Mathematics NCERT Grade 9, Chapter 13: Surface Areas And Volumes- The chapter begins with recalling plane and solid figures. ​The chapter explains that how the relationship between length and breadth of the figure can give us area and inclusion of the concept of heights can provide us the volume of any particular given object.
The first section is about the surface area of a cuboid and a cube. This includes lateral surface area of a cuboid as well.
Exercise 13.1 is about the same consisting of lot of word problems.

The next topic is- Surface area of a right circular cylinder.
• The topic is also accounted for Curved Surface Area and Total Surface Area of Right Circular Cylinder.
Exercise 13.2 covers the questions based on the surface area of a cylinder.
Moving on to the next solid shape which is right circular cone is explained followed by the formulas for finding the Curved Surface Area and Total surface area of Right Circular Cone. Exercise 13.3 contains 8 questions based on the surface area of a cone.

The next shape is sphere and hemisphere.
• A sphere is a three-dimensional figure(solid figure), which is made up of all points in the space, which lie at a constant distance called the radius, from a fixed point called the centre of the sphere.
• A solid sphere when sliced exactly ‘through the middle’ with a plane that passes through its centre gets divided into two equal parts called the hemisphere.
Curved Surface Area and Total Surface Area of sphere and Hemisphere are discussed in the chapter.
Later, in this chapter volume will be discussed.
• If an object is solid, then the space occupied by such an object is measured and is termed the volume of the object.
Firstly, the Volume of the cuboid and Cube are discussed, then the volume of the cylinder is explained followed by the volume of a right circular cone.
Lastly, we will discuss the Volume of a Sphere and Hemisphere.
The chapter is filled with solved examples and exercises. It requires knowing the correct formulas and its application. Thus, practising the questions is the best way to master this chapter.
In the end summary of the chapter is discussed.

#### Question 1:

A plastic box 1.5 m long, 1.25 m wide and 65 cm deep, is to be made. It is to be 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 Rs 20.

It is given that, length (l) of box = 1.5 m

Breadth (b) of box = 1.25 m

Depth (h) of box = 0.65 m

(i) Box is to be open at top.

Area of sheet required

= 2lh + 2bh + lb

= [2 × 1.5 × 0.65 + 2 × 1.25 × 0.65 + 1.5 × 1.25] m2

= (1.95 + 1.625 + 1.875) m2 = 5.45 m2

(ii) Cost of sheet per m2 area = Rs 20

Cost of sheet of 5.45 m2 area = Rs (5.45 × 20)

= Rs 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 Rs 7.50 per m2.

It is given that

Length (l) of room = 5 m

Breadth (b) of room = 4 m

Height (h) of room = 3 m

It can be observed that four walls and the ceiling of the room are to be white-washed. The floor of the room is not to be white-washed.

Area to be white-washed = Area of walls + Area of ceiling of room

= 2lh + 2bh + lb

= [2 × 5 × 3 + 2 × 4 × 3 + 5 × 4] m2

= (30 + 24 + 20) m2

= 74 m2

Cost of white-washing per m2 area = Rs 7.50

Cost of white-washing 74 m2 area = Rs (74 × 7.50)

= Rs 555

#### Question 3:

The floor of a rectangular hall has a perimeter 250 m. If the cost of panting the four walls at the rate of Rs.10 per m2 is Rs.15000, find the height of the hall.

[Hint: Area of the four walls = Lateral surface area.]

Let length, breadth, and height of the rectangular hall be l m, b m, and h m respectively.

Area of four walls = 2lh + 2bh

= 2(l + b) h

Perimeter of the floor of hall = 2(l + b)

= 250 m

∴ Area of four walls = 2(l + b) h = 250h m2

Cost of painting per m2 area = Rs 10

Cost of painting 250h m2 area = Rs (250h × 10) = Rs 2500h

However, it is given that the cost of paining the walls is Rs 15000.

∴ 15000 = 2500h

h = 6

Therefore, the height of the hall is 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?

Total surface area of one brick = 2(lb + bh + lh)

= [2(22.5 ×10 + 10 × 7.5 + 22.5 × 7.5)] cm2

= 2(225 + 75 + 168.75) cm2

= (2 × 468.75) cm2

= 937.5 cm2

Let n bricks can be painted out by the paint of the container.

Area of n bricks = (n ×937.5) cm2 = 937.5n cm2

Area that can be painted by the paint of the container = 9.375 m2 = 93750 cm2

∴ 93750 = 937.5n

n = 100

Therefore, 100 bricks can be painted out by the paint of the container.

#### 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?

(i) Edge of cube = 10 cm

Length (l) of box = 12.5 cm

Breadth (b) of box = 10 cm

Height (h) of box = 8 cm

Lateral surface area of cubical box = 4(edge)2

= 4(10 cm)2

= 400 cm2

Lateral surface area of cuboidal box = 2[lh + bh]

= [2(12.5 × 8 + 10 × 8)] cm2

= (2 × 180) cm2

= 360 cm2

Clearly, the lateral surface area of the cubical box is greater than the lateral surface area of the cuboidal box.

