Exercise 16.1
Problem 7.

1)Craft teacher of a school taught the students to prepare cylindrical pen holders out of card board. In a class of strength 42, if each child prepared a pen holder of radius 5 cm and height 14 cm, how much cardboard was consumed?

• Interpretation;

Case 1)Pen stand which is open on top and closed base. Then we have to calculate Curved surface area of cylinder and area of one circle.

• skills

visualising the cylinder into rectangle and circle

• Assumptions:

Concepts used

1. basics of circles -radius
2. area of circles
3. addition and multiplication of fractions
4. unit of area

knowledge to be used

1. knowledge of Polygons -Rectangles
2. knowledge of measurements
3. Formula of CSA of cylinder
4. substitution
5. computing
6. Value of Л

Concepts to be taught

1. basics of circles -radius
2. area of circles
3. relation between circumference of circle and length of rectangle in a cylinder
4. addition and multiplication of fractions
5. unit of area

solution: r=5cm, h=14cm, Л=${\frac {22}{7}}$
Curved surface area of cylinder and area of one circle= CSA of cylinder+area of circle
=Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle 2Лrh+Лr^2}
=$2X{\frac {22}{7}}X5X14+{\frac {22}{7}}X{5^{2}}$
=440+78.5
=518.5cm

Cardboard required to prepare 42 penstands= 42X518.5
=$21777{cm^{2}}$
=$2.1777{m^{2}}$

Case 2:- Hollow pen stand: Pen stand which is open both the sides i.e., top and base. Then we have to calculate Curved surface area of cylinder.
Case 3:-Pen stand which is closed both the sides i.e., top and base. Then we have to calculate total surface area of cylinder.

Activity Making use of 2200 cmcardboard sheet how many hollow cylinders of radius 7 cm and height 5 cm can be prepared.

• Statement of the problem:What is the weight of a solid cone whose base is of diameter 14 cm and vertical height 51cm, if the material of which it is made weighs 10gm/
• Interpretation;

Calculating the weight of solid cone by calculating its volume. density of a material is given. it is related to volume and weight.

• Assumptions:

1. basics of circles -radius
2. area of circles
3. multiplication of fractions
4. unit of volume,density and weight
5. density

knowledge to be used

1. radius=diameter/2
2. density=mass/volume
3. knowledge of measurements
4. Formula of volume of cones
5. substitution
6. computing
7. Value of Л

Concepts to be taught

1. density
2. units conversion

solution:
d=14cm r=7cm, h=51cm
Volume of cone= =Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}{Л}{r^2}h}

=${\frac {1}{3}}{X}{\frac {22}{7}}{X}{7^{2}}{X}51$
=$2618{cm^{3}}$
To calculate weight of the solid cone we have to use density of the given material.
density=$10gm/{cm^{3}}$
=${\frac {10Kg}{1000cm^{3}}}$
Weight of solid cone=volumeXdensity =$2618{cm^{3}}{X}{\frac {10Kg}{1000cm^{3}}}$
=26.18Kg

2. To imagine a cone having Hemispherical top

Algorthem
Part 1:
To derive the volume of a cone with hemispherical top

1. volume of a cone with hemispherical top
   =Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle {\frac{1}{3}}л{r^2}h+{\frac{2}{3}}л{r^3}}
   

=Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle {\frac{1}{3}}л4r +{\frac{2}{3}}л{r^3}} (on simplification)
=Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle 2л{r^3}}

Part 2 :
To calculate the volume of 10 cone with hemispherical top
=Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle 10X2л{r^3}}
=Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle 20л{r^3}}
To calculate the volume of ice-cream in cylindrical container

=540лc

Part 3 :
To apply condition given in the problem
volume of 10 cone with hemispherical top= volume of cylindrical container
Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle 20л{r^3}} =540л
${r^{3}}$=Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle {\frac{540л}{20л}}}
=27
r=3cm
Hence the radius of cream cones=3cm
