2 = 1206 x 65 = ₹ 78390

The capacity of a rectangular tank is 5.2 m3 and the area of its base is 2.6 x 104 cm2; find its height (depth).
Answer
Capacity of a tank = 5.2 m3
and area of its base = 2.6 x 104 cm2
= (2.6×10000)/(100×100) =2.6m2
⇒ lb = 2.6 m2
and l bh = 5.2 m3
∴ Height (h) = 5.2/2.6 = 2m
Question 6.
The height of a rectangular solid is 5 times its width and its length is 8 times its height. If the volume of the wall is 102.4 cm3, find its length.
Answer
Height of rectangular solid = 5 x width
and length = 8 x height = 8 x 5 x width = 40 x width
Volume = 102.4 cm3
Let width = w
Then height = 40w
and height = 5w
∴ w × 40w × 5w = 102.4
w³= (102.4)/40×5= 0.512
= (0.8)3
∴ w = 0.8
∴ Length = 40w = 40×0.8 = 32 cm

= 6 x 9x2 = 54x2
and of surface area of second cube = 6 x (2x)2
= 6 x 4x2 = 24x2
Ratio = 54x2: 24x2 = 9:4
(ii) Volume of first cube = (3x)3
= 27x3
and second cube = (2x)3 = 8x3
Ratio = 27x3: 8x3
= 27 :8
Question 8.

(i) If its surface are is 2548 cm2, find its volume.
(ii) If its volume is 3000 m3, find its surface area.
Answer
Surface area of cuboid = 2548 cm2
Ratio in length, breadth and height of a cuboid = 4 : 3 : 2
Let length = 4x, Breadth = 3x and height = 2x
∴Surface area=2(4x×3x+3x×2x+2x×4x)
= 2(12x²+6x²+8x²)
= 2×26x²=52×2
∴ 52x²=2548
x²= 2548/52 =49=(7)²
∴x=7
∴Length=4x=4×7=28 cm
∴Breadth=3x=3×7=21 cm
and height=2x=2×7=14cm
∴Volume=lbh
=28×21×14 cm3 = 8232 cm2
(ii) If volume = 3000 m3
⇒ 4x×3x×2x=3000
⇒ 24x³=3000
⇒ x³ = 3000/24 = 125 = (5)³
∴x=5m
Length=5×4=20,breadth=5×3=15m
and height = 5×2=10m
∴Surface area=2 [ lb + bh + hl ]
= 2[20×15+15×10+10×20]m2
= 2[300+150+200]m2
= 2×650=1300m2

= (22/7)×7×7×20 cm3 = 3080 cm3
(ii) Total surface area = 2πr(h + r)
= 2×(22/7)×7(20+7) cm2 = 44 x 27 = 1188 cm2
Question 2.
Find the curved surface area and the total surface area of a right circular cylinder whose height is 15 cm and the diameter of the cross-section is 14 cm.
Answer
Diameter of the base of cylinder = 14 cm
Radius (r) = 14/2 cm = 7 cm
Height (h) = 15 cm
Curved surface area = 2πrh
= 2×(22/7)×7×15
= 660 cm2
Total surface area
= 2πr (h + r)
= 2×(22/7)×7(15+7)
= 2×(22/7)×7×22
= 968 cm2
Question 3.
Find the height of the cylinder whose radius is 7 cm and the total surface area is 1100 cm2.
Answer
Total surface area =1100 cm2
Radius = 7 cm
Let height of the cylinder = h
Then, total surface area = 2πr(h + r)
⇒ 2×(22/7)×7(h+7)=1100
⇒ 44(h+7)=1100
⇒ 44h+308=1100
⇒ 44h=1100-308
h = 792/44=18 cm
Question 4.
The curved surface area of a cylinder of height 14 cm is 88 cm2. Find the diameter of the base of the cylinder.
Answer
Height (h) = 14 cm
Curved surface area (2πrh) = 88 cm2
Then, 2πrh = 88 cm2
⇒ 2×(22/7)×r×14=88cm2
⇒ 88r = 88
⇒ r = 88/88=1 cm
Then diameter = 1×2=2 cm
Question 5.
The ratio between the curved surface area and the total surface area of a cylinder is 1 : 2. Find the ratio between the height and the radius of the cylinder.
Answer
r be the radius and h be the height of a right circular cylinder, then Curved surface area = 2πrh
and total surface area = 2πrh x 2πr2 = 2πr(h + r)
But their ratio is 1: 2
2h = h + r ⇒ 2h – h = r
h = r = 1 : 1
Hence their radius and height are equal
Question 6.
Find the capacity of a cylindrical container with internal diameter 28 cm and height 20 cm.
Answer
Diameter = 28 cm
Radius = 28/2 cm = 14 cm
Height = 20 cm

