PSEB Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 6 Triangles Ex 6.6

Question 1.
In figure, PS is bisector of ∠QPR of ∆PQR. Prove that = \(\frac{\mathrm{QS}}{\mathrm{SR}}=\frac{\mathrm{PQ}}{\mathrm{PR}}\).

Solution:
Given: ∆PQR. PS is bisector of ∠QPR
i.e., ∠1 = ∠2
To prove: \(\frac{\mathrm{QS}}{\mathrm{SR}}=\frac{\mathrm{PQ}}{\mathrm{PR}}\)
Construction : Through R draw a line parallel to PS to meet QP produced at T.
Proof: In ∆QRT, PS || TR

∠1 = ∠4 (Corresponding angle)
but ∠1 = ∠2 (given)
∴ ∠3 = ∠4
In ∆PRT,
∠3 = ∠4 (Proved)
PT = PR
[Equal side have equal angle opposite to it]
In ∆QRT,
PS || TR
∴ \(\frac{\mathrm{QP}}{\mathrm{PT}}=\frac{\mathrm{QS}}{\mathrm{SR}}\)
[By Basic Proportionality Theorem]
\(\frac{\mathrm{QP}}{\mathrm{PR}}=\frac{\mathrm{QS}}{\mathrm{SR}}\) (PT = PR)
\(\frac{\mathrm{PQ}}{\mathrm{PR}}=\frac{\mathrm{QS}}{\mathrm{SR}}\)
Which is the required result.

Question 2.
In the given fig., D is a point on hypotenuse AC of ∆ABC, DM ⊥ BC, DN ⊥ AB, prove that:
(i) DM² = DN.MC
(ii) DN² = OMAN.

Solution:
Given: ∆ABC, DM ⊥ BC, DN ⊥ AB
To prove: DM² = DN . AC
DN² = DM . AN.
Proof: BD ⊥ AC (Given)
⇒ ∠BDC = 90°
⇒ ∠BDM + ∠MDC = 90°
In ∠DMC, ∠DMC = 90°
[∵ DM ⊥ BC (Given)]
⇒ ∠C + ∠MDC = 90°
From (1) and (2),
∠BDM + ∠MDC = ∠C + ∠MDC
∠BDM =∠C
[Cancelling ∠MDC from both sides]
Now in ∆BMD and ∆MDC,
∠BDM = ∠C [Proved)
∠BMD = ∠DMC [Each 90°]
∆BMD ~ ∆MDC [By AA criterion of similarity]
⇒ \(\frac{\mathrm{DM}}{\mathrm{BM}}=\frac{\mathrm{MC}}{\mathrm{DM}}\)
[∵ Corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional]
⇒ DM² = BM × MC
⇒ DM² = DN × MC [∵ BM = DN]
Similarly, ∆NDA ~ ∆NBD
⇒ \(\frac{\mathrm{DN}}{\mathrm{BN}}=\frac{\mathrm{AN}}{\mathrm{DN}}\)
[∵ Corresponding sides of similar triangles are próportional]
⇒ DN² = BN × AN
⇒ DN² = DM × AN .
Hence proved.

Question 3.
In fig., ABC is triangle in which ∠ABC > 90° and AD ⊥ BC produced, prove that AC² = AB² + BC² + 2BC.BD.

Solution:
Given: ∠ABC, AD ⊥ BC when produced, ∠ABC > 90°.
To prove : AC² = AB² + BC² + 2BC. BD.
Proof: Let BC = a,
CA = b,
AB = c,
AD = h
and BD = x.
In right-angled ∆ADB,
Using Pythagoras Theorem.
AB² = BD² + AD²
i.e., c² = x² + h²
Again, in right-angled AADC,
AC² = CD² + AD²
i.e.. b² = (a + x)² + h²
= a² + 2ax + x² + h²
= a² + 2ax + c²; [Using (1)]
b² = a² + b² + 2w.
Hence, AB² = BC² + AC² + 2BC × CD.

Question 4.
In fig., ABC is a triangle in which ∠ABC < 90°, AD ⊥ BC, prove that AC² = AB² + BC² – 2BC.BD.

