MENSURATION 103 CHAPTER Mensuration 9 9.1 Introduction We have learnt that for a closed plane figure, the perimeter is the distance around its boundary and its area is the region covered by it. We found the area and perimeter of various plane figures such as triangles, rectangles, circles etc. We have also learnt to find the area of pathways or borders in rectangular shapes. In this chapter, we will try to solve problems related to perimeter and area of other plane closed figures like quadrilaterals. We will also learn about surface area and volume of solids such as cube, cuboid and cylinder. 9.2 Area of a Polygon We split a quadrilateral into triangles and find its area. Similar methods can be used to find the area of a polygon. Observe the following for a pentagon: (Fig 9.1, 9.2) Fig 9.2 Fig 9.1 By constructing one diagonal AD and two By constructing two diagonals AC and AD the perpendiculars BF and CG on it, pentagon ABCDE is pentagon ABCDE is divided into three parts. divided into four parts. So, area of ABCDE = area of So, area ABCDE = area of ∆ ABC + area of right angled ∆ AFB + area of trapezium BFGC + area ∆ ACD + area of ∆ AED. of right angled ∆ CGD + area of ∆ AED.

Find its area if AD = 8 cm, AH = 6 cm, AG = 4 cm, AF = 3 cm and perpendiculars BF = 2 cm, CH = 3 cm, EG = 2.5 cm.

(iii) Find the area of polygon MNOPQR (Fig 9.5) if MP = 9 cm, MD = 7 cm, MC = 6 cm, MB = 4 cm, MA = 2 cm NA, OC, QD and RB are perpendiculars to diagonal MP. Fig 9.5 Example 1: The area of a trapezium shaped field is 480 m2, the distance between two parallel sides is 15 m and one of the parallel side is 20 m. Find the other parallel side. Solution: One of the parallel sides of the trapezium is a = 20 m, let another parallel side be b, height h = 15 m. The given area of trapezium = 480 m2. 1 Area of a trapezium = h (a + b) 2 1 480 × 2 So 480 = × 15 × (20 + b) or = 20 + b 2 15 or 64 = 20 + b or b = 44 m Hence the other parallel side of the trapezium is 44 m.

Solution: Let length of one diagonal d1 = 16 cm and length of the other diagonal = d 2 1 Area of the rhombus = d1. d2 = 240 2 1 So, 16 ⋅ d 2 = 240 2 Therefore, d2 = 30 cm Hence the length of the second diagonal is 30 cm. Example 3: There is a hexagon MNOPQR of side 5 cm (Fig 9.6). Aman and Ridhima divided it in two different ways (Fig 9.7). Find the area of this hexagon using both ways. Fig 9.6 Ridhima’s method Aman’s method Fig 9.7 Solution: Aman’s method: Since it is a hexagon so NQ divides the hexagon into two congruent trapeziums. You can verify it by paper folding (Fig 9.8). (11 + 5) Now area of trapezium MNQR = 4 × = 2 × 16 = 32 cm2. 2 So the area of hexagon MNOPQR = 2 × 32 = 64 cm2. Ridhima’s method: Fig 9.8 ∆ MNO and ∆ RPQ are congruent triangles with altitude 3 cm (Fig 9.9). You can verify this by cutting off these two triangles and placing them on one another. Fig 9.9 1 Area of ∆ MNO = × 8 × 3 = 12 cm2 = Area of ∆ RPQ 2 Area of rectangle MOPR = 8 × 5 = 40 cm2. Now, area of hexagon MNOPQR = 40 + 12 + 12 = 64 cm2. EXERCISE 9.1 1.

