Surface Areas and Volumes of Different Solids

1. Cuboid

cuboid is a three-dimensional figure with six rectangular faces. It has three dimensions: length (l), breadth (b), and height (h).

  • Total Surface Area (TSA):
    TSA=2(lb+bh+hl)

  • Lateral Surface Area (LSA) (excluding top and bottom surfaces):
    LSA=2h(l+b)

  • Volume:
    V=l×b×h

2. Cube

cube is a special case of a cuboid where all sides are equal, i.e., length = breadth = height = a.

  • Total Surface Area (TSA):
    TSA=6a2

  • Lateral Surface Area (LSA):
    LSA=4a2

  • Volume:
    V=a3

3. Cylinder

cylinder has two parallel circular bases and a curved surface. The radius of the base is r and the height is h.

  • Curved Surface Area (CSA):
    CSA=2πrh

  • Total Surface Area (TSA) (including top and bottom):
    TSA=2πr(r+h)

  • Volume:
    V=πr2h

4. Cone

cone has a circular base and a single vertex. The radius of the base is r, and the slant height is l (with height h).

  • Curved Surface Area (CSA):
    CSA=πrl

  • Total Surface Area (TSA) (including base):
    TSA=πr(l+r)

  • Volume:
    V=13πr2h

  • Relation between slant height, height, and radius (Pythagoras theorem):
    l2=h2+r2

5. Sphere

sphere is a perfectly round three-dimensional object where every point on the surface is equidistant from the center. The radius is r.

  • Surface Area:
    SA=4πr2

  • Volume:
    V=43πr3

6. Hemisphere

hemisphere is half of a sphere, having both a curved surface and a circular base.

  • Curved Surface Area (CSA):
    CSA=2πr2

  • Total Surface Area (TSA) (including the base):
    TSA=3πr2

  • Volume:
    V=23πr3

7. Frustum of a Cone

frustum is formed when a cone is cut parallel to its base and the top portion is removed. The base radii are r₁ and r₂, and the slant height is l.

  • Curved Surface Area (CSA):
    CSA=πl(r1+r2)

  • Total Surface Area (TSA):
    TSA=π[r12+r22+l(r1+r2)]

  • Volume:
    V=13πh(r12+r22+r1r2)

Detailed Formula Breakdown and Key Concepts

Curved Surface Area (CSA) vs. Total Surface Area (TSA):

  • CSA is the area of only the curved part of the solid, excluding the bases.
  • TSA includes both the curved area and the area of the bases (for shapes like cylinders, cones, and hemispheres).

Volume:

  • Volume measures the capacity of a solid or how much space it occupies.

  • The formulas for volume vary depending on the shape, and each solid's formula involves different geometric dimensions (radius, height, slant height, etc.).

Frustum:

The frustum of a cone is a truncated cone, and its volume and surface area are derived from both the base and top radii. This concept is particularly useful in real-life applications like calculating the volume of objects like buckets, lampshades, etc.

Applications and Problem Solving

The chapter often involves word problems that apply these formulas in real-life contexts. Here’s a step-by-step approach to solving these problems:

  1. Understand the Shape:
    Identify the shape involved (cuboid, cylinder, sphere, etc.) and its dimensions from the problem statement.

  2. Select the Appropriate Formula:
    Based on whether you're asked for surface area or volume, use the correct formula from the formulas provided above.

  3. Substitute the Given Values:
    Input the given dimensions (e.g., radius, height, length) into the formula.

  4. Solve and Simplify:
    Carry out the necessary calculations, paying attention to units (e.g., square units for area, cubic units for volume).

Key Examples from NCERT

Example 1: Surface Area of a Cylinder

Given a cylinder with radius r = 7 cm and height h = 10 cm, find the total surface area.

  • TSA of Cylinder:
    TSA=2πr(r+h)
    Substituting the values,
    TSA=2×3.14×7(7+10)
    TSA=439.6cm2

Example 2: Volume of a Cone

Find the volume of a cone with a radius of r = 5 cm and height h = 12 cm.

  • Volume of Cone:
    V=13πr2h
    V=13×3.14×52×12
    V=314cm3

Example 3: Frustum of a Cone

A frustum of a cone has base radii of r₁ = 6 cm and r₂ = 4 cm, and a height h = 8 cm. Find its volume.

  • Volume of Frustum:
    V=13πh(r12+r22+r1r2)
    Substituting the values,
    V=13×3.14×8(62+42+6×4)
    V=603.2cm3

Practical Applications of Surface Areas and Volumes:

  1. Architecture and Construction:
    Surface area and volume calculations help in determining the amount of material required for construction (e.g., paint for walls, concrete for pillars).

  2. Packaging Industry:
    Volumes are used to design containers, bottles, and boxes to ensure optimal space usage.

  3. Real-life Objects:
    Many household items, from water tanks to vases, rely on the principles of these formulas for their design.