Solution:
Given: ∆ ABC, ∠ABC < 90°, AD ⊥ BC.
To prove : AC² = AB² + BC² – 2BC BD.
Proof: ADC is right-angled z at D
AC² = CD² + DA² (Pythagora’s Theorem) ……………..(1)
Also, ADB is right angled ∆ at D
AB² = AD² + DB² ……………….(2)
From (1), we get:
AC² = AD² + (CB – BD)²
= AD² + CB² + BD² – 2CB × BD
or AC² = (BD² + AD²) + CB² – 2CB × BD
AC² = AB² + BC² – 2BC × BD. [Using (2)]

Question 5.
In fig., AD is a median of a triangle ABC and AM ⊥ BC. Prove that:
(i) AC² = AD² + BC. DM + \(\left(\frac{B C}{2}\right)^{2}\)
(ii) AB² = AD² ± BC.DM + \(\left(\frac{B C}{2}\right)^{2}\)
(iii) AC² + AB² = 2 AD² + \(\frac{1}{2}\) BC²

Solution:
Given: ∆ABC, AM ⊥ BC,
AD is median of ¿ABC.
To prove:
(i) AC² = AD² + BC. DM + \(\left(\frac{B C}{2}\right)^{2}\)
(ii) AB² = AD² ± BC.DM + \(\left(\frac{B C}{2}\right)^{2}\)
(iii) AC² + AB² = 2 AD² + \(\frac{1}{2}\) BC²
Proof: In ∆AMC.
AC² = AM² + MC²
= AM² + (MD + DC)²
AC² = AM² + MD² + DC² + 2MD × DC
AC² = (AM² + MD²) + \(\left(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{2}\right)^{2}\) + 2 . MD \(\left(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{2}\right)\)
AC² = AD² + BC . MD + \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}^{2}}{4}\) …………(1)

(ii) In right angled triangle AME,
AB² = AM² + BM²
= AM² + (BD – MD)²
=AM² + BD² + MD² – 2BD × MD
= (AM² + MD²) + BD² – 2(\(\frac{1}{2}\) BC) MD
= AD² + (\(\frac{1}{2}\) BC)² – BC . MD
[∵ In ∆ AMD; AD² = MA² + MD²]
AB² + AD² (\(\left(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{2}\right)^{2}\)) – BC . MD ………….(2)

(iii) Adding (1) and (2),
AB² + AC² = AD² + BC.MD + (\(\left(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{2}\right)^{2}\)) + AD² + (\(\left(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{2}\right)^{2}\)) – BC . MD
= 2 AD² + \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}^{2}}{4}+\frac{\mathrm{BC}^{2}}{4}\)
= 2AD² + 2 \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}^{2}}{4}\)
AB² + AC² = 2AD² + \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}^{2}}{2}\)
Which is the required result.

Question 6.
Prove that sum of squares of the diagonals of a parallelogram is equal to sum of squares of its sides.
Solution:

Given:
Let ABCD be a parallelogram in which diagonalš AC and BD intersect at point M.
To prove: AB² + BC² + CD² + DA² = AC² + BD²
Solution:
Proof: Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
∴ In || gm ABCD,
Diagonal BD and AC bisect each other.
Or MB and MD are medians of ∆ABC and ∆ADC respectively.
We know that, if AD is a medians of ¿ABC,
then AB² + AC² = 2AD² + BC²
Using this result, we get:
AB² + BC² = 2 BM² + \(\frac{1}{2}\) AC² ………..(1)
and AD² + CD² = 2 DM² + \(\frac{1}{2}\) AC² ………….(2)
Adding (1) and (2), we get:
AB² + BC² + AD² + CD² = 2 (BM² + DM²) + (AC² + AC²)
AB² + BC² + AD² + CD² = 2 (\(\frac{1}{2}\) BD² + \(\frac{1}{4}\) BD²) + AC²
AB² + BC² + AD² + CD² = BD² + AC²
Hence, sum of the squares of the diagonals of a parallelogram is equal to the sum of the squares of its sides.

Question 7.
In fig., two chords AB and CD intersect each other at the point P prove that:
(i) ∆APC ~ ∆DPB
(ii) AP.PB = CP.DP.

Solution:
Given: Circle, AB and CD are two chords intersects each other at P.

To prove:
(i) ∆APC ~ ∆DPB
(ii) AP.PB = CP.DP.
Proof:
(i) In ∆APC and ∆DPB,
∠1 = ∠2 (Vertically opposite angle)
∠3 = ∠4 (angle on same segment)
∴ ∆APC ~ ∆DPB [AA similarity criterion]

(ii) ∆APC ~ ∆DPB (Proved above)
\(\frac{\mathrm{AP}}{\mathrm{DP}}=\frac{\mathrm{PC}}{\mathrm{PB}}\)
(If two triangles are sitnilar corresponding sides are proportional)
AP.PB = PC.DP
Which is the required result.

Question 8.
In fig., two chords AB and CD of a circle intersect each other at point P (when produced) outside the circle prove:
(i) ∆PAC ~ ∆PDB
(ii) PA.PB = PC.PD.