Find the area of each section of the frame, if the width of each section is same. 9.3 Solid Shapes In your earlier classes you have studied that two dimensional figures can be identified as the faces of three dimensional shapes. Observe the solids which we have discussed so far (Fig 9.10). Reprint 2024-25  MENSURATION 107 Fig 9.10 Observe that some shapes have two or more than two identical (congruent) faces. Name them. Which solid has all congruent faces? DO THIS Soaps, toys, pastes, snacks etc. often come in the packing of cuboidal, cubical or cylindrical boxes. Collect, such boxes (Fig 9.11). Fig 9.11 Cuboidal Box Cubical Box All six faces are rectangular, and opposites faces are identical. So there are three pairs of identical faces. All six faces are squares Cylindrical Box and identical. One curved surface and two circular faces which are identical. Now take one type of box at a time. Cut out all the faces it has. Observe the shape of each face and find the number of faces of the box that are identical by placing them on each other. Write down your observations. Reprint 2024-25 108 MATHEMATICS Did you notice the following: The cylinder has congruent circular faces that are parallel to each other (Fig 9.12). Observe that the line segment joining the center of circular faces is perpendicular to the base. Such cylinders are known as right circular cylinders. We are only going to study this type of cylinders, though there are other Fig 9.12 Fig 9.13 types of cylinders as well (Fig 9.13). (This is a right (This is not a right circular cylinder) circular cylinder) THINK, DISCUSS AND WRITE Why is it incorrect to call the solid shown here a cylinder? 9.4 Surface Area of Cube, Cuboid and Cylinder Imran, Monica and Jaspal are painting a cuboidal, cubical and a cylindrical box respectively of same height (Fig 9.4). Fig 9.4 They try to determine who has painted more area. Hari suggested that finding the surface area of each box would help them find it out. To find the total surface area, find the area of each face and then add. The surface area of a solid is the sum of the areas of its faces. To clarify further, we take each shape one by one. 9.4.1 Cuboid Suppose you cut open a cuboidal box and lay it flat (Fig 9.15). We can see a net as shown below (Fig 9.16). Write the dimension of each side. You know that a cuboid has three pairs of identical faces. What expression can you use to find the area of each face? Fig 9.15 Fig 9.16 Find the total area of all the faces of the box. We see that the total surface area of a cuboid is area I + area II + area III + area IV +area V + area VI =h×l+b×l+b×h+l×h+b×h+l×b Reprint 2024-25  MENSURATION 109 So total surface area = 2 (h × l + b × h + b × l) = 2(lb + bh + hl ) where h, l and b are the height, length and width of the cuboid respectively. Suppose the height, length and width of the box shown above are 20 cm, 15 cm and 10 cm respectively. Then the total surface area = 2 (20 × 15 + 20 × 10 + 10 × 15) = 2 ( 300 + 200 + 150) = 1300 m2. TRY THESE Find the total surface area of the following cuboids (Fig 9.17): Fig 9.17 The side walls (the faces excluding the top and bottom) make the lateral surface area of the cuboid. For example, the total area of all the four walls of the cuboidal room in which you are sitting is the lateral surface area of this room (Fig 9.18). Hence, the lateral surface area of a cuboid is given by 2(h × l + b × h) or 2h (l + b). Fig 9.18 DO THIS (i) Cover the lateral surface of a cuboidal duster (which your teacher uses in the class room) using a strip of brown sheet of paper, such that it just fits around the surface.

(c) the total area of the room which is to be white washed. THINK, DISCUSS AND WRITE 1. Can we say that the total surface area of cuboid = lateral surface area + 2 × area of base? 2. If we interchange the lengths of the base and the height of a cuboid (Fig 9.19(i)) to get another cuboid (Fig 9.19(ii)), will its lateral surface area change?

