Basics
Cuboid and Its Surface Area
The surface area of a cuboid is equal to the sum of the areas of its six rectangular faces. Consider a
cuboid whose dimensions are l × b × h respectively.
Total surface area of cuboid(TSA) = Sum of the areas of all its six faces TSA
(cuboid) = 2(l × b) + 2(b × h) + 2(l × h) = 2(lb + bh + lh)
Lateral surface area (LSA) is the area of all the sides apart from the top and bottom faces. The lateral
surface area of the cuboid = Area of face AEHD + Area of face BFGC + Area of face ABFE + Area
of face DHGC
LSA (cuboid) = 2(b × h) + 2(l × h) = 2h(l + b)
Take a cylinder of base radius r and height h units. The curved surface of this cylinder, if opened along
the diameter (d = 2r) of the circular base can be transformed into a rectangle of length 2πr and height
h units. Thus,
Transformation of a Cylinder into a rectangle.
Consider a right circular cone with slant length l, radius r and height h.
CSA of right circular cone = πrl
TSA = CSA + area of base = πrl + πr 2 = πr(l + r)
Volume of a Cube
Volume of a cube = base area×height
Since all dimensions of a cube are identical, volume = l3
Where l is the length of the edge of the cube.
Volume of a Cylinder
Where r is the radius of the cone and h is the height of the cone.

Areas of complex figures can be broken down and analysed as simpler known shapes. By finding the
areas of these known shapes we can find out the required area of the unknown figure.
Example: 2 cubes each of volume 64 cm3 are joined end to end. Find the surface area of the resulting
cuboid.
Since these cubes are joined adjacently, they form a cuboid whose length l = 8cm. But height and
breadth will remain the same = 4cm.
The volume of complex objects can be simplified by visualising them as a combination of shapes of
known solids.
Example: A solid is in the shape of a cone standing on a hemisphere with both their radii being
equal to 1 cm and the height of the cone is equal to its radius. The above figure can be visualised as
follows :
⇒ V (solid) = 33π cm 3
Shape Conversion of Solids
Frustum of a Cone
If a right circular cone is sliced by a plane parallel to its base then the part with the two circular
bases is called a Frustum.
Frustum of a cone
Surface Area of a Frustum
Volume of a Frustum
Volume of frustum of a cone = ⅓ πh(r21 + r22 + r1r2)
When a solid is converted into another solid of a different shape(by melting or casting), the volume remains
constant.
Suppose a metallic sphere of radius 9 cm is melted and recast into the shape of a cylinder of radius 6
cm. Since the volume remains the same after a recast, therefore the volume of the cylinder will be equal to the
volume of the sphere.
The radius of the cylinder is known however the height is not known. Let h be the height of the cylinder.
r1 and r2 be the radius of the sphere and cylinder respectively. Then,
V(sphere) = V(cylinder)
⇒ h = 27cm

Answer: (B) It is the quantity that expresses the extent of a planar 2-D surface
Examples of 2-D surfaces are rectangles, circles, ellipse etc. It is possible to find

spheres etc. are not defined. But intuitively we know that there is some area
associated with such 3-D objects. How come? The answer is coming soon!

7. There are 2 identical cubes each having a total surface area equal to ‘A’. Let ‘S’ be the
surface area of the solid obtained by joining these 2 cubes end to end. Which of the
following statements is true?
The total surface area of combined solid can be obtained by adding surface areas of
individual cubes and then subtracting the surface areas of one face of each cube which
have become hidden due to joining. The combined solid will be a cuboid whose height
and breadth will be same as cube’s side. The length of cuboid will be summation of
lengths sides of each cube.
8. The figure consists of 2 cylinders, the inner cylinder is a solid cylinder whose radius is
r and the outer cylinder is a hollow cylinder whose radius is R and height is h, the
volume of fluid it can hold is:
(A) πr2h
(B) πR2h
(C) π(R2−r2)h
(D) π(R2+r2)h
Solution: The inner cylinder is solid whereas the outer is hollow. If the inner cylinder
was not there, then the volume of fluid the outer cylinder can hold would be πR2h but
since the inner cylinder is solid and is occupying some space, it is limiting the volume of
the outer cylinder.
So, the volume of fluid the given shape can hold is the difference in volume of the outer
and inner cylinders.
Volume = π (R2−r2) h
+ volume of frustum
= 8527.2
10. A piece of cloth is required to completely cover a solid object. The solid object is
composed of a hemisphere and a cone surmounted on it. If the common radius is 7
m and height of the cone is 1 m, what is the area of cloth required?
(A) 262.39m2
(B) 463.39m2
(C) 662.39m2
(D) 563m2
For calculating the surface area of a cone we need to calculate its slant height,
So, area of cloth required = (308 + 155.39) m2 = 463.39 m2
11. An oil funnel made of tin sheet consists of a 10 cm long cylindrical portion attached
to a frustum of a cone. If the total height is 22 cm, the diameter of the cylindrical
portion is 8 cm and diameter of the top of the funnel is 18 cm, find the area of the
tin sheet required to make the funnel.

12.Ram has a semicircular disc. He rotates it about its diameter by 360 degrees. When
he rotates the disc, a volume of air in his room gets swept. What is the name of the
object/shape that exactly occupies this volume?
(A) Cylinder
(B) Hemisphere
(C) Sphere
(D) Cuboid
Solution:
It is clear that by seeing 2nd diagram we can know how semicircle sweeps and
what is the shape obtained. The shape obtained is a sphere. If rotation had been
done for only 180 degrees instead of 360 degrees, we get a hemisphere. The line
segment AB which acted as axis of rotation will also be diameter of sphere formed.

of the top and the bottom are 56 cm and 42 cm respectively. How many liters of water
can the bucket hold?
(A) 28.49
(B) 7.5
(C) 2.5
(D) 10
Solution:
R = 28 cm
r = 21 cm
h = 15 cm
= 28.49 liters

to form a platform of 22 m by 14 m. Find the height of the platform (in m).
(A) 7.5
(B) 2.5
(C) 10
(D) 5

completely filled. (Take π = 3.14)
(A) 0.76 m
(B) 0.69 m
(C) 0.59 m
(D) 0.45 m
16. A cylinder is moulded into the shape of a sphere. Which of the following
factors will be same for both the shapes?
Solution: Volume is a factor which does not differ with change of shape. A cylinder
can be moulded into a sphere or a cube or a cuboid of varying dimensions keeping
the volume constant.

needed?
(A) 256500
(B) 526500
(C) 625500
(D) 562500
Solution: Speed of water flowing through canal =10 km/h =10, 000 m/h

Here, it is necessary to realise that the total surface area of an object is the total area
of surface of an object that is visible to human eye. In case of a hollow cube, the
internal surface is hidden and is completely invisible to us.
This means that for hollow cubes, surface area is just simply the external surface area.
This is nothing but the sum of the areas of each face of cube (which is nothing but the
total surface area of the cube).
We know that if ‘a’ is the edge of cube, area of one face is a .
