Mensuration
Mathematics Solutions from Chapter -1 - Mensuration
In this chapter, we will learn about mensuration. It is used for calculating areas of rectilinear fields, to calculate volumes of a cylindrical shape, spheres, cubical containers, etc.

This topic covers the calculations for the surface area and volume of an object formed by combining any two basic solids, namely, cuboid, cone, cylinder, sphere and hemisphere. It defines and discusses formulas for the calculation of frustums.

This topic explains the concept related to perimeter and area of plane closed figures like quadrilaterals. It also explains the concepts of surface area and volume of solids, such as cube, cuboid and cylinder.

This topic explains that a trapezium is a quadrilateral in which a pair of sides is parallel but the other pair of opposite sides are non-parallel. The area of a trapezium is equal to product 12 and the sum of parallel sides and distance between them.

This topic teaches us how to find the area of typical quadrilateral. A four-sided, plane figure is known as a quadrilateral. A general quadrilateral can be split into two triangles by drawing one of its diagonals.

This topic teaches us how to find the area of a polygon. A pentagon is a five-sided polygon. It can be both regular and sporadic. A regular pentagon's sides and angles are equal to 108 degrees for each inner angle and its outer angle is equal to 72 degrees.

This topic defines the area of a cuboid as the sum of the area of each side of a rectangle. There are six sides of a cuboid for which each area is given by multiplying length into breadth. Similarly, area of a cube is the sum of the area of each square side.

This topic explains that the volume of a cuboid is the product of its length, breadth and height and its unit is meter to the power of three. Now since all the sides of a cube is equal, the volume of a cube is three times its length.

We will learn in this topic that there is not much difference between volume and capacity. Volume refers to the amount of space occupied by an object and capacity refers to the quantity that a container holds.