Volume = 12320 cm3
Question 7.
The total surface area of a cylinder is 6512 cm2 and the circumference of its bases is 88 cm. Find:
(i) its radius
(ii) its volume
Answer
Let r be the radius and h be the height of the given cylinder.
Circumference = 2πr = 88 cm (Given)
⇒ 2×(22/7)×r=88cm
⇒ r=88×(7/22)×(1/2)
⇒ r = 14 cm
Total surface area = 2πr(h+r)
=6512 cm2 (Given)
⇒ 88(h+14)=6512
(∵ 2πr=88 cm and r = 14 cm)
⇒ h+14=6512/88
⇒ h + 14 = 74 ⇒ h = 60 cm
∴ Volume of the cylinder = πr²h
= (22/7)×(14)²×60 cm3 = 36960 cm3
Question 8.
The sum of the radius and the height of a cylinder is 37 cm and the total surface area of the cylinder is 1628 cm2. Find the height and the volume of the cylinder.
Answer
Let r and h be the radius and height of the solid cylinder respectively.
Given, r + h = 37 cm
The total surface area of the cylinder = 1628 cm2 (Given)
∴ 2πr(r+h)=1628cm2
⇒ 2πr×37=1628 cm2
⇒ 2×(22/7)×r×37=1628cm2
⇒ r=(1628×7)/(2×22×37)=7 cm
rth = 37 cm ⇒ 7 + h = 37 cm ⇒ h = 30 cm
The volume of the cylinder = πr²h
= (22/7)×7×7×30=4620 cm3
Question 9.

