Ex 13.1 Class 9 Maths Question 1.
A plastic box 1.5 m long, 1.25 m wide and 65 cm deep is to be made. It is opened 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 1m2 costs ₹20.
Solution:
(i) Here, length (l) = 1.5 m, bread th(b) = 1 .25 m
and height (h) = 65 cm = 65100 m = 0.65 m

∵ It is open from the top.
∴ Its surface area
= [Lateral surface area] + [Base area]
= [2(1 + b)h] + [lb]
= [2(1.50 + 1.25)0.65] m² + [1.50 x 1.25] m²
= [2 x 2.75 x 0.65] m² + [1.875] m²
= 3.575 m²+ 1.875 m² = 5.45 m²
∴ Area of the sheet required for making the box = 5.45 m²

(ii) Cost of 1 m² sheet = Rs. 20
Cost of 5.45 m² sheet = Rs. (20 x 5.45)
= Rs. 109
Hence, cost of the required sheet = Rs. 109

Ex 13.1 Class 9 Maths 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 ₹17.50 per m².
Solution:
Length of the room (l) = 5 m
Breadth of the room (b) = 4 m
Height of the room (h) = 3 m
The room is like a cuboid whose four walls (lateral surface) and ceiling are to be white washed.
∴ Area for white washing
= [Lateral surface area] + [Area of the ceiling]
= [2(l + b)h] + [l x b]
= [2(5 + 4) x 3] m² + [5 x 4] m² = 54 m² + 20 m² = 74 m²
Cost of white washing for 1 m2 area = Rs. 7.50
∴ Cost of white washing for 74 m² area = Rs. (7.50 x 74) = Rs. 555
Thus, the required cost of white washing = Rs. 555

Ex 13.1 Class 9 Maths 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 ₹15000, find the height of the hall.
[Hint: Area of the four walls = Lateral surface area]
Solution:
A rectangular hall means a cuboid.
Let the length and breadth of the hall be l and b respectively.
∴ Perimeter of the floor = 2(l + b)
⇒ 2(l + b) = 250 m
∵ Area of four walls = Lateral surface area = 2(1 + b) x h, where h is the height of the hall = 250 h m²
Cost of painting the four walls
= Rs. (10 x 250 h) = Rs. 2500h
⇒ 2500 h = 15000 ⇒ h = 150002500 = 6
Thus, the required height of the hall = 6 m

Ex 13.1 Class 9 Maths 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 x 10 cm x 7.5 cm can be painted out of this container.
Solution:
Total area that can be painted = 9.375 m²
Here, Length of a brick (l) = 22.5 cm
Breadth of a brick (b) = 10 cm
Height of a brick (h) = 7.5 cm
Since a brick is like a cuboid, then
Total surface area of a brick = 2[lb + bh + hl]
= 2[(225 x 1(0) + (10 x 7.5) + (7.5 x 22.5)] cm²
= 2[(225) + (75) + (168.75)] cm²
= 2[468.75] cm² = 937.5 cm² = 937.510000 m²
Let the required number of bricks be n
∴ Total surface area of n bricks = n x 937.510000 m²

Thus, the required number of bricks = 100

Ex 13.1 Class 9 Maths 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?
Solution:
For the cubical box with edge (a) = 10 cm
Lateral surface area = 4a² = 4 x 10² cm²
= 400 cm²
Total surface area = 6a² = 6 x 10² cm²
= 600 cm²
For the cuboidal box with dimensions,
Length (l) = 12.5 cm,
Breadth (b) = 10 cm,
Height (h) = 8 cm
∴ Lateral surface area = 2[l + b] x h = 2[12.5 + 10] x 8 cm² = 360 cm²
Total surface area = 2[lb + bh + hl]
= 2[(12.5 x 10) + (10 x 8) + (8 x 12.5)] cm²
= 2[125 + 80 + 100] cm²
= 2[305] cm²
= 610 cm²
(i) A cubical box has the greater lateral surface area by (400 – 360) cm² = 40 cm².
(ii) Total surface area of a cubical box is smaller than the cuboidal box by (610 – 600) cm² = 10 cm².

Ex 13.1 Class 9 Maths Question 6.