Lateral surface area of cubical box − Lateral surface area of cuboidal box = 400 cm2 − 360 cm2 = 40 cm2

Therefore, the lateral surface area of the cubical box is greater than the lateral surface area of the cuboidal box by 40 cm2.

(ii) Total surface area of cubical box = 6(edge)2 = 6(10 cm)2 = 600 cm2

Total surface area of cuboidal box

= 2[lh + bh + lb]

= [2(12.5 × 8 + 10 × 8 + 12.5 × 10] cm2

= 610 cm2

Clearly, the total surface area of the cubical box is smaller than that of the cuboidal box.

Total surface area of cuboidal box − Total surface area of cubical box = 610 cm2 − 600 cm2 = 10 cm2

Therefore, the total surface area of the cubical box is smaller than that of the cuboidal box by 10 cm2.

#### 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?

(i) Length (l) of green house = 30 cm

Breadth (b) of green house = 25 cm

Height (h) of green house = 25 cm

Total surface area of green house

= 2[lb + lh + bh]

= [2(30 × 25 + 30 × 25 + 25 × 25)] cm2

= [2(750 + 750 + 625)] cm2

= (2 × 2125) cm2

= 4250 cm2

Therefore, the area of glass is 4250 cm2.

(ii)

It can be observed that tape is required along side AB, BC, CD, DA, EF, FG, GH, HE, AH, BE, DG, and CF.

Total length of tape = 4(l + b + h)

= [4(30 + 25 + 25)] cm

= 320 cm

Therefore, 320 cm tape is required for all the 12 edges.

#### 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 Rs 4 for 1000 cm2, find the cost of cardboard required for supplying 250 boxes of each kind.

Length (l1) of bigger box = 25 cm

Breadth (b1) of bigger box = 20 cm

Height (h1) of bigger box = 5 cm

Total surface area of bigger box = 2(lb + lh + bh)

= [2(25 × 20 + 25 × 5 + 20 × 5)] cm2

= [2(500 + 125 + 100)] cm2

= 1450 cm2

Extra area required for overlapping

= 72.5 cm2

While considering all overlaps, total surface area of 1 bigger box

= (1450 + 72.5) cm2 =1522.5 cm2

Area of cardboard sheet required for 250 such bigger boxes

= (1522.5 × 250) cm2 = 380625 cm2

Similarly, total surface area of smaller box = [2(15 ×12 + 15 × 5 + 12 × 5] cm2

= [2(180 + 75 + 60)] cm2

= (2 × 315) cm2

= 630 cm2

Therefore, extra area required for overlappingcm2

Total surface area of 1 smaller box while considering all overlaps

= (630 + 31.5) cm2 = 661.5 cm2

Area of cardboard sheet required for 250 smaller boxes = (250 × 661.5) cm2

= 165375 cm2

Total cardboard sheet required = (380625 + 165375) cm2

= 546000 cm2

Cost of 1000 cm2 cardboard sheet = Rs 4

Cost of 546000 cm2 cardboard sheet

Therefore, the cost of cardboard sheet required for 250 such boxes of each kind will be Rs 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?

Length (l) of shelter = 4 m

Breadth (b) of shelter = 3 m

Height (h) of shelter = 2.5 m

Tarpaulin will be required for the top and four wall sides of the shelter.

Area of Tarpaulin required = 2(lh + bh) + l b

= [2(4 × 2.5 + 3 × 2.5) + 4 × 3] m2

= [2(10 + 7.5) + 12] m2

= 47 m2

Therefore, 47 m2 tarpaulin will be required.

Height (h) cylindrical pillar = 3.5 m

Radius (r) of the circular end of pillar =

= 0.25 m

CSA of pillar = 2πrh

Cost of painting 1 m2 area = Rs 12.50

Cost of painting 5.5 m2 area = Rs (5.5 × 12.50)

= Rs 68.75

Therefore, the cost of painting the CSA of the pillar is Rs 68.75.

(ii) The cost of plastering this curved surface at the rate of Rs 40 per m2.

Inner radius (r) of circular well

Depth (h) of circular well = 10 m

Inner curved surface area = 2πrh

= (44 × 0.25 × 10) m2

= 110 m2

Therefore, the inner curved surface area of the circular well is 110 m2.

Cost of plastering 1 m2 area = Rs 40

Cost of plastering 110 m2 area = Rs (110 × 40)

= Rs 4400

Therefore, the cost of plastering the CSA of this well is Rs 4400.

#### Question 5:

What length of tarpaulin 3 m wide will be required to make conical tent of height 8 m and base radius 6 m? 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]

Height (h) of conical tent = 8 m

Radius (r) of base of tent = 6 m

Slant height (l) of tent =

CSA of conical tent = πrl

= (3.14 × 6 × 10) m2

= 188.4 m2

Let the length of tarpaulin sheet required be l.

As 20 cm will be wasted, therefore, the effective length will be (l − 0.2 m).

