Steps to Solve
- Calculate the Area of the Triangle
The formula for the area of a triangle is given by:
$$ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} $$
For this triangle, the base is 8 cm and the height is 5 cm:
$$ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 8 , \text{cm} \times 5 , \text{cm} $$
Calculating this gives:
$$ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 40 , \text{cm}^2 = 20 , \text{cm}^2 $$
- Calculate the Area of the Rectangular Tablecloth
The area of a rectangle is given by:
$$ \text{Area} = \text{length} \times \text{breadth} $$
For the rectangular tablecloth with length 9 m and breadth 4 m:
$$ \text{Area} = 9 , \text{m} \times 4 , \text{m} $$
Calculating this gives:
$$ \text{Area} = 36 , \text{m}^2 $$
- Determine the Volume of the Cube with Double the Side Length
The volume ( V ) of a cube is given by:
$$ V = \text{side}^3 $$
If the side of the cube doubles, we can denote the new volume as:
$$ V' = (2 \times \text{side})^3 $$
Calculating this gives:
$$ V' = 8 \times \text{side}^3 = 8V $$
This means the volume becomes eight times the original volume.
- Find the Height of the Cuboid
The volume ( V ) of a cuboid is given by:
$$ V = \text{length} \times \text{breadth} \times \text{height} $$
Given the volume ( V = 275 , \text{cm}^3 ) and base area ( 25 , \text{cm}^2 ):
Setting up the equation:
$$ 275 = 25 \times \text{height} $$
Solving for height:
$$ \text{height} = \frac{275}{25} = 11 , \text{cm} $$
- Find the Height of the Cylinder
The volume ( V ) of a cylinder is given by:
$$ V = \pi r^2 h $$
Given the volume is ( 15.4 , \text{m}^3 ) and the diameter of the base is ( 2r ), we need to find ( h ). We first find the radius ( r ):
If the base diameter is ( d ), then:
$$ r = \frac{d}{2} $$
Using the provided volume, we can rearrange the equation to solve for height.

More Information
- The area of a triangle varies with changes in base and height.
- The volume of a cube increases cubically with the length of its sides.
- The cuboid's height can be easily calculated if the volume and base area are known.
Tips
- Misapplying the formula for the area or volume; make sure to use the correct mathematical expressions for triangles, rectangles, cuboids, and cubes.
- Forgetting to convert units, especially when switching between cm and m.