Solution:
Given: AB and CD are two chord of circle intersects each other at P (when produced)
To prove:
(i) ∆PAC ~ ∆PDB
(ii) PA.PB = PC.PD.
Proof:
(i) In ∆PAC and ∆PDB,
∠P = ∠P (Common)
∠PAC = ∠PDB.
(Exterior angle of cyclic quadrilqteral is equal to interior opposite angle)
∴ ∆PAC ~ ∆PDB [AA similarity criterion]

(ii) ∆PAB ~ ∆WDB
∴ \(\frac{\mathrm{PA}}{\mathrm{PD}}=\frac{\mathrm{PC}}{\mathrm{PB}}\)
[If two triangles are similar corresponding sides are proportional]
PA × PB = PC × PD.

Question 9.
In fig., D is a point on side BC of BD AB ∆ABC such that \(\frac{\mathbf{B D}}{\mathbf{D C}}=\frac{\mathbf{A B}}{\mathbf{A C}}\). Prove that: AD is bisector of ∠BAC.

Solution:
Given: A ∆ABC, D is a point on BC such that \(\frac{\mathbf{B D}}{\mathbf{D C}}=\frac{\mathbf{A B}}{\mathbf{A C}}\)
To prove: AD bisects ∠BAC
i.e., ∠1 = ∠2
Construction: Through C draw CE || DA meeting BA produced at E.

Proof:
In ∆BCE, we have:
AD || CE ………(const.)
So, by Basic Proportionality Theorem,
But \(\frac{\mathrm{BD}}{\mathrm{DC}}=\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{AE}}\)
\(\frac{\mathrm{BD}}{\mathrm{DC}}=\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{AC}}\)

⇒ \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{AE}}=\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{AC}}\)
⇒ AE = AC

In ∆ACE, we have:
AE = AC
⇒ ∠3 = ∠4 ………. (∠s opp. to equal sides)
Since CE || DA and AC cuts them, then:
∠2 = ∠4 ……….(alt ∠s)
Also CE || DA and BAE cuts them, then:
∠1 = ∠3 …………(Corr. ∠s)
Thus we have:
∠3 = ∠4
⇒ ∠3 = ∠1
But ∠4 = ∠2
⇒ ∠1 = ∠2.
HenCe AD bisects ∠BAC.

Question 10.
Nazima is fly fishing in a stream. The tip of her fishing rod is 1.8 m above the surface of the water and the fly at the end of the string rests on the water 3.6 m away and 2.4 m from a point directly under the tip of the rod. Assuming that her string (from the tip of her rod to the fly) is taut, how much string does she have out? If she pulls in the string at the rate of 5 cm per second, what will the horizontal distance of the fly from her after 12 seconds?

Solution:
A right angled triangle, ABC, in which,
AB = 1.8 cm,
BC = 2.4 cm.
∠B = 90°
By Pythagoras Theorem,
AC² = AB² + BC²
AC² = (1.8)² + (2.4)²
AC² = 3.24 + 5.76 =9
AC² = (3)²
AC = 3 cm
Now, when Nazima pulls in the string at the rate of 5 cm/sec ; then the length of the string decrease = 5 × 12 = 60 cm
= 0.6 m in 12 seconds.
Let after 12 seconds, position of the fly will be at D.
∴ AD = AC – distance covered in 12 seconds
AD = (3 – 0.6) m
AD = 2.4 m
Also, in right angled ∆ABD,
Using Pythagoras Theorem,
AD² = AB² + BD²
(2.4)² = (1.8)² + BD²
BD² = 5.76 – 3.24
BD² = 2.52 m
BD = 1.587 m.
∴ Horizontal distance of the fly from Nazima = BD + 1.2 m
= (1.587 + 1.2) m
= 2.787 m
= 2.79 m
Hence, original length of string and horizontal distance of the fly from Nazima is 3 m and 2.79 m.

PSEB Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 13 Surface Areas and Volumes Ex 13.3

Note: Assume π = \(\frac{22}{7}\), unless stated otherwise.

Question 1.
Diameter of the base of a cone is 10.5 cm and its slant height is 10 cm. Find its curved surface area.
Answer:
For the given cone, diameter d = 10.5 cm.
Then, radius r = \(\frac{10.5}{2}\) cm and slant height
l = 10 cm.
Curved surface area of a cone
= πrl
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × \(\frac{10.5}{2}\) × 10 cm²
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × \(\frac{105}{2}\) × cm²
= 11 × 15 cm²
= 165 cm²
Thus, the curved surface area of the given cone is 165 cm².

Question 2.
Find the total surface area of a cone, if its slant height is 21 m and diameter of its base is 24 m.
Answer:
For the given cone, diameter d = 24 m.
Then, radius r = \(\frac{24}{2}\) = 12 m and slant height l = 21 m.
Total surface area of a cone
= πr (l + r)
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 12(21 + 12) m²
= \(\frac{22 \times 12 \times 33}{7}\) m²
= \(\frac{8712}{7}\) m²
= 1244.57 m²
Thus, the total surface area of the given cone is 1244.57 m².

