GIST OF THE TOPIC
MENSURATION:
A branch of Mathematics which talks about the length, area or volume of different
geometric shapes is called Mensuration.
These shapes exist in 2-dimensions (2D) or 3-dimensions (3D).
 A 2D object is an object that has only two dimensions such as length and
breadth, but no thickness.
 A 3D object is an object with three dimensions like length, breadth and

height. The face of a 3D object is the flat side of the object.
In the earlier classes, you have learnt to find the surface area and the volume of
cubes, cuboids and cylinders. We shall study surface areas and volumes of some more
solids such as cones and spheres.

CONE:
A small activity illustrates how a right
triangle when rotated along one of its
perpendicular sides, will result in the
formation of a cone.
Steps for getting a cone:
(i) Cut out a right-angled triangle ABC right-angled at B.

(ii) Paste a long thick string along one of the perpendicular sides, say AB of the triangle.
(iii) Hold the string with your hands on either side of the triangle and rotate the triangle
about the string a number of times.
(iv) You can view the formation of a cone.

In the following figure,
AB is the height (h) of the cone.
AC, the hypotenuse is the slant height (l) of the cone.
BC, the base is the radius (r) of the cone.
By applying Pythagoras theorem, we can say that
A cone has two faces - One is the curved surface and the other is the base which
is circular in shape.
The volume of a cone is one-third of the volume of a cylinder,
which has the same base radius and same height of the cone.
The ratio of volume of a cone to that of volume of cylinder is 1:3.

SPHERE:
A Sphere is a round solid figure with every point on its surface equidistant from its
centre.
 It is perfectly symmetrical.
 All points on the surface are at the same
distance from the centre.
 It has no corners.
 Note that a bangle or a flying disc are not examples of a sphere. They are plane
figures.
 A Sphere has only a curved surface.
Let us now learn a simple activity which illustrates how a sphere is formed by rotating a
circle along its diameter.
Steps for getting a sphere:
1. Take a circular disc.

2. Paste a string along the diameter of the disc.
3. Rotate to see a new solid called a Sphere.
Surface Area and Volume of Sphere

FOR YOUR INFORMATION:
RIGHT CIRCULAR CYLINDER
A right circular cylinder is a cylinder whose base is a circle and whose elements
are perpendicular to its base.
RIGHT CIRCULAR CONE
A right circular cone is a cone, where the axis of the cone is the line meeting the
vertex at the midpoint of the circular base.
HEMI-SPHERE:
A plane through the center of the sphere cuts it into two equal parts. Each part is
called a Hemisphere.
Here are some conversions which will help you to express your answers in
different units.

VOLUME:
VOLUME: 1 cm3 = 1 ml
1000 cm3 = 1000 ml = 1 litre
1 m3 = 1000 litres = 1 Kilolitre
