Chapter 12. Areas Related to Circles

1. Diameter of the circle = side of the square.

5. Area of the shaded region= Sum of the areas of two smaller semicircles+ area of
the triangle-area of the larger semi circle.

Chapter 13. Surface Areas and Volumes

3. Circumference of the semicircle= circumference of the base of the cone.

6. Assume the radius as r and slant height as l; Substitute the values of C and V in the
equation in terms of r, h and l.
7. Volume of water flowing through the pipe per unit time = area of its
cross section ×speed of water.
surface area of the small cone 1
8. ∆AOD~∆APB. =
surface area of the l arg e cone 9

9. Mass=Volume×density; Ratio of volumes of two spheres=ratio of their mass.

10. Number of turns=height of the cylinder÷diameter of the wire. Length of the
wire=No. of turns ×Circumference of the base of the cylinder.
11. Area of the canvas = CSA of the cone + CSA of the cylinder.
12.Apply the formula of volume of the frustum of a cone to get the height of the
bucket. Area of the metal sheet= CSA of the bucket + area of the base.