(i) What is the area of the glass?
(ii) How much of tape is needed for all the 12 edges?
Solution:
The herbarium is like a cuboid.
Here, length (l) = 30 cm,
breadth (b) = 25 cm,
height (h) = 25 cm
(i) Surface area of the herbarium (glass)
= 2[lb + bh + hl]
= 2[(30 x 25) + (25 x 25) + (25 x 30)] cm² – 2[750 + 625 + 750] cm²
= 2[2125] cm²
= 4250 cm²
Thus, the required area of the glass = 4250 cm²

(ii) Total length of 12 edges = 4l + 4b + 4h
= 4(l + b + h)
= 4(30 + 25 + 25) cm
= 4 x 80 cm = 320 cm
Thus, the required length of tape = 320 cm

Diameter of the base = 140 cm = 1.40 m
Radius (r) = 1.402m = 0.70 m
Total surface area of the cylinder = 2πr (h + r)
= 2 x 227 x 0.70(1 + 0.70)m²
= 2 x 22 x 0.10 x 1.70 m²
= 2 x 22 x 10100 x 170100m²
= 748100m² = 7.48 m²
Hence, the required sheet = 7.48 m²

It is in the form of a cylinder.
∴ Height of the cylinder (h) = 77 cm
Inner diameter = 4 cm
Inner radius (r) = 42 cm = 2 cm
Outer diameter = 4.4 cm
⇒ Outer radius (R) = 4.42 cm = 2.2 cm

(i) Inner curved surface area = 2πrh
= 2 x 227 x 2 x 77 cm²
= 2 x 22 x 2 x 11 cm² = 968 cm²

(ii) Outer curved surface area = 2πRh

(iii)Total surface area = [Inner curved surface area] + [Outer curved surface area] + [Area of two circular ends]
= [2πrh] + [2πRh] + 2[π(R² – r²)]
= [968 cm²] + [1064.8 cm²]

⇒ Radius of the roller(r) = 842 cm = 42 cm
Length of the roller (h) = 120 cm
Curved surface area of the roller = 2πrh
= 2 x 227 x 42 x 120 cm²
= 2 x 22 x 6 x 120 cm² = 31680 cm²
Now, area of the playground levelled in one revolution of the roller = 31680 cm²
= 3168010000m²
∴ Area of the playground levelled in 500
revolutions = 500 x 3168010000m² = 1584m²

∴ Radius (r) = 502m = 25 m = 14m
and height (h) = 3.5m
Curved surface area of a pillar = 2πrh

∴ Curved surface area to be painted = 112m²
∴ Cost of painting of 1 m² pillar = Rs. 12.50
∴ Cost of painting of 112 m² pillar
= Rs. ( 112 x 12.50 )
= Rs. 68.75.

(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 112 of the steel actually used was wasted in making the tank.
Solution:
The storage tank is in the form of a cylinder.
∴ Diameter of the tank = 4.2 m
⇒ Radius (r) = 4.22 = 2.1 m
Height (h) = 4.5 m
Now,
(i) Lateral (or curved) surface area of the tank = 2πrh
= 2 x 227 x 2.1 x 4.5 m²
= 2 x 22 x 0.3 x 4.5 m² 59.4 m²

(ii) Total surface area of the tank = 2πr(r + h)
= 2 x 227 x 2.1(2.1 + 4.5)m²
= 44 x 0.3 x 6.6 m² = 87.13 m²
Let actual area of the steel used be x m²
∴ Area of steel that was wasted = 112 x x m
= x12m²
Area of steel used = x – x12 m²

Thus, the required area of the steel that was actually used is 95.04 m².

If there were 35 competitors, how much cardboard was required to be bought for the competition?
Solution:
Here, the penholders are in the form of cylinder.
Radius of a penholder (r) = 3 cm
Height of a penholder (h) = 10.5 cm
Since, a penholder must be open from the top.
Now, surface area of a penholder = [Lateral surface area] + [Base area]
= [2πrh] + [πr²]

∴ Surface area of 35 penholders
= 35 x 15847 cm² = 7920 cm²

Height(h) = 8m
∴ Slant height (l) = r2−h2−−−−−−√ = 62−82−−−−−−√ m
= 36+64−−−−−−√ m
= 100−−−√m = 10 m
Now, curved surface area = πrl
= 3.14 x 6 x 10m²
= 314100 x 6 x 10 m² = 1884 m²
Thus, area of the tarpaulin required to make the tent = 188.4 m²
Let the length of the tarpaulin be L m
Length x Breadth = 188.4
⇒ L x 3 = 188.4 ⇒ L = 188.43 = 62.8

The capacity of a cuboidal tank is 50000 litres of water. Find the breadth of the tank, if its length and depth are 2.5 m and 10 m, respectively.
Solution:
ira Length of the tank (l) = 2.5 m
Depth of the tank (h) = 10 m
Let breadth of the tank be b m.
∴ Volume (capacity) of the tank = l x b x h
= 2.5 x b x 10 m³
= 2510 x 10 x bm³
= 25bm³
But the capacity of the tank = 50000 litres
= 50 m³ [ ∵ 1000 litres = 1 m³ ]
∴ 25b = 50 ⇒ b = 5025 = 2
Thus, the breadth of the tank = 2 m

