1. 2. 3.
𝑆𝐴 = 2𝑙𝑤 + 2𝑙ℎ + +2𝑤ℎ Find the hypotenuse, 𝑆𝐴 = 𝑎2 + 2𝑎𝑙
= 2(4)8 + 2(4)(3) + 2(8)(3) 𝑐 2 = 𝑎2 + 𝑏 2 = 32 + 42 = 72 + 2(7)(9)
= 64 + 24 + 48 𝑐 2 = 25 = 49 + 126
= 136 𝑐=5 = 175
Now,
𝑆𝐴 = 𝑏ℎ + 𝐿(𝑠1 + 𝑠2 + ℎ)
= 4(3) + 2(5 + 4 + 3)
= 12 + 24
= 36
4. 5. 6.
Find the slant height,
𝑆𝐴 = 2𝜋𝑟ℎ + 2𝜋𝑟 2 𝑠 2 = 𝑎2 + 𝑏 2 = 102 + 62 𝑆𝐴 = 4𝜋𝑟 2
= 2𝜋(7)(32.5) + 2𝜋(7)2 𝑠 2 = 136 = 4𝜋(42.5)2
= 455𝜋 + 98𝜋 𝑠 = 2√34 = 7225𝜋
= 1737.3007 ~ 1737 = 22698.0069 ~ 22698
𝑆𝐴 = 𝜋𝑟 2 + 𝜋𝑟𝑠
= 𝜋(6)2 + 𝜋(6)(2√34)
= 36𝜋 + 12√34 𝜋
= (36 + 12√34 )𝜋
= 332.9190 ~ 333
B. Directions: Read and answer each problem carefully. Show your complete solution.
1. The Marina Towers in Chicago are cylindrical shaped buildings that are 586 feet tall. There is
a 35-foot-diameter cylindrical core in the center of each tower. If the core extends 40 feet
above the roof of the tower, find the volume of the core.

2. A swimming pool is 50 meters long and 25 meters wide. The adjustable bottom of the pool
can be up to 3 meters deep for the competition and as shallow as 0.3 meter deep for the
recreation. The pool was filled to the recreation level, and then the floor was lowered to the
competition level. If the volume of a liter of water is 0.001 cubic meter, how much water had
to be added to fill the pool?
𝑉𝑒𝑚𝑝𝑡𝑦 𝑠𝑝𝑎𝑐𝑒 = 𝑉𝑐𝑦𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑟 − 3𝑉𝑆𝑝ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒
= (50 𝑚)(25 𝑚)(3 𝑚) − (50 𝑚)(25 𝑚)(0.3 𝑚)
= 3750 𝑚3 − 375 𝑚3
= 3375 𝑚3
= 3375000 𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑠
3. Travis is making a plaster model of the Food Guide Pyramid for a class presentation. The
model is a square pyramid with a base edge of 12 inches and a height of 15 inches. Find the
volume of plaster need to make the model.

4. Find the volume of the empty space in a cylindrical tube of three tennis balls. The
diameter of each ball is 2.5 inches. The cylinder is 2.5 inches in diameter and is 7.5 inches
tall.

𝑉𝑒𝑚𝑝𝑡𝑦 𝑠𝑝𝑎𝑐𝑒 = 𝑉𝑐𝑦𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑟 − 3𝑉𝑆𝑝ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 = 𝜋𝑟 2 ℎ − 3 ( 𝜋𝑟 3 ) = 𝜋𝑟 2 ℎ − 4𝜋𝑟 3

= 𝜋(1.25 𝑖𝑛)2 (7.5 𝑖𝑛) − 4𝜋(1.25 𝑖𝑛)3
= 11.71875𝜋 𝑖𝑛3 − 7.8125𝜋 𝑖𝑛3
= 3.90625𝜋 𝑖𝑛3
= 12.2718 𝑖𝑛3 ~ 13 𝑖𝑛3
5. Engineering students designed an enlarged external fuel tank
for a space shuttle as part of an assignment (See Figure 1). What
is the volume of the entire fuel tank to the nearest cubic meter?
