Mensuration - Definition
A branch of mathematics which talks about the length, volume or area of
different geometric shapes is called Mensuration. These shapes exist in 2 dimension or 3
dimensions. Let’s learn the difference between the two.
Difference Between 2D and 3D shapes
2D Shape 3D Shape
These shapes have no depth or height. These are also called as solid shapes and
unlike 2D they have both height and depth.
These shapes have only 2-D length and These are called Three dimensional as they
breadth. have depth, breadth and length.
We can measure their area and Perimeter. We can measure their volume, CSA, LSA or
TSA.
STANDARD UMTS OF VOLUME
1 dm = 10 cm
1 dm3 or litre = 1 dm × 1 dm × 1 dm = (10 × 10 × 10) cm3 = 1000 cm3
1 cm = 10 mm
1m =100 cm
1m = (100 × 100 × 100) cm3 = 1000000 cm3

(ii) Total surface area of cone = Curved surface area of cone + Area of the circular base
= πrl + πr2
= πr (r + l) sq. units.
(iii) Volume of a cone (where ‘r’ r is the radius and ‘h’ is the height of cone).
Sphere and hemisphere
Sphere: The set of all the points in space which are equidistant from a fixed point is
called a sphere.
Curve surface area of sphere = 4𝜋𝑟 2

Volume of sphere 𝑉 = 3 𝜋𝑟3
Hemisphere: A lane through the centre of a sphere divides the sphere into two equal
parts and each part is called a hemisphere.
(i) Curved surface area of hemisphere = 2πr2
(ii) Total surface area of hemisphere 2πr2 + πr2 = 3πr2
