SURFACE AREA AND VOLUME OF SOLID SHAPE
EXAMPLE
The base radius and height of a right circular cone is 7 cm and 24 cm. Find its curved surface area, total surface area and volume.
SOLUTION:
r = 7 cm and h = 24 cm. So, slant height l = 22
Curved surface area = πrl = 7 /22 × 7 X 24 cm2 = 550 cm2
Total surface area = πrl + π = (550 + 7/ 22 × 49) cm2 = (550 + 154) cm2 = 704 c
Volume = 1/3 π h = 1/3 × 22/7 × 49 × 24 cm3 = 1232 c
EXAMPLE
A conical tent is 6 m high and its base radius is 8 m. Find the cost of the canvas required to make the tent at the rate of ` 120 per m2 (Use π = 3.14)
Solution:
Let the slant height of the tent be x metres.
By Pythagoras theorem,
=
X = =
X = 10m.
Thus, slant height of the tent is 10 m.
Curved surface area = πrl = 3.14 × 8 × 10 cm2 = 251.2 m2
The material required = 251.2 x 120 = 30144
The measure of the space region enclosed by a solid figure is called its volume. •

WEEK 2
MENSURATION: VOLUMES OF CONES AND PYRAMIDS
FRUSTUM
A conical frustum is a truncated cone. This solid geometrical shape is obtained by slicing the top off of a cone leaving a circular top. The resulting shape resembles a cylinder, except the bottom is wider than the top.
You can compute the volume and surface area of a conical frustum from its height, bottom radius, and top radius. The calculator below will compute the surface area and volume if you input values for the height and radii. You can also apply the formulas described below.
VOLUME OF A CONICAL FRUSTUM
Call the height of the frustum H, the top radius A, and the bottom radius B. The volume of the solid is given by the equation
Volume = (���)H( + AB + ).
Note: ��� is the mathematical constant 3.14159265358…
SURFACE AREA OF A CONICAL FRUSTUM
The surface area formula excluding both bases is
Surface Area = (A + B[(B-A + ].
The formula for its total surface area (including the bases) is
Surface Area = (A + B[(B-A + ] + ( + )
Example
Suppose a conical frustum is 20 cm tall with a top radius of 5 cm and a bottom radius of 10 cm. So we have H = 20, A = 5, and B = 10. Find the volume?
Volume = (���)(20)(52 + (5)(10) + 102) = 3,665
The surface area (excluding the bases) is
= (5+10)sqrt((10-5)2 + 202) = 971 cm2
PYRAMIDS
When we think of pyramids we think of the Great Pyramids of Egypt.
They are actually Square Pyramids, because their base is a Square.
Parts of a Pyramid
A pyramid is made by connecting a base to an apex
Types of Pyramids
There are many types of Pyramids, and they are named after the shape of their base.

Volume Of A Pyramid
The Volume of a Pyramid
- 1/3 × [Base Area] × Height
The Surface Area of a Pyramid
When all side faces are the same:
- [Base Area] + 1/2 × Perimeter × [Slant Length]
When side faces are different:
- [Base Area] + [Lateral Area]
Notes: The Surface Area has two parts: the area of the base (the Base Area), and the area of the side faces (the Lateral Area).
For Base Area :
It depends on the shape, there are different formulas for triangle, square, etc.
For Lateral Area :
When all the side faces are the same:
- Multiply the perimeter by the “slant length” and divide by 2. This is because the side faces are always triangles and the triangle formula is “base times height divided by 2”
But when the side faces are different (such as an “irregular” pyramid) we must add up the area of each triangle to find the total lateral area.
EXAMPLE
The diagram below shows a pyramid whose base is a regular pentagon of area 42 cm2 and whose height is 7 cm
What is the volume of the pyramid?
SOLUTION
Volume = x base area x height = X 42X7CM = C = 98.
EXAMPLE
The diagram shows a square-based pyramid with base lengths 6 in and height 8 in
What is the volume of the pyramid?
SOLUTION
Volume = x square base area x height.
= x X 8IN
= 12 X 8IN = 96.
The diagram shows a rectangular-based pyramid with base length 15 cm and width 8cm. The height of the pyramid is 20 cm
What is the volume of the pyramid?
SOLUTION
VOLUME = X area of rectangle x height = x 15cm x 8cm x 20cm = 5cm x 8cm x 20cm = 800c.
SURFACE AREA OF A PYAMID
EXAMPLE
The diagram shows a rectangular-based pyramid with base length 15 cm and width 8cm. The height of the pyramid is 20 cm
What is the volume of the pyramid?
SOLUTION
We will use the formula
Surface Area of a Pyramid = 1/2 × Perimeter × [Side Length] + [Base Area]
First find the Perimeter:
Perimeter = 4 × 10 in = 40 in
Now find the Base Area:
Base Area = 10 in × 10 in = 100 in2
Next find the side length:
If V is the vertex of the pyramid, O is the center point of the base ABCD and M is the midpoint of AB, then triangle VOM is a right triangle with base 5 in and height 12 in
Therefore we can use Pythagoras’ Theorem in triangle VOM:
l 2 = 52 + 122 = 25 + 144 = 169
⇒ l = √169 = 13
Now substitute into the formula
Surface Area of a Pyramid = 1/2 × Perimeter × [Side Length] + [Base Area]
= 1/2 × 40 in × [13 in] + [100 in2]
= 260 in2 + 100 in2= 360.
EXAMPLE
The diagram shows a pyramid with vertex V and a rectangular base ABCD. M is the midpoint of AB, N is the midpoint of BC and O is the point at the center of the base.
AB = 10 ft
BC = 18 ft
VO = 12 ft
VM = 15 ft
VN = 13 ft
What is the total surface area of the pyramid?
Solution
The surface area consists of one rectangle (ABCD) and four triangles (VAB, VBC, VCD and VDA)
Area of the base ABCD = 18 ft × 10 ft = 180 ft2
Area of triangle VAB = ½ × 10 ft × 15 ft = 75 ft2
Area of triangle VBC = ½ × 18 ft × 13 ft = 117 ft2
Area of triangle VCD = ½ × 10 ft × 15 ft = 75 ft2
Area of triangle VDA = ½ × 18 ft × 13 ft = 117 ft2
Therefore total surface area
= 180 ft2 + 75 ft2 + 117 ft2 + 75 ft2 + 117 ft2
= 564 ft2

