Explanation of Concept Key Definitions/ Formulas
Mensuration deals with length, area and volume of 1) Circle:
different kinds of shape- both plane and solid.
a)Circumference
The area of a plane figure is a measure of the amount of = 𝜋𝑑 = 2𝜋𝑟
space inside it.
b) Area= 𝜋𝑟 2
Examples:
1) Find the area of the ring between two concentric circles 2) Triangle:
whose circumferences are 77cm. and 55cm. a)Area =

Solution: 𝑏𝑎𝑠𝑒 × ℎ𝑒𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡

𝑎𝑐 sin 𝐵 = 2 𝑎𝑏 sin 𝐶
c) Area=
√𝑠(𝑠 − 𝑎)(𝑠 − 𝑏)(𝑠 − 𝑐)
Circumference of bigger circle = 2𝜋𝑟1=77

Circumference of smaller circle = 2𝜋𝑟2 =55

𝑟2 =
2𝜋
Shaded area = 𝜋( 𝑟1 )2 − 𝜋( 𝑟2 )2

= 231 sq.cm
⇒ Area = 168.56cm2 .
∴ Area = √𝑠 (𝑠 − 𝑎) (𝑠 − 𝑏) (𝑠 − 𝑐)
by Heron’s formula
∴ Area = √135
Solved word Problem ⇒ Area= 11.62 cm2.