Fold it along the lines [Fig 9.20(ii)] and tape the edges to form a cube [Fig 9.20(iii)]. (i) (ii) (iii) Fig 9.20 (i) (ii) Fig 9.21 (a) What is the length, width and height of the cube? Observe that all the faces of a cube are square in shape. This makes length, height and width of a cube equal (Fig 9.21(i)). (b) Write the area of each of the faces. Are they equal? (c) Write the total surface area of this cube. (d) If each side of the cube is l, what will be the area of each face? (Fig 9.21(ii)). Can we say that the total surface area of a cube of side l is 6l2 ? TRY THESE Find the surface area of cube A and lateral surface area of cube B (Fig 9.22). Fig 9.22 Reprint 2024-25  MENSURATION 111 THINK, DISCUSS AND WRITE (i) Two cubes each with side b are joined to form a cuboid (Fig 9.23). What is the surface area of this cuboid? Is it 12b2? Is the surface area of cuboid formed by joining three such cubes, 18b2? Why? Fig 9.23 (ii) How will you arrange 12 cubes of equal length to form a cuboid of smallest surface area? (iii) After the surface area of a cube is painted, the cube is cut into 64 smaller cubes of same dimensions (Fig 9.24). How many have no face painted? 1 face painted? 2 faces painted? 3 faces painted? Fig 9.24 9.4.3 Cylinders Most of the cylinders we observe are right circular cylinders. For example, a tin, round pillars, tube lights, water pipes etc. DO THIS (i) Take a cylindrical can or box and trace the base of the can on graph paper and cut it [Fig 9.25(i)]. Take another graph paper in such a way that its width is equal to the height of the can. Wrap the strip around the can such that it just fits around the can (remove the excess paper) [Fig 9.25(ii)]. Tape the pieces [Fig 9.25(iii)] together to form a cylinder [Fig 9.25(iv)]. What is the shape of the paper that goes around the can? (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) Fig 9.25 Reprint 2024-25 112 MATHEMATICS Of course it is rectangular in shape. When you tape the parts of this cylinder together, the length of the rectangular strip is equal to the circumference of the circle. Record the radius (r) of the circular base, length (l ) and width (h) of the rectangular strip. Is 2πr = length of the strip. Check if the area of rectangular strip is 2πrh. Count how many square units of the squared paper are used to form the cylinder. Check if this count is approximately equal to 2πr (r + h). (ii) We can deduce the relation 2πr (r + h) as the surface area of a cylinder in another way. Imagine cutting up a cylinder as shown below (Fig 9.26). Fig 9.26 22 The lateral (or curved) surface area of a cylinder is 2πrh. Note: We take π to be 7 unless otherwise stated. The total surface area of a cylinder = πr2 + 2πrh + πr2 = 2πr2 + 2πrh or 2πr (r + h) TRY THESE Find total surface area of the following cylinders (Fig 9.27) Fig 9.27 THINK, DISCUSS AND WRITE Note that lateral surface area of a cylinder is the circumference of base × height of cylinder. Can we write lateral surface area of a cuboid as perimeter of base × height of cuboid? Example 4: An aquarium is in the form of a cuboid whose external measures are 80 cm × 30 cm × 40 cm. The base, side faces and back face are to be covered with a coloured paper. Find the area of the paper needed? Solution: The length of the aquarium = l = 80 cm Width of the aquarium = b = 30 cm Reprint 2024-25  MENSURATION 113 Height of the aquarium = h = 40 cm Area of the base = l × b = 80 × 30 = 2400 cm2 Area of the side face = b × h = 30 × 40 = 1200 cm2 Area of the back face = l × h = 80 × 40 = 3200 cm2 Required area = Area of the base + area of the back face + (2 × area of a side face) = 2400 + 3200 + (2 × 1200) = 8000 cm2 Hence the area of the coloured paper required is 8000 cm2. Example 5: The internal measures of a cuboidal room are 12 m × 8 m × 4 m. Find the total cost of whitewashing all four walls of a room, if the cost of white washing is ` 5 per m2. What will be the cost of white washing if the ceiling of the room is also whitewashed. Solution: Let the length of the room = l = 12 m Width of the room = b = 8 m Height of the room = h = 4 m Area of the four walls of the room = Perimeter of the base × Height of the room = 2 (l + b) × h = 2 (12 + 8) × 4 = 2 × 20 × 4 = 160 m2. Cost of white washing per m2 = ` 5 Hence the total cost of white washing four walls of the room = ` (160 × 5) = ` 800 Area of ceiling is 12 × 8 = 96 m2 Cost of white washing the ceiling = ` (96 × 5) = ` 480 So the total cost of white washing = ` (800 + 480) = ` 1280 Example 6: In a building there are 24 cylindrical pillars. The radius of each pillar is 28 cm and height is 4 m. Find the total cost of painting the curved surface area of all pillars at the rate of ` 8 per m2. Solution: Radius of cylindrical pillar, r = 28 cm = 0.28 m height, h = 4 m curved surface area of a cylinder = 2πrh 22 curved surface area of a pillar = 2 × × 0.28 × 4 = 7.04 m2 7 curved surface area of 24 such pillar = 7.04 × 24 = 168.96 m2 cost of painting an area of 1 m2 = ` 8 Therefore, cost of painting 1689.6 m2 = 168.96 × 8 = ` 1351.68 Example 7: Find the height of a cylinder whose radius is 7 cm and the total surface area is 968 cm2. Solution: Let height of the cylinder = h, radius = r = 7cm Total surface area = 2πr (h + r) Reprint 2024-25 114 MATHEMATICS 22 i.e., 2× × 7 × (7 + h) = 968 7 h = 15 cm Hence, the height of the cylinder is 15 cm.