PARALLELOGRAM
Properties of Parallelograms: Sides and Angles
A parallelogram is a type of quadrilateral whose pairs of opposite sides are parallel.
Quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram because AB?DC and AD?BC.
Although the defining characteristics of parallelograms are their pairs of parallel opposite sides, there are other ways we can determine whether a quadrilateral is a parallelogram. We will use these properties in our two-column geometric proofs to help us deduce helpful information.
If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then.
(1) its opposite sides are congruent,
(2) its opposite angles are congruent, and
(2) its consecutive angles are supplementary.
Another important property worth noticing about parallelograms is that if one angle of the parallelogram is a right angle, then they all are right angles. Why is this property true? Let’s examine this situation closely. Consider the figure below.
Given that ?J is a right angle, we can also determine that ?L is a right angle since the opposite sides of parallelograms are congruent. Together, the sum of the measure of those angles is 180 because
We also know that the remaining angles must be congruent because they are also opposite angles. By the Polygon Interior Angles Sum Theorem, we know that all quadrilaterals have angle measures that add up to 360. Since ?J and ?L sum up to 180, we know that the sum of ?K and ?M will also be 180: Since ?K and ?M are congruent, we can define their measures with the same variable, x. So we have
Therefore, we know that ?K and ?M are both right angles. Our final illustration is shown below.

(a)Calculate the median of the distribution
(b)Calculate the mode of the distribution
(c)Find the range of the distribution.
SOLUTION
MEDIAN = + x c
= = 20 , C = CLASS WIDTH , = LOWER CLASS BOUNDARY OF THE MEDIAN CLASS
MARKS FREQUENCY CUMULATIVE FREQUENCY CLASS BOUNDARY
0 – 9 4 4 -0.5 – 9.5
10 – 19 5 4+5 = 9 9.5 – 19.5
20 – 29 6 9+6 = 15 19.5 – 29.5
30 – 39 12 15+12 = 27 29.5 – 39.5
40 – 49 8 39.5 – 49.5
50 – 59 5 49.5 – 59.5
MEDIAN = 29.5 + X 10 = 29.5 + X 10 = 29.5 + 4.17
MEDIAN = 33.67
MODE = + x c
F = modal class , = frequency before the modal class , = frequency after the modal class and c = class width.
MODE = 29.5 + x 10 = 29.5 + x 10 = 29.5 + x 10
Mode = 29.5 + 4 = 33.5
RANGE
Range = highest value – lowest value.
Range = 59 – 0 = 59.

CUMMULATIVE FREQUENCY CURVE (OGIVE)
From the diagram above, find the following:
(a) Number of children who celebrated their birth day.
(b)The probability of children of 30 people
(c)The number of people with probability 0.2
(d)The number of people with probability of either 0.1 or 0.9.
SOLUTION
(a)From the graph above, the number of children that celebrated birth day party is 10 + 20 + 30 + 40 + 50 + 60 = 210 children.
(b) The probability of children of 30 people = 0.7
(c)The number of people with probability of 0.2 = 15 people
(d)The number of people with probability of either 0.1 or 0.9 = 10 + 40 = 50 people.

WEEK 11
MEAN DEVIATION, VARIANCE, AND STANDARD DEVIATION OF GROUPED DATA .
THE MEAN ABSOLUTE DEVIATION: is the average distance between each data value and the mean or the average of absolute differences expressed without plus or minus sign between each value in a set of given values and the average of all values of that set.
VARIANCE: is defined as the arithmetic mean of the square of the deviation from the mean or is the mean squared deviation
STANDARD DEVIATION: Is the measure of how far typical values tend to be from the mean or is the square root of variance
GROUPED DATA: is a statistical term used in data analysis. A raw dataset can be organized by constructing a table showing the frequency distribution of the variables whose values are given in the raw dataset. Such a frequency table is often referred to as grouped data.
