Question 13 Marks
A circus tent is cylindrical to a height of $3$ meters and conical above it. If its diameter is $105$ m and the slant height of the conical portion is $53 m$ calculate the length of the canvas which is $5m$ wide to make the required tent.
Answer

Cylindrical area = 2πrh
$=2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times \frac{105}{2} \times 3 m ^2$
and conical area = πrl
$=\frac{22}{7} \times \frac{105}{2} \times 53 m ^2$
Area of canvas = $=2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times \frac{105}{2} \times 3+\frac{22}{7} \times \frac{105}{2} \times 53$
$= 15 \times 11( 2 \times 3 + 53)$
$= 15 \times 11 \times 59$
$= 165 \times 59 m^3$
Lenght of canvas = $\frac{165 \times 59}{5} m$
$= 33 \times 59 m$
$= 1947 m.$

Question 23 Marks
A conical tent is accommodate to $11$ persons each person must have $4$ sq. metre of the space on the ground and $20$ cubic metre of air to breath. Find the height of the cone.
Answer
Area of the base = $11 \times 4 = 44 m^2$
and Volume of the cone = $11 \times 20 = 220 m^3$
$\frac{1}{3} \times \pi R^2 h=220 m^3$
Area of the base $=\pi R^2$
$ \therefore \pi R^2=44$
$\therefore R^2=\frac{44}{22} \times 7$
$\therefore R^2=14$
$\therefore R=\sqrt{14} $
By equation (i) and (ii), we get
$\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times \sqrt{14} \times \sqrt{14} \times h=220$
$h =\frac{220 \times 3}{22 \times 2}$
$h =\frac{30}{2}=15 cm .$

Question 33 Marks
A vessel in the form of an inverted cone is filled with water to the brim: Its height is $20\ cm$ and the diameter is $16.8\ cm.$ Two equal solid cones are dropped in it so that they are fully submerged. As a result, one-third of the water in the original cone overflows. What is the volume of each of the solid cones submerged?
Answer

Height $= 20\ cm,$ diameter $= 16.8\ cm$ or radius = $\frac{16.8}{2}=8.4\ cm$
Volume of water in bigger cone = $\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h$
$=\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 8.4 \times 8.4 \times 20  $
$= 1478.4\ cm^3$
Volume of water overflows when two equal cone is submerged $=\frac{1}{3} \times 1478.4 = 492.8\ cm^3$
$\therefore$ Volume of two equal cones $= 492.8$
So volume of each cone = $\frac{1}{2} \times 492.8=246.4 cm ^3$.

Question 43 Marks
The radius of two right circular cylinder are in the ratio of $2 : 3$ and their heights are in the ratio of $5: 4$ calculate the ratio of their curved surface areas and also the ratio of their volumes.
Answer
Let the radii of two cylinders be 2r and 3r respectively and their heights be 5h and 4h respectively.
Let $S_1$ and $S_2$ be Curved Surface Area of the two cylinders and $V_1$ and $V_2$ be their volumes.
Then, $S_1$ = Curved surface area of the cylinders of height 5h and radius 2r.
⇒ 2π x 2r x 5h = 20πrh sq. units.
$S_2$ = Curved surface area of the cylinders of height 4h and radius 3r.
⇒ 2π x 3r x 4h = 24πrh sq. units.
$\frac{S_1}{S_2}=\frac{20 \pi r h}{24 \pi r h}=\frac{5}{6}$
$S_1: S_2 = 5: 6$
$V_1$ = Volume of cylinder of height 5h and radius 2r
$= \pi \times (2r)^2 \times 5h = 20\pi r^2h$ cubic units.
$V_2$ = Volume of the cylinder of height 4h and radius 3r.
$= \pi \times (3r)^2 \times 4h = 36\pi r^2h$ cubic units.
$\therefore \frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{20 \pi r^2 h}{36 \pi r^2 h}=\frac{5}{6}$
$V_1: V_2 = 5: 9$.