Reprint 2024-25  MENSURATION 115 9.5 Volume of Cube, Cuboid and Cylinder Amount of space occupied by a three dimensional object is called its volume. Try to compare the volume of objects surrounding you. For example, volume of a room is greater than the volume of an almirah kept inside it. Similarly, volume of your pencil box is greater than the volume of the pen and the eraser kept inside it. Can you measure volume of either of these objects? Remember, we use square units to find the area of a region. Here we will use cubic units to find the volume of a solid, as cube is the most convenient solid shape (just as square is the most convenient shape to measure area of a region). For finding the area we divide the region into square units, similarly, to find the volume of a solid we need to divide it into cubical units. Observe that the volume of each of the adjoining solids is 8 cubic units (Fig 9.28 ). Fig 9.28 We can say that the volume of a solid is measured by counting the number of unit cubes it contains. Cubic units which we generally use to measure volume are 1 cubic cm = 1 cm × 1 cm × 1 cm = 1 cm3 = 10 mm × 10 mm × 10 mm =............... mm3 1 cubic m = 1 m × 1 m × 1 m = 1 m3 =............................... cm3 1 cubic mm = 1 mm × 1 mm × 1 mm = 1 mm3 = 0.1 cm × 0.1 cm × 0.1 cm =...................... cm3 We now find some expressions to find volume of a cuboid, cube and cylinder. Let us take each solid one by one. 9.5.1 Cuboid Take 36 cubes of equal size (i.e., length of each cube is same). Arrange them to form a cuboid. You can arrange them in many ways. Observe the following table and fill in the blanks. cuboid length breadth height l×b×h=V (i) 12 3 1 12 × 3 × 1 = 36 (ii)............ Reprint 2024-25 116 MATHEMATICS (iii)............ (iv)............ What do you observe? Since we have used 36 cubes to form these cuboids, volume of each cuboid is 36 cubic units. Also volume of each cuboid is equal to the product of length, breadth and height of the cuboid. From the above example we can say volume of cuboid = l × b × h. Since l × b is the area of its base we can also say that, Volume of cuboid = area of the base × height DO THIS Take a sheet of paper. Measure its area. Pile up such sheets of paper of same size to make a cuboid (Fig 9.29). Measure the height of this pile. Find the volume of the cuboid by finding the product of the area of the sheet and the height of this pile of sheets. Fig 9.29 This activity illustrates the idea that volume of a solid can be deduced by this method also (if the base and top of the solid are congruent and parallel to each other and its edges are perpendicular to the base). Can you think of such objects whose volume can be found by using this method? TRY THESE Find the volume of the following cuboids (Fig 9.30).

Find the surface area of each arrangement. Can solid shapes of same volume have same surface area? THINK, DISCUSS AND WRITE A company sells biscuits. For packing purpose they are using cuboidal boxes: box A →3 cm × 8 cm × 20 cm, box B → 4 cm × 12 cm × 10 cm. What size of the box will be economical for the company? Why? Can you suggest any other size (dimensions) which has the same volume but is more economical than these? 9.5.3 Cylinder We know that volume of a cuboid can be found by finding the product of area of base and its height. Can we find the volume of a cylinder in the same way? Just like cuboid, cylinder has got a top and a base which are congruent and parallel to each other. Its lateral surface is also perpendicular to the base, just like cuboid. So the Volume of a cuboid = area of base × height = l × b × h = lbh Volume of cylinder = area of base × height = πr2 × h = πr2h TRY THESE Find the volume of the following cylinders. (i) (ii) Reprint 2024-25 118 MATHEMATICS 9.6 Volume and Capacity There is not much difference between these two words. (a) Volume refers to the amount of space occupied by an object. (b) Capacity refers to the quantity that a container holds. Note: If a water tin holds 100 cm3 of water then the capacity of the water tin is 100 cm3. Capacity is also measured in terms of litres. The relation between litre and cm3 is, 1 mL = 1 cm3,1 L = 1000 cm3. Thus, 1 m3 = 1000000 cm3 = 1000 L. Example 8: Find the height of a cuboid whose volume is 275 cm3 and base area is 25 cm2. Solution: Volume of a cuboid = Base area × Height Volume of cuboid Hence height of the cuboid = Base area 275 = = 11 cm 25 Height of the cuboid is 11 cm. Example 9: A godown is in the form of a cuboid of measures 60 m × 40 m × 30 m. How many cuboidal boxes can be stored in it if the volume of one box is 0.8 m3 ? Solution: Volume of one box = 0.8 m3 Volume of godown = 60 × 40 × 30 = 72000 m3 Volume of the godown Number of boxes that can be stored in the godown = Volume of one box 60 × 40 × 30 = = 90,000 0.8 Hence the number of cuboidal boxes that can be stored in the godown is 90,000. Example 10: A rectangular paper of width 14 cm is rolled along its width and a cylinder 22 of radius 20 cm is formed. Find the volume of the cylinder (Fig 9.31). (Take for π) 7 Solution: A cylinder is formed by rolling a rectangle about its width. Hence the width of the paper becomes height and radius of the cylinder is 20 cm.

Example 11: A rectangular piece of paper 11 cm × 4 cm is folded without overlapping to make a cylinder of height 4 cm. Find the volume of the cylinder. Solution: Length of the paper becomes the perimeter of the base of the cylinder and width becomes height. Let radius of the cylinder = r and height = h Perimeter of the base of the cylinder = 2πr = 11 22 or 2× × r = 11 7 7 Therefore, r = cm 4 Volume of the cylinder = V = πr2h 22 7 7 = × × × 4 cm3 = 38.5 cm3. 7 4 4 Hence the volume of the cylinder is 38.5 cm3.
