CASE STUDY: STUDY OF FIGURES AND SHAPES
Sam a student of class 7th loves watching and playing with birds of different kinds. One day he had an
idea in his mind to make a bird-bath on his garden. His brother who is studying in class 10th helped
him to choose the material and shape of the birdbath. They made it in the shape of a cylinder with a
hemispherical depression at one end as shown in the Figure. They opted for the height of the hollow
cylinder as 1.45 m and its radius is 30 cm.
By using the above-given information, find the following:
i) The curved surface area of the hemisphere is:
a) 0.36 m2
b) 0.46 m2
c) 0.26 m2
d) 0.56 m2
ii) The curved surface area of the cylinder is:
a) 0.78Π m2
b) 0.87

Π m2
c) 0.87Π2 m2
d) 0.87Π m2
iii) The total surface area of the bird-bath is: (Take Π = 22

)
a) 2.3 m2
b) 3.3 m2
c) 3.5 m2
d) 5.3 m2
iv) The total surface area of the cylinder is given by:
a) 2Πrh + 2Πr3 b) 2Πrh + Πr2
c) 2Πrh + 2Πr2 d) Πrh + 2Πr2
v) During the conversion of a solid from one shape to another the volume of the new shape will :
a) Remain unaltered b) Decrease
c) Double d) Increase

QUESTION 1 ANSWER = 0.36M2
QUESTION 2 ANSWER = 0.87
QUESTION 3 ANSWER = 3.3M2
QUESTION 4 ANSWER = double
Given : birdbath in the shape of a cylinder with a hemispherical depression at one end as shown in the Figure.
height of the hollow cylinder as 1.45 m and its radius is 30 cm.
To Find : The curved surface area of the hemisphere is:
The curved surface area of the cylinder is:
The total surface area of the bird-bath
The total surface area of the cylinder is given by:
Solution:
curved surface area of the hemisphere is: 2πr²
r = 30 cm = 0.3 m
=> curved surface area of the hemisphere = 2(22/7)(0.3)²
= 0.5657
from given options :
= 0.56 m²
curved surface area of the cylinder = 2πrh
= 2 π (0.3)(1.45)
= 0.87 π m²
The total surface area of the bird-bath = base + curved cylinder + curved hemisphere =
πr² + 2πrh + 2πr²
= 2πrh + 3πr²
= 3.57 m²
if base not includes then
2πrh + 2πr² = 3.3 m²
The total surface area of the cylinder is given by: 2πrh + πr2 ( as open from top)
During the conversion of a solid from one shape to another the volume of the new shape will : Remain unaltered