A village, having a population of 4000, requires 150 litres of water per head per day. It has a tank measuring 20 m x 15 m x 6 m. For how many days will the water of this tank last?
Solution:
fcWra Length of the tank (l) = 20 m
Breadth of the tank (b) = 15 m
Height of the tank (h) = 6m
∴ Volume of the tank = l x b x h
= 20 x 15 x 6 m³ = 1800 m³
Since, 1 m³ = 1000 litres
∴ Capacity of the tank = 1800 x 1000 litres = 1800000 litres
Since, 150 litres of water is required per head per day.
∴ Amount of water required by 4000 people per day = 150 x 4000 litres
Let the required number of days be x
∴ 4000 x 150 x x = 1800000
⇒ x = 18000004000×150 = 3
Thus, the required number of days is 3.

A solid cube of side 12 cm is cut into eight cubes of equal volume. What will be the side of the new cube? Also, find the ratio between their surface areas.
Solution:
Side of the given cube = 12 cm
Volume of the given cube = (side)³ = (12)³ cm³
Let the side of the new cube be n
∴ Volume of new cube = n³
⇒ Volume of 8 new cubes = 8n³
According to question,
8n³ = (12)³ = 12 x 12 x 12
⇒ n³ = 12×12×128 = 6 x 6 x 6
⇒ n³ = 6³
⇒ n = 6
Thus, the required side of the new cube is 6 cm.
Now, surface area of the given cube = 6 x (side)² = 6 x 12² cm² = 6 x 12 x 12 cm²
Surface area of new cube = 6 x 6² cm²
= 6 x 6 x 6 cm²
Now,

Thus, the required ratio = 4 : 1

The water flowing in a river can be considered in the form of a cuboid.

Length (l) = 2 km = 2000 m
Breadth (b) = 40 m,
depth (h) = 3 m
∴ Volume of water (volume of the cuboid so formed) = l x b x h
= 2000 x 40 x 3 m³
Now, volume of water flowing in 1 hr (60 minutes) = 2000 x 40 x 3 m³
Volume of water that will fall in 1 minute
= [2000 x 40 x 3] + 60 m³
= 4000m³

Solution:
Let the base radius of the cylindrical vessel be r cm.
∴ Circumference of the base = 2πr
⇒ 2πr = 132 [Circumference = 132 cm, (given)]
= 2 x 227 x r = 132
⇒ r = 132x72x22 cm = 21cm
Since, height of the vessel (h) = 25 cm
Volume of a vessel (h) = πr²h
= 227 x (21)² x 25cm³
= 227 x 21 x 21 x 25cm³
= 22 x 3 x 21 x 25 cm³
= 34650 cm³
∵ Capaoty of the vessel = Volume of the vsel

The inner diameter of a cylindrical wooden pipe is 24 cm and its outer diameter is 28 cm. The length of the pipe is 35 cm. Find the mass of the pipe, if 1 cm3 of wood has a mass of 0.6 g.
Solution:
Inner diameter of the cylindrical pipe = 24cm
⇒ Inrr radius of the pipe (r) = 242cm = 12cm
Outer diameter of the pipe = 28 cm
Outer radius of the pipe(R) = 14cm
Length of the pipe (h) = 35 cm
∴ Amount of wood in the pipe = Outer volume – Inner volume
= πR²h – πr²h
= πh (R + r) (R – r)
[∵ a2 – b2 = (a + b)(a – b)]
= 227 x 35 x (14+12) x (14 – 12)cm³
=22 x 5 x 26 x 2 cm³
Mass of wood in the pipe = (Mass of wood in 1 cm³ of wood) x (Volume of wood in the pipe)
= (0.6g) x (22 x 5 x 26 x 2)cm³
= 610 x 22 x 10 x 26 g = 3432 g
= 34321000 kg = 3.432kg [∵ 1000 g = 1 kg]

Volume = l x b x h = 5 x 4 x 15 cm³ = 300 cm³
∴ Capacity of the rectangular pack = 300 cm³

(ii) For cylindrical pack,
Base diameter = 7 cm
∴ Radius of the base (r) = 72 cm
Height (h) = 10 cm
∴ Volume = πr²h = 227 x (72)² x 10cm
= 227 x 72 x 72 x 10cm
= 11 x 7 x 5cm³ = 385cm³
