Question 1.
The radius and height of a cylinder are in the ratio 5 : 7 and its curved surface area is 5500 sq.cm. Find its radius and height.
Answer:
Let the radius be 5x and the height be 7x
C.S.A of a cylinder = 5500 sq.cm.
2πrh = 5500
2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 5x × 7x = 5500
2 × 22 × 5 × x2 = 5500
x2 = \(\frac{5500}{2 \times 22 \times 5}\)
x2 = 25 cm
x = 5 cm
Radius of the cylinder = 5 × 5 = 25 cm
Height of the cylinder = 7 × 5 = 35 cm

Question 2.
A solid iron cylinder has total surface area of 1848 sq.m. Its curved surface area is five-sixth of its total surface area. Find the radius and height of the iron cylinder.
Answer:
T.S.A of the cylinder =1848 sq.cm
2πr(h + r) = 1848 ……. (1)
Curved surface area = \(\frac{5}{6}\) × 1848 sq.cm
2πrh = 5 × 308
2πrh = 1540 sq.m ……… (2)
Substitute the value of2πrh in (1)
2πr(h + r) = 1848
2πrh + 2πr2 = 1848
1540 + 2πr2 = 1848
2πr2 = 1848 – 1540
2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × r2 = 308
r2 = \(\frac{308 \times 7}{2 \times 22}\) = 49
r = 7
Radius of the cylinder = 7m
2πrh = 1540
2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 7 × h = 1540
h = \(\frac{1540}{2 \times 22}\) = 35 m
Radius of the cylinder = 7 m
Height of the cylinder = 35 m

Question 3.
The external radius and the length of a hollow wooden log are 16 cm and 13 cm respectively. If its thickness is 4 cm then find its T.S.A.
Answer:
External radius of the wooden log (R) = 16 cm
Thickness = 4 cm
Internal radius (r) = 16 – 4 = 12 cm
Length of the wooden log (h) = 13 cm
T.S.A of the hollow cylinder = 2π (R + r) (R – r + h) sq.cm
= 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × (16 + 12) (16 – 12 + 13) sq.cm
= 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 28 × 17 sq.cm
= 2 × 22 × 4 × 17 sq.cm.
= 2992 sq.cm.
T.S.A of the hollow wooden = 2992 sq.cm.

Question 4.
A right angled triangle PQR where ∠Q = 90° is rotated about QR and PQ. If QR = 16 cm and PR = 20 cm, compare the curved surface areas of the right circular cones so formed by the triangle.
Answer:
Samacheer Kalvi 10th Maths Guide Chapter 7 Mensuration Ex 7.1 Q4
In the Right Triangle
QP2 = PR2 – QR2= 202 – 162 = 400 – 256 = 144
QP = √144 = 12 cm
When PQ is rotated r = 12, l = 20
C.S.A of the cone = πrl sq. units = π × 12 × 20 cm2 = 240π cm2
When QR is rotated r = 16, l = 20
C.S.A of the cone = nrl sq. units = π × 16 × 20 = 320π cm2
C.S.A. of a cone when rotated about QR is larger.

Question 5.
4 persons live in a conical tent whose slant height is 19 cm. If each person requires 22 cm2 of the floor area, then find the height of the tent.
Answer:
Slant height of a cone (r) = 19 cm
Floor area for 4 persons = 4 × 22 cm2
πr2 = 88 cm
Samacheer Kalvi 10th Maths Guide Chapter 7 Mensuration Ex 7.1 Q5
Height of the tent = 18.25 cm

Question 6.
A girl wishes to prepare birthday caps in the form of right circular cones for her birthday party, using a sheet of paper whose area is 5720 cm2, how many caps can be made with radius 5 cm and height 12 cm.
Answer:
Radius of a cap (r) = 5 cm
