12 multiple-choice questions, progressively harder.
An oblique circular cylinder has radius 444 cm, perpendicular height 666 cm, and slanted joining segments of length 101010 cm. What is its volume?
Solution
Correct answer: C
The base-parallel disk area stays constant under the lean. Multiply it by the perpendicular height.
A right prism has right triangular bases with legs 666 cm and 888 cm. The bases are 111111 cm apart. What is its volume?
Correct answer: A
Find one triangle area, then extend through the prism height.
A closed right triangular prism has base sides 888, 151515, and 171717 cm. The 888 cm and 151515 cm sides are perpendicular, and the prism height is 666 cm. What is its total surface area?
Correct answer: D
The net has three rectangles and two right triangles.
A prism has volume 162162162 cubic cm and base area 272727 square cm. What is its perpendicular height?
Correct answer: B
Divide volume by base area.
A circular cylinder has volume 150π150\pi150π cubic cm and radius 555 cm. What is its perpendicular height?
The base area is 25 pi square cm.
An ideal rectangular box has base 444 cm by 777 cm and perpendicular height 999 cm. It includes the bottom and four upright sides, with no lid. What material area is included?
Add one base to the four side rectangles.
A closed right prism has base area 202020 square cm, base perimeter 242424 cm, and total surface area 208208208 square cm. What is its height?
Subtract both bases before dividing by the perimeter.
A closed right circular cylinder has radius 555 cm and height 333 cm. What is its total surface area?
Both disks remain part of the boundary.
An ideal right cylindrical sleeve is open at both ends. Its radius is 777 cm and its height is 222 cm. Ignore thickness. What is its surface area?
With no end disks and zero thickness, only the curved side contributes.
The side of a right circular cylinder unrolls to a rectangle 12π12\pi12π cm wide around the base and 555 cm high. What is the cylinder's volume?
The wrapped width is the circumference, so recover the radius first.
Why is multiplying the base perimeter by the perpendicular solid height not a general lateral-area method for oblique prisms?
The surface calculation needs the altitude within each lateral face. A distance perpendicular to the base planes need not be that face altitude. Cavalieri preserves volume in the stated comparison, without supplying a surface-area formula.
A prism and a circular cylinder both have base area 151515 square cm and perpendicular height 888 cm. Which statement justifies equal volumes?
Both solids keep the base area throughout their heights. Cavalieri applies even though a polygon and a disk have different shapes.