Question 3.
Curved surface area of a cone is 308 cm2 and its slant height is 14 cm. Find,
(i) radius of the base and
(ii) total surface area of the cone.
Answer:
For the given cone, slant height l = 14 cm and curved surface area = 308 cm²
(i) Curved surface area of a cone = πrl
∴ 308 cm² = \(\frac{22}{7}\) × r × 14 cm
∴ \(\frac{308 \times 7}{22 \times 14}\) cm = r
∴ r = 7 cm
Thus, the radius of the base of the cone is 7 cm.

(ii) Total surface area of a cone
= πrl + πr²
= 308 + \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 7 × 7 cm²
= 308 + 154 cm²
= 462 cm²
Thus, the total surface area of the cone is 462 cm².

Question 4.
A conical tent is 10 m high and the radius of its base is 24 m. Find
(i) slant height of the tent.
(ii) cost of the canvas required to make the tent, if the cost of 1 m² canvas is ₹ 70.
Answer:
For the conical tent,
radius r = 24 m and height h = 10 m.

(i) l = \(\sqrt{h^{2}+r^{2}}\)
= \(\sqrt{10^{2}+24^{2}}\)
= \(\sqrt{100+576}\)
= \(\sqrt{676}\)
∴ l = 26 m
Thus, the slant height of the tent is 26 m.

(ii) Area of the canvas used to make tent
= Curved surface area of the conical tent
= πrl
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 24 × 26 m²
= \(\frac{13728}{7}\) m²
Cost of 1 m² canvas = ₹ 70
∴ Cost of \(\frac{13728}{7}\) m² canvas
= ₹ \(\left(70 \times \frac{13728}{7}\right)\)
= ₹ 1,37,280
Thus, the cost of canvas required is ₹ 1,37,280.

Question 5.
What length of tarpaulin 3 m wide will be required to make conical tent of height 8 m and base radius 6m? Assume that the extra length of material that will be required for stitching margins and wastage in cutting is approximately 20 cm.
(Use π = 3.14)
Answer:
For the conical tent to be made, radius r = 6 m and height h = 8 m.
l² = h² + r² = 8² + 6² = 64 + 36 = 100
∴ l = √100 = 10 m
Area of the tarpaulin used in making tent
= Curved surface area of conical tent
= πrl
= 3.14 × 6 × 10 m²
= 188.4 m²
Now, the width of the tarpaulin is 3 m.
∴ Length of tarpaulin required = \(\frac{188.4}{3}\) m
= 62.8 m
But, 20 cm, i.e., 0.2 m of tarpaulin is required more for margins and wastage.
∴ Total length of the tarpaulin required = 62.8 + 0.2 m = 63 m
Thus, total length of tarpaulin required is 63 m.

Question 6.
The slant height and base diameter of a conical tomb are 25 m and 14 m respectively. Find the cost of whitewashing its curved surface at the rate of ₹ 210 per 100 m².
Answer:
For the given conical tomb,
radius r = \(\frac{\text { diameter }}{2}\) = \(\frac{14}{2}\) = 7 m
and slant height l = 25 m. .
Area of the region to be whitewashed
= Curved surface area of the conical tomb
= πrl
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 7 × 25 m²
= 550 m²
Cost of whitewashing 100 m² region = ₹ 210
∴ Cost of whitewashing 550 m² region
= ₹ \(\left(\frac{210 \times 550}{100}\right)\)
= ₹ 1155
Thus, the cost of whitewashing the curved surface of the tomb is ₹ 1155.

Question 7.
A joker’s cap is in the form of a right circular cone of base radius 7 cm and height 24 cm. Find the area of the sheet required to make 10 such caps.
Answer:
For the conical cap, radius r = 7 cm and height h = 24 cm.
l = \(\sqrt{h^{2}+r^{2}}\)
= \(\sqrt{24^{2}+7^{2}}\)
= \(\sqrt{576+49}\)
= \(\sqrt{625}\) = 25 cm
Area of the sheet required to make 1 conical cap
= Curved surface area of the conical cap
= πrl
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 7 × 25 cm²
= 550 cm²
Area of sheet required to make 1 cap = 550 cm²
∴ Area of sheet required to make 10 caps
= 550 × 10 cm²
= 5500 cm²
Thus, the area of the sheet required to make 10 caps is 5500 cm²