Question 53 Marks
A metallic cylinder has a radius of 3 cm and a height of 5 cm. It is made of metal A. To reduce its weight, a conical hole is drilled in the cylinder, as shown and it is completely filled with a lighter metal B. The conical hole has a radius of $\frac{3}{2}$ cm and its depth is $\frac{8}{9}$ cm. Calculate the ratio of the volume of the metal A to the volume of metal B in the solid.
Answer

Volume of metal $A =$ Volume of the cylinder $-$ Volume of the cone
$=\pi(3)^2 x 5-\frac{1}{3} \pi\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^2 \frac{8}{9}$
$=\pi\left(45-\frac{2}{3}\right)$
$=\frac{133}{3} \pi cm ^3$
Volume of metal $B =$ Volume of the conical cavity
$=\frac{1}{3} \times\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^2 \cdot \frac{8}{9}=\frac{2}{3} \pi$
Hence, ratio of the volume of the metal A to the volume of the metal B.
$=\frac{\frac{133}{3} \pi}{\frac{2}{3} \pi}=\frac{133}{2}$
$=66.5: 1 .$

Question 103 Marks
In the adjoining figure, the crescent is formed by two circles which touch at the point A. $O$ is the centre of bigger circle. If $CB = 9 cm$ and $DE = 5 cm$, find the area of the shaded portion.

Answer
Let R and r be the radii of two circles. Then, $2(R - r) = 9$.
Join AD and CD,
ΔAOB ∼ ΔDOC
$\therefore \frac{ OD }{ OC }=\frac{ OA }{ OD }$
$\Rightarrow OD^2 = OA.OC$
$\Rightarrow (R - 5)^2 = R(R - 9)$
$\Rightarrow R^2 + 25 - 10R = R^2 - 9R$
$\therefore R = 25$
So, $2(25 - r) = 9$
$\therefore r = 20.5 cm$
Area of the shaded portion $= \pi R^2 - \pi r^2$
$= \pi [ (25)^2 - (20.5)^2 ] cm^2$
$=\frac{22}{7}[625-420.25] cm ^2$

Question 183 Marks
The circumference of the base of a $10 m$ high conical tent is $44$ metres. Calculate the length of canvas used in making the tent if the width of the canvas is $2m$. (Take $\pi = 22/7$)
Answer
Let r m be the radius of the base, h m be the height and l m be the slant height of the cone. Then,
Circumference = 44 metres
$\Rightarrow 2 \pi r=44$
$\Rightarrow 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times r=44$
$\Rightarrow r=7 \text { metres }$
It is given that h = 10 metres
$\therefore l^2 = r^2 + h^2$
$\Rightarrow \mid=\sqrt{r^2+h^2}$
$\mid=\sqrt{49+100}=\sqrt{149}=12.2 m $
Now, Surface area of the tent = πrl m2
$=\frac{22}{7} \times 7 \times 12.2 m ^2$
$=268.4 m ^2$
∴ Area of the canvas used = $268.4 m^2$​​​​​​​
It is given that the width of the canvas is 2 m.
∴ Length of the canvas used = $\frac{\text { Area }}{\text { Width }}$
$=\frac{268.4}{2}$
= 134.2 metres

How many spherical bullets can be made out of a solid cube of lead whose edge measures $44\ cm,$ each bullet being $4\ cm$ in diameter?
Answer
Let the total number of bullets be $x.$
Radius of a spherical bullet $=\frac{4}{2}=2 cm$
Now,
Volume of a spherical bullet = $\frac{4}{3} \pi \times(2)^3=\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 8$
$\therefore$ Volume of x spherical bullets = $\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 8 \times x cm ^3$
Volume of the solid cube $= (44)^3\ cm^3$
Clearly,
Volume of x spherical bullets $=$ volume of the cube
$\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 8 \times x=44 \times 44 \times 44$
$x=\frac{44 \times 44 \times 44 \times 7 \times 3}{4 \times 22 \times 8}$
