    Surface Area, Volume and Capacity

    Exercise
    Question 1.
    Find the volume and the total surface area of a cuboid, whose:
    (i) Length = 15cm, breadth = 10cm and height = 8cm.
    Solution:-
    We know that

    (ii) l = 3.5m, b = 2.6m and h = 90cm,


    Solution:-

    Question 2.

    Surface Area, Volume and Capacity

    (ii) The volume of a cuboid is 7.68 m3. If its length = 3.2m and height =1.0m; find its breadth.
    Solution:-

    Volume of a cuboid =7.68 m3


    Length of a cuboid =3.2 m
    Height of a cuboid =1.0 m
    Here
    Length x Breadth x Height = Volume of a cuboid
    Substituting the values
    3.2 × Breadth × 1.0=7.68
    By further calculation

    (iii) The breadth and height of a rectangular solid are 1.20 m and 80 cm respectively. If the volume of the
    cuboid is 1.92 m3; find its length.
    Solution:-

    Volume of a rectangular solid =1.92 m3


    Breadth of a rectangular solid = 1.20 m
    ICSE Class 8 Maths Selina Solutions Chapter 21
    Surface Area, Volume and Capacity

    Height of a rectangular solid =80 cm=0.8 m


    Here
    Length × Breadth × Height = Volume of a rectangular solid (cubical)
    Substituting the values
    Length × 1.20 × 0.8 = 1.92
    By further calculation
    Length × 0.96 = 1.92

    Question 3.

    The length, breadth and height of a cuboid are in the ratio 5:3:2. If its volume is 240cm3, find its
    dimensions. (Dimensions means: its length, breadth and height). Also find the total surface area of
    the cuboid.
    Solution:-
    Consider length of the given cuboid =5x
    Breadth of the given cuboid =3x
    Height of the given cuboid =2x
    We know that

    Volume of the given cuboid = Length × Breadth ×height


    Substituting the values

    =5x×3x×2x=30x3
    It is given that

    Volume =240cm3
    Substituting the values

    30x3=240cm3
    By further calculation
    ICSE Class 8 Maths Selina Solutions Chapter 21
    Surface Area, Volume and Capacity

    Here

    Length of the given cube =5x=5×2=10cm


    Breadth of the given cube =3x=3×2=6cm
    Height of the given cube =2x=2×2=4cm
    We know that

    Total surface area of the given cuboid =2(1×b+b×h+h×1)


    Substituting the values

    =2(10×6+6×4+4×10)=2(60+24+40)=2×124=248cm2
    Question 4.

    The length, breadth and height of a cuboid are in the ratio 6:5:3. If its total surface area is 504 c m2; find its
    dimensions. Also, find the volume of the cuboid.
    Solution:-
    Consider length of the cuboid =6x
    Breadth of the cuboid =5x
    Height of the cuboid =3x
    We know that

    Total surface area of the given cuboid =2(1×b+b×h+h×l)


    Substituting the values
    ICSE Class 8 Maths Selina Solutions Chapter 21
    Surface Area, Volume and Capacity

    x=2 cm
    Here

    Length of the cuboid =6x=6×2=12cm


    Breadth of the cuboid =5x=5×2=10cm
    Height of the cuboid =3x=3×2=6cm
    We get

    Volume of the cuboid =l×b×h=12×10×6=720cm3