Question 8.
A bus stop is barricaded from the remaining part of the road, by using 50 hollow cones made of recycled carboard. Each cone has a base diameter of 40 cm and height 1 m. If the outer side of each of the cones is to be painted and the cost of painting is ₹ 12 per m², what will be the cost of painting all these cones? (Use π = 3.14 and take \(\sqrt{1.04}\) = 1.02)
Answer:
For the given cone,
radius r = \(\frac{\text { diameter }}{2}\) = \(\frac{40}{2}\) = 20 cm = 0.2 m and
height h = 1 m.
l = \(\sqrt{h^{2}+r^{2}}\)
= \(\sqrt{1^{2}+0.2^{2}}\)
= \(\sqrt{1.04}\)
= 1.02 m
Curved surface area of a cone
= πrl
= 3.14 × 0.2 × 1.02 m²
∴ Curved surface area of 50 cones
= 50 × 3.14 × 0.2 × 1.02 m²
= 32.028 m²
Cost of painting 1 m² region = ₹ 12
∴ Cost of painting 32.028 m² region
= ₹ (12 × 32.028)
= ₹ 384.34 (approx.)
Thus, the cost of painting all the 50 cones is ₹ 384.34 (approx.)

PSEB Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 13 Surface Areas and Volumes Ex 13.2

Note: Assume π = \(\frac{22}{7}\), unless stated otherwise.

Question 1.
The curved surface area of a right circular cylinder of height 14 cm is 88 cm². Find the diameter of the base of the cylinder.
Answer:
Height of cylinder h = 14 cm.
Curved surface area of a cylinder = 2 πrh
∴ 88 cm² = 2 × r × 14cm
∴ \(\frac{88 \times 7}{2 \times 22 \times 14}\) cm = r
∴ r = 1 cm
Now, diameter of the cylinder = 2r = 2 × 1 cm
= 2 cm
Thus, the diameter of the base of the cylinder is 2 cm.

Question 2.
It is required to make a closed cylindrical tank of height 1 m and base diameter 140 cm from a metal sheet. How many square metres of the sheet are required for the same ?
Answer:
Height of cylindrical tank h = 1 m
Diameter of the cylinder =140 cm
∴ Radius of the cylinder r = \(\frac{\text { diameter }}{2}\)
= \(\frac{140}{2}\) cm
= 70 cm
= 0.7 m
Total surface area of the closed cylindrical tank
= 2πr (r + h)
= 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 0.7 (0.7 + 1) m²
= 4.4 × 1.7 m²
= 7.48 m²
Thus, 7.48 m² sheet is required to make the closed cylindrical tank.

Question 3.
A metal pipe is 77 cm long. The inner diameter of a cross section is 4 cm, the outer diameter being 4.4 cm (see the given figure). Find its

(i) inner curved surface area,
Answer:
For inner cylinder, diameter = 4 cm
∴ For inner cylinder,
radius r = \(\frac{\text { diameter }}{2}\) = 2 cm
and height (length) h = 77 cm.
Inner curved surface area of the pipe
= 2πrh
= 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 2 × 77 cm²
= 968 cm²
Thus, the inner curved surface area is 968 cm².

(ii) outer curved surface, area,
Answer:
For outer cylinder, diameter = 4.4 cm
∴ For outer cylinder,
radius R = \(\frac{\text { diameter }}{2}\) = \(\frac{4.4}{2}\) = 2.2
and height h = 77 cm.
Outer curved surface area of the pipe
= 2πRh
= 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 2 × 77 cm²
= 1064.8 cm²
Thus, the outer curved surface area is
1064.8 cm².

(iii) total surface area.
Answer:
Total surface area includes the area of two circular rings at the ends together with the inner and outer curved surface areas.
For each circular ring, outer radius R = 2.2 cm and inner radius r = 2 cm
Area of one circular ring
= π(R² – r²)
= \(\frac{22}{7}\)(2.2² – 2²)cm²
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) (4.84 – 4) cm²
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 0.84 cm²
= 2.64 cm²
∴ Area of two circular rings.
= 2 × 2.64 cm²
= 5.28 cm²
Now, total surface area of the pipe = Inner curved surface area + outer curved surface area + area of two circular rings
= 968 + 1064.8 + 5.28 cm²
= 2038.08 cm²

Question 4.
The diameter of a roller is 84 cm and its length is 120 cm. It takes 500 complete revolutions to move once over to level a playground. Find the area of the playground in m².
Answer:
For the cylindrical roller, diameter d = 84 cm and height (length) h = 120 cm.
Curved surface area of the cylindrical roller
= πdh
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 84 × 120 cm²
= 31680 cm²
= \(\frac{31680}{10000}\) m²
= 3.168 m²
Thus, the area of playground levelled in 1 complete revolution of the roller = 3.168 m²
∴ The area of playground levelled in 500 complete revolutions of the roller
= 3.168 × 500 m² = 1584 m²
Thus, the area of the playground is 1584 m².