Question 1.
A cuboid is 8 m long, 12 m broad and 3.5 high, Find its
(i) total surface area
(ii) lateral surface area
Answer
Length of a cuboid = 8 m
The breadth of a cuboid = 12 m
Height of a cuboid = 3.5 m
(i) Total surface area = 2(lb + bh + hl)
= 2(8 x 12 + 12 x 3.5 + 3.5 x 8)
= 2(96 + 42 + 28)
= 2 x 166 = 332 m2
(ii) Lateral surface area = 2h(l + b)
= 2 x 3.5(8 + 12) = 7 x 20= 140 m2
Question 2.
How many bricks will be required for constructing a wall which is 16 m long, 3 m high and 22.5 cm thick, if each brick measures 25 cm x 11.25 cm x 6 cm?
Answer
Length of the wall = 16 m = 16 x 100 cm = 1600 cm
Height of the wall = 3 m = 3 x 100 cm = 300 cm
Breadth of the wall = 22.5 cm
Volume of the wall = 1600 x 300 x 22.5 cm3 = 1,08,00,000 cm3
Volume of one brick = 25 x 11.25 x 6 cm3 = 1687.5 cm3
Number of bricks required to construct the wall = (Volume of wall/Volume of one brick)
= (1,08,00,000/1687.5)=6400
Question 3
The length, breadth and height of cuboid are in the ratio 6 : 5 : 3. If its total surface area is 504 cm2, find its volume.
Answer
Let the length of the given cuboid = 6x
The breadth of the given cuboid = 5x
Height of the given cuboid = 3x
The total surface area of the given cuboid
= 2(lb + bh + hl)
= 2(6x×5x+5x×3x+3x×6x)
= (30x²+15x²+18x²)
= 2×63x²=126x²
But, we are given total surface area
= 504 cm2
∴ 126x2 = 504
⇒ x²=504126
⇒ x²=4
⇒ x²=(2)²
⇒ x = 2 cm
∴ Length of the given cuboid = 6x
= 6×2cm
=12 cm
Breadth of the given cuboid = 5x
= 5×2 cm = 10 cm
Height of the given cuboid = 3x
= 3×2 cm = 6 cm
Now, volume of the cuboid
= l×b×h
= 12×10×6
=720 cm3
Question 4.
The external dimensions of an open wooden box are 65 cm, 34 cm and 25 cm. If the box is made up of wood 2 cm thick, find the capacity of the box and the volume of wood used to make it.
Answer
External length of the open box = 65 cm
External breadth of the open box = 34 cm
External height of the open box = 25 cm
External volume of the open box = 65 x 34 x 25 cm3 = 55250 cm3
Internal length of open box = 65 – (2 x 2) cm = 61 cm
Internal breadth of a open box = 34 – (2 x 2) cm = 30 cm
Internal height of open box = 25 – 2 cm = 23 cm
Internal volume of open box or capacity of the box = 61 x 30 x 23 cm3 = 42090 cm3
Volume of wood required to make the closed box = 55250 – 42090 cm3 = 13160 cm3
Question 5.
The curved surface area and the volume of a toy, cylindrical in shape, are 132 cm2 and 462 cm3 respectively. Find, its diameter and its length.
Answer
et the radius of a toy = r and
height of the toy = h
The curved surface area of a toy = 132 cm2
=> 2πrh = 132 cm2
⇒ 2πrh = 132 cm2
Now, put the value of h in eq. (i), we get
∴ Diameter of the toy = 2×r
= 2×7 cm = 14 cm
Question 6.
The floor of a rectangular hall has a perimeter 250 m. If the cost of painting the four walls at the rate of ₹ 10 per m2 is ₹ 15,000, find the height of the hall.
Answer
Let the length, breadth, and height of the rectangular hall be l m, b m, and h m respectively.
he perimeter of the floor of hall = 2(l + b)
250 m = 2(l + b)
(l + b) = 250/2=125 cm …(i)
Area of four walls = Area of cuboid – Area of floor – Area of top
= 2 (lb + bh + hl) – (l x b) – (l x b)
= 2(lb) + 2 (bh) + 2(hl) – 2lb = 2 lh + 2 bh
= 2h(l + b)
= 2h x 125 [From (i)]
= 250h m2
Area of four walls = 250h m2
Cost of painting 1 m2 area = ₹ 10
Cost of painting 250h m2 area = ₹ 10 x 250h = 2500h
15000 = 2500h
h = 15000/2500
The height of the hall is 6 m.
Question 7.
The length of a hall is double its breadth. Its height is 3 m. The area of its four walls (including doors and windows) is 108 m2, find its volume.
Answer
Let the breadth be x
and the length be 2x
Height = 3 m
Area of four walls = 108 m2
⇒ 2(l + b)h = 108
⇒ 2(2x + x)3 = 108
⇒ 6×3x=108
⇒ 3x = 108/6
⇒ x= 18/3 = 6m
∴ Breadth = x = 6 m
and length = 2x = 12 m
Hence, Volume = l×b×h
= 12×6×3
= 216 m3
Question 8.
A solid cube of side 12 cm is cut into 8 identical cubes. What will be the side of the new cube? Also, find the ratio between the surface area of the original cube and the total surface area of all the small cubes formed.
Answer
Here, the cube of side 12 cm is divided into 8 cubes of side 9 cm.
Given that,
Their volumes are equal.
The volume of big cube of 12 cm = Volume of 8 cubes of side a cm
(Side of the big cube)3 = 8 x (Side of the small cube)3
(12)3 = 8 x a3
⇒ a3=12×12×128
⇒ a3=63 cm3
⇒ a = 6 cm
So, the ratio is 1:2
Question 9.

Answer
Diameter of the roller = 1.4 m
Radius (r) = 1.4/2
= 0.7 m
and length (h) = 2m
Curved surface area = 2πrh
= 2 x (22/7) x 0.7 x 2 cm2 = 8.8 m2
Area covered in 50 complete revolutions = 8.8 x 50 m2 = 440 m2
Area of the playground = 440 m2