Breadth of tarpaulin = 3 m

Area of sheet = CSA of tent

[(l − 0.2 m) × 3] m = 188.4 m2

l − 0.2 m = 62.8 m

l = 63 m

Therefore, the length of the required tarpaulin sheet will be 63 m.

A bus stop is barricaded from the remaining part of the road, by using 50 hollow cones made of recycled cardboard. 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 Rs 12 per m2, what will be the cost of painting all these cones? (Use π = 3.14 and take= 1.02).

Radius (r) of cone = = 0.2 m

Height (h) of cone = 1 m

Slant height (l) of cone =

CSA of each cone = πrl

= (3.14 × 0.2 × 1.02) m2 = 0.64056 m2

CSA of 50 such cones = (50 × 0.64056) m2

= 32.028 m2

Cost of painting 1 m2 area = Rs 12

Cost of painting 32.028 m2 area = Rs (32.028 × 12)

= Rs 384.336

= Rs 384.34 (approximately)

Therefore, it will cost Rs 384.34 in painting 50 such hollow cones.

#### Question 8:

A dome of a building is in the form of a hemisphere. From inside, it was white-washed at the cost of Rs 498.96. If the cost of white-washing is Rs 2.00 per square meter, find the

(i) inside surface area of the dome,

(ii) volume of the air inside the dome.

(i) Cost of white-washing the dome from inside = Rs 498.96

Cost of white-washing 1 m2 area = Rs 2

Therefore, CSA of the inner side of dome =

= 249.48 m2

(ii) Let the inner radius of the hemispherical dome be r.

CSA of inner side of dome = 249.48 m2

r2 = 249.48 m2

r = 6.3 m

Volume of air inside the dome = Volume of hemispherical dome

= 523.908 m3

= 523.9 m3 (approximately)

Therefore, the volume of air inside the dome is 523.9 m3.

#### Question 1:

A wooden bookshelf has external dimensions as follows: Height = 110 cm, Depth = 25 cm, Breadth = 85 cm (see the given figure). The thickness of the plank is 5 cm everywhere. The external faces are to be polished and the inner faces are to be painted. If the rate of polishing is 20 paise per cm2 and the rate of painting is 10 paise per cm2, find the total expenses required for polishing and painting the surface of the bookshelf.

External height (l) of book self = 85 cm

External breadth (b) of book self = 25 cm

External height (h) of book self = 110 cm

External surface area of shelf while leaving out the front face of the shelf

= lh + 2 (lb + bh)

= [85 × 110 + 2 (85 × 25 + 25 × 110)] cm2

= (9350 + 9750) cm2

= 19100 cm2

Area of front face = [85 × 110 − 75 × 100 + 2 (75 × 5)] cm2

= 1850 + 750 cm2

= 2600 cm2

Area to be polished = (19100 + 2600) cm2 = 21700 cm2

Cost of polishing 1 cm2 area = Rs 0.20

Cost of polishing 21700 cm2 area Rs (21700 × 0.20) = Rs 4340

It can be observed that length (l), breadth (b), and height (h) of each row of the book shelf is 75 cm, 20 cm, and 30 cm respectively.

Area to be painted in 1 row = 2 (l + h) b + lh

= [2 (75 + 30) × 20 + 75 × 30] cm2

= (4200 + 2250) cm2

= 6450 cm2

Area to be painted in 3 rows = (3 × 6450) cm2 = 19350 cm2

Cost of painting 1 cm2 area = Rs 0.10

Cost of painting 19350 cm2 area = Rs (19350 × 0.1)

= Rs 1935

Total expense required for polishing and painting = Rs (4340 + 1935)

= Rs 6275

Therefore, it will cost Rs 6275 for polishing and painting the surface of the bookshelf.

#### Question 2:

The front compound wall of a house is decorated by wooden spheres of diameter 21 cm, placed on small supports as shown in the given figure. Eight such spheres are used for this purpose, and are to be painted silver. Each support is a cylinder of radius 1.5 cm and height 7 cm and is to be painted black. Find the cost of paint required if silver paint costs 25 paise per cm2 and black paint costs 5 paise per cm2.

Radius (r) of wooden sphere =

Surface area of wooden sphere = 4πr2

Radius (r1) of the circular end of cylindrical support = 1.5 cm

Height (h) of cylindrical support = 7 cm

CSA of cylindrical support = 2πrh

Area of the circular end of cylindrical support = πr2

= 7.07 cm2

Area to be painted silver = [8 × (1386 − 7.07)] cm2

= (8 × 1378.93) cm2 = 11031.44 cm2

Cost for painting with silver colour = Rs (11031.44 × 0.25) = Rs 2757.86

Area to be painted black = (8 × 66) cm2 = 528 cm2

Cost for painting with black colour = Rs (528 × 0.05) = Rs 26.40

Total cost in painting = Rs (2757.86 + 26.40)

= Rs 2784.26

Therefore, it will cost Rs 2784.26 in painting in such a way.