Question 5.
A cylindrical pillar is 50 cm in diameter and 3.5 m in height. Find the cost of painting the curved surface of the pillar at the rate of ₹ 12.50 per m².
Answer:
For the cylindrical pillar, diameter d = 50 cm = 0.5 m and height h = 3.5 m.
Curved surface area of the cylindrical pillar
= πdh
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 0.5 × 3.5 m²
= 5.5 m²
Cost of painting 1 m² area = ₹ 12.50
∴ Cost of painting 5.5 m2 area = ₹ (12.50 x 5.5)
= ₹ 68.75
Thus, the cost of painting the curved surface of the pillar is ₹ 68.75.

Question 6.
Curved surface area of a right circular cylinder is 4.4 m². If the radius of the base of the cylinder is 0.7 m, find its height.
Answer:
For the given cylinder, radius r = 0.7 m and
curved surface area = 4.4 m².
Curved surface area of a cylinder = 2πrh
∴ 4.4 m² = 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 0.7m × h
∴ h = \(\frac{4.4 \times 7}{2 \times 22 \times 0.7}\)m
∴ h = 1 m
Thus, the height of the cylinder is 1 m.

Question 7.
The inner diameter of a circular well is 3.5 m. It is 10 m deep. Find
(i) its inner curved surface area,
(ii) the cost of plastering this curved surface at the rate of ₹ 40 per m².
Answer:
A circular well means a cylindrical well. For the cylindrical well, diameter d = 3.5 m and height (depth) h = 10 m.
(i) Curved surface area of the well
= πdh
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 3.5 × 10 m²
= 110 m²

(ii) Cost of plastering 1 m² region = ₹ 40
∴ Cost of plastering 110 m2 region
= ₹ (40 × 110)
= ₹ 4400

Question 8.
In a hot water heating system, there is a cylindrical pipe of length 28 m and diameter 5 cm. Find the total radiating surface in the system.
Answer:
For the cylindrical pipe, diameter d = 5 cm = 0.05 m and height (length) h = 28 m.
The radiation surface in the system is the •curved surface of the pipe.
Hence, we find the curved surface area of the cylindrical pipe.
Curved surface area of the cylindrical pipe
= πdh
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 0.05 × 28 m²
= 4.4 m²
Thus, the total radiating surface in the system is 4.4 m².

Question 9.
Find: (i) the lateral or curved surface area of a closed cylindrical petrol storage tank that is 4.2 m in diameter and 4.5 m high.
(ii) how much steel was actually used, if \(\frac{1}{12}\) of the steel actually used was wasted in making the tank.
Answer:
For the closed cylindrical tank, diameter d = 4.2 m, hence radius
r = \(\frac{4.2}{2}\) = 2.1 m and height h = 4.5 m.

(i) Curved surface area of the cylindrical tank
= 2 πrh
= 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 2.1 × 4.5 m²
= 59.4 m²

(ii) Total surface area of the closed cylindrical tank
= 2πr (r + h)
= 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 2.1 (2.1 + 4.5) m²
= 13.2 × 6.6 m²
= 87.12 m²
Suppose, x m² steel was used for making the tank. But during production, \(\frac{1}{12}\) of the steel was wasted.
∴ Actual quantity of steel used = \(\frac{11}{12}\)x m².
Hence, \(\frac{11}{12}\)x = 87.12
∴ x = \(\frac{8712}{100} \times \frac{12}{11}\)
∴ x = 95.04 m²
Thus, the quantity of steel actually used during the preparation of the tank is 95.04 m².

Question 10.
In the given figure, you see the frame of a lampshade. It is to be covered with a decorative cloth. The frame has a base diameter of 20 cm and height of 30 cm. A margin of 2.5 cm is to be given for folding it over the top and bottom of the frame. Find how much cloth is required for covering the lampshade.

Answer:
The shape of the decorative cloth will be cylindrical.
For the cylinder of cloth, diameter d = 20 cm and height h = 30 cm + 2.5 cm + 2.5 cm = 35 cm.
Curved surface area of the cylinder of cloth
= πdh
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 20 × 35 cm²
Thus, 2200 cm² cloth is required for covering the lampshade.

Question 11.
The students of Vidyalaya were asked to participate in a competition for making and decorating penholders in the shape of a cylinder with a base, using cardboard. Each penholder was to be of radius 3 cm and height 10.5 cm. The Vidyalaya was to supply the competitors with cardboards. If there were 35 competitors, how much cardboard was required to be bought for the competition ?
Answer:
The cylindrical penholders to be made have base but open at the top. Thus, to prepare a penholder, the area of the cardboard required will be given by the curved surface area of the cylinder and the area of base.

