Surface Area of Kerala Question 5.
Can we make a square pyramid with the lateral surface area equal to the base area?
Answer:
Curved surface area = 2al
Area of base = a2
a2=2al
a = 21 ⇒ 1 = a/2
For making a square pyramid first we must determine its base, one side of the lateral will be the base. Other two sides make half of base by reducing the angle. That is angle at apex will be less than 90°.

a. If r is the radius of the sphere, then its volume = \(\frac { 4 }{ 3 }\) πr³ (1)
If h is the height of the cone, then its volume = \(\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}\)
h = 4r (1)
Height of pyramid is four times the radius of sphere.
Surface area of the sphere = 4πr²
Slant height of the cone = \(\sqrt{(4 r)^{2}+r^{2}}=\sqrt{17 r^{2}}=\sqrt{17} r\) (1)
Surface area of the cone = \(\pi r^{2}+\pi r \sqrt{17} r=\pi r^{2}(1+\sqrt{17})\)
b. .Surface area of the cone is greater (1)

The circular plate of radius 12cm is cut out into six sectors having same size. Calculate the slant height and radius of circular cone used to make one sector.
Answer:
slant height = 12cm
centre angle = \(\frac { 360 }{ 60 }\) = 60
radius of square pyramid = 12 × \(\frac { 60 }{ 360 }\) = 2 cm

Radius and slant height of a solid right circular cone are 35cm and 37 cm respectively. Find the curved surface area and total surface area of the cone.
Answer:
r= 35 cm
l = 37 cm
CSA = πrI = π(35 x 37)=4070 cm²
TSA = πr (1 + r )
\(=\frac{22}{7} \times 35 \times(37+35)=7920 \mathrm{cm}^{2}\)

Surface area of a wooden sphere is 40 cm2. It is cut into two identical hemispheres. Find
a. The area of the plane surface of one of the hemispheres,
b. Its surface area.
Answer:
a. Surface area of the sphere = 4 πr²
Here, 4 πr² = 40cm²
πr² = 10cm²
∴ Area of plane surface = πr² = 10cm²
b. Surface area of one piece (hemisphere)
= 3 πr² = 3 x 10 = 30cm²

A toy in the shape of a square pyramid has base edge 16 cm and slant height 10 cm. 500 of these are to be painted and the cost is 80 rupees per square meter. What would be the total cost?
Answer:
Surface area = Curved surface area + base area
4 × 1/2 × 16 × 10+ 162 = 320 + 256 = 576cm
Total surface area of 500 square prism is = 500 × 576 = 288000 cm²

The base radius of a circular cone is 9cm and its height is 12cm. What is the radius and central angle of die sector used to make it?
Answer:
base radius r =9 cm
height h =12cm
slant height l = \(\begin{array}{l}{=\sqrt{12^{2}+9^{2}}=\sqrt{144+81}} \\ {=\sqrt{225}=15 \mathrm{cm}}\end{array}\)
radius of the sector = 15cm
centre angle of sector = 360 × \(\frac { 9 }{ 15 }\) = 216°

The central angle of a sector is 120°. What is the ratio of radius and slant height of a circular cone made by it? What is the radius and slant height of a cone if its curved surface area is 108 π cm².
Answer:
The ratio of radius and slant height = \(\frac { 120 }{ 360 }\) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 }\) = 1 : 3
curved surface area (πrl) =108π
rl=108; r × 3 r = 108
3 × r² = 108; r² = 36
radius (r) = 6 cm; slant height (l) = 3r = 3 × 6 = 18cm

For constructing a square pyramid, Rabiya cut of four triangles and a square. Figure given below shows the measures of these triangles and square. Can you make a square pyramid by using these measures? Explain the reason.

Answer:
Base edge = 42 cm
Slant edge = 29 cm
Slant height = \(\sqrt{29^{2}-\left(\frac{42}{2}\right)^{2}}=\sqrt{29^{2}-21^{2}}\)
\(\sqrt{841-441}=\sqrt{400}=20 \mathrm{cm}\)
Slant height is less than the half of the base edge 21cm so not possible for making a square pyramid