For cylindrical penholder, radius r = 3 cm and height h = 10.5 cm.
Area of cardboard required for 1 penholder
= Curved surface area of cylinder + Area of base
= 2πrh + πr²
= πr (2h + r)
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 3(2 × 10.5 + 3) cm2
= \(\frac{66 \times 24}{7}\) cm²
∴ Area of the cardboard required for 35 penholders
= 35 × \(\frac{66 \times 24}{7}\) cm²
= 7920 cm²
Thus, 7920 cm² cardboard was required to be bought for the competition.

PSEB Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 13 Surface Areas and Volumes Ex 13.1

Question 1.
A plastic box 1.5 m long, 1.25 m wide and 65 cm deep is to be made. It is open at the top. Ignoring the thickness of the plastic sheet, determine: (i) The area of the sheet required for making the box. (ii) The cost of sheet for it, if a sheet measuring 1 m² costs ₹ 20.
Answer:
The plastic box to be made is open at the top. Hence, the plastic sheet is required for the lateral surfaces and the base.
Here, for the box to be made,
length l = 1.5 m;
breadth b = 1.25 m and
height h = 65 cm = 0.65 m.
Area of the plastic sheet required for open box = Lateral surface area + Area of base
= 2 h(l + b) + l × b
= 2 × 0.65 (1.5 + 1.25) + 1.5 × 1.25 m²
= 1.3 × 2.75 + 1.875 m²
= 3.575 + 1.875 m²
= 5.45 m²
Cost of 1 m² sheet = ₹ 20
∴ Cost of 5.45 m² sheet = ₹ (5.45 × ₹ 20)
= ₹ 109

Question 2.
The length, breadth and height of a room are 5 m, 4 m and 3 m respectively. Find the cost of white washing the walls of the room and the ceiling at the rate of ₹ 7.50 per m².
Answer:
For the given room, length 1 = 5 m; breadth b = 4 m and height h = 3 m.
Area of the region to be white washed
= Area of four walls + Area of ceiling
= 2 h(l + b) + l × b
= 2 × 3 (5 + 4) + 5 × 4 m²
= 54 + 20 m²
= 74 m²
Cost of white washing 1 m² region = ₹ 7.5
∴ Cost of white washing 74 m² region
= ₹ (74 × 7.5)
= ₹ 555

Question 3.
The floor of a rectangular hall has a perimeter 250 m. If the cost of painting the four walls at the rate of ₹ 10 per m² is ₹ 15,000, find the height of the hall. [Hint: Area of the four walls = Lateral surface area.]
Answer:
Area painted at the cost of ₹ 10 = 1 m²
∴ Area painted at the cost of ₹ 15,000
= \(\frac{15000}{10}\)
= 1500 m²
∴ Area of the four walls = 1500m²
∴ Lateral surface area = 1500 m²
∴ Perimeter Of the floor × Height = 1500 m²
∴ 250 m × Height = 1500 m²
∴ Height = \(\frac{15000}{250}\)
∴ Height = 6 m

Question 4.
The paint in a certain container is sufficient to paint an area equal to 9.375 m². How many bricks of dimensions 22.5 cm × 10 cm× 7.5 cm can be painted out of this container?
Answer:
For each brick, length l = 22.5 cm; breadth b = 10 cm and height h = 7.5 cm.
Total surface area of one brick
= 2 (lb + bh + hl)
= 2 (22.5 × 10 + 10 × 7.5 + 7.5 × 22.5) cm²
= 2 (225 + 75 + 168.75) cm²
= 2 (468.75) cm²
= 937.5 cm²
= \(\frac{937.5}{10000}\) m² = 0.09375 m²
No. of bricks that can be painted with paint sufficient to paint 0.09375 m² area = 1
∴ No. of bricks that can be painted with paint sufficient to paint 9.375 m² area 9.375
= \(\frac{9.375}{0.09375}\) = 100

Question 5.
A cubical box has each edge 10 cm and |> another cuboidal box is 12.5 cm long, 10 cm wide and 8 cm high.
(i) Which box has the greater lateral surface area and by how much?
(ii) Which box has the smaller total surface area and by how much ?
Answer:
For the cubical box, edge a = 10 cm and for the cuboidal box, length l = 12.5 cm; breadth b = 10 cm and height h = 8 cm
(i) Lateral surface area of cubical box
= 4a²
= 4 (10)² cm²
= 400 cm
Lateral surface area of cuboidal box
= 2h(l + b)
= 2 × 8(12.5 + 10) cm²
= 16 × 22.5 cm²
= 360 cm²
Thus, the lateral surface area of cubical box is greater by 40 cm² (400 – 360).

(ii) Total surface area of cubical box = 6a2
= 6 (10)² cm²
= 600 cm²
Total surface area of cuboidal box
= 2 (lb + bh + hl)
= 2(12.5 × 10 + 10 × 8 + 8 × 12.5) cm²
= 2 (125 + 80 + 100) cm²
= 2 (305) cm²
= 610 cm²
Thus, the total surface area of cubical box is smaller by 10 cm² (610 – 600).

Question 6.
A small indoor greenhouse (herbarium) is made entirely of glass panes (including base) held together with tape. It is 30 cm long, 25 cm wide and 25 cm high.
(i) What is the area of the glass ?
(ii) How much of tape is needed for all the 12 edges ?
Answer:
(i) For the cuboidal greenhouse, length l = 30 cm; breadth fa = 25 cm and height h = 25 cm.
Area of glass used
= Total surface area of cuboid
= 2 (lb + bh + hl)
= 2 (30 × 25 + 25 × 25 + 25 × 30) cm²
= 2 (750 + 625 + 750) cm²
= 2 (2125) cm²
= 4250 cm²

(ii) 12 edges of the cuboidal greenhouse is made-up of 4 lengths, 4 breadths and 4 heights.
∴ Length of tape needed for 12 edges
= 4l + 4b + 4h
= 4 (l + b + h)
= 4 (30 + 25 + 25) cm
= 4 (80) cm
= 320 cm

Question 7.
Shanti Sweets Stall was placing an order for making cardboard boxes for packing their sweets. Two sizes of boxes were required. The bigger of dimensions 25 cm × 20 cm × 5 cm and the smaller of dimensions 15 cm × 12 cm × 5 cm. For all the overlaps, 5 % of the total surface area is required extra. If the cost of the cardboard is ₹ 4 for 1000 cm², find the cost of cardboard required for supplying 250 boxes of each kind.
Answer:
For bigger cuboidal boxes, length l = 25 cm;
breadth b = 20 cm and height h = 5 cm.
Total surface area of a bigger box
= 2 (lb + bh + hl)
= 2 (25 × 20 + 20 × 5 + 5 × 25) cm²
= 2 (500 + 100 + 125) cm²
= 1450 cm²
Area of cardboard required for overlap
= 5 % of 1450 cm²
= 72.5 cm²
Thus, the total area of cardboard required for 1 bigger box = 1450 + 72.5 cm²
= 1522.5 cm²
∴ The total area of cardboard required for 250 bigger boxes = (1522.5 × 250) cm²
For smaller cuboidal boxes, length l = 15 cm; breadth b = 12 cm and height h = 5 cm.
Total surface area of a smaller box
= 2 (lb + bh + hl)
= 2 (15 × 12 + 12 × 5 + 5 × 15) cm²
= 2(180 +60 + 75) cm²
= 2 (315) cm²
= 630 cm²
Area of cardboard required for overlap
= 5% of 630 cm²
= 31.5 cm²
Thus, the total area of cardboard required for 1 smaller box = 630 + 31.5 cm² = 661.5 cm²
∴ The total area of cardboard required for 250 smaller boxes = (661.5 × 250) cm²
Now, the total area of cardboard required for all the boxes
= (1522.5 × 250) + (661.5 × 250) cm²
= 250(1522.5 + 661.5) cm²
= 250 × 2184 cm²
Cost of 1000 cm² cardboard = ₹ 4
∴ Cost of 250 × 2184 cm² cardboard
= ₹ \(\left(\frac{4 \times 250 \times 2184}{1000}\right)\)
= ₹ 2184

Question 8.
Parveen wanted to make a temporary shelter for her car, by making a box-like structure with tarpaulin that covers all the four sides and the top of the car (with the front face as a flap which can be rolled up). Assuming that the stitching margins are very small, and therefore negligible, how much tarpaulin would be required to make the shelter of height 2.5 m, with base dimensions 4 m × 3 m ?
Answer:
For the box-like structure without base, length
l = 4m; breadth b = 3m and height h = 2.5m.
Area of tarpaulin required
= Area of lateral surfaces + Area of top
= 2 h(l + b) + l × b
= 2 × 2.5 (4 + 3) + 4 × 3 m²
= 35 + 12 m²
= 47 m²

3. Draw any line segment AB. Take any point C between A and B. Measure the lengths of AB, BC and AC. Is AB = AC + CB?
Solution:
If A, B, C are any three points on a line such that AC + CB = AB, then we are sure that C lies between A and B.

On measuring the lengths of AB, BC and AC, we get
AB = 6 cm, AC = 4 cm, CB = 2 cm
Now, AC + CB = 4 cm + 2 cm = 6 cm
Hence, AB = AC + CB.

4. Draw a line segment AB = 5 cm and AC = 9 cm in such a way that points A, B, C are collinear. What is the length of BC?
Solution:

AB = 5 cm and AC = 9 cm
Since, A, B and C are collinear
∴ AB + BC = AC
⇒ 5 cm + BC = 9 cm
⇒ BC = 9 cm – 5 cm
= 4 cm.
Hence, Length of BC = 4 cm
