 ∴ According to the question, 2πrH = 4πrh
 ⇒ H = 2h unitsCorrect Option: CCurved surface area of cylinder = 2πRH 
 ∴ According to the question, 2πrH = 4πrh
 ⇒ H = 2h units
-  A hemisphere and a cone have equal bases. If their heights are also equal, then the ratio of their curved surfaces will be

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Curved surface area of hemisphere = 2πr² 
 Curved surface area of cone = πrl = πr √r² + r²
 [∵ h = r]
 = √2πr²
 ∴ Required ratio = 2πr² : 2
 √2πr = √32 : 1Correct Option: DCurved surface area of hemisphere = 2πr² 
 Curved surface area of cone = πrl = πr √r² + r²
 [∵ h = r]
 = √2πr²
 ∴ Required ratio = 2πr² : 2
 √2πr = √32 : 1
-  There is a wooden sphere of radius 6√3cm. The surface area of the largest possible cube cut out from the sphere will be

 Diagonal of cube = Diameter of sphere = 6√3 × 2 = 12√3 cm.∴ Edge of cube = 12√3 = 12 cm. √3 
 ∴ Surface area of cube = 6 × (edge)² = (6 × 12 × 12) sq. cm.
 = 864 sq. cm.Correct Option: A 
 Diagonal of cube = Diameter of sphere = 6√3 × 2 = 12√3 cm.∴ Edge of cube = 12√3 = 12 cm. √3 
 ∴ Surface area of cube = 6 × (edge)² = (6 × 12 × 12) sq. cm.
 = 864 sq. cm.
-  The base of a right pyramid is a square of side 10 cm. If the height of the pyramid is 12 cm, then its total surface area is

 Slant height = BE = √12 + 5 = √144 + 25
 = √169 = 13 cm.∴ Lateral surface of pyramid = 1 × perimeter of base × slant height 2 = 1 × 40 × 13 = 260 sq. cm. 2 
 Area of base = 10 × 10 = 100 sq. cm.
 ∴ Total surface area = (260 + 100) sq. cm. = 360 sq. cm.Correct Option: D 
 Slant height = BE = √12 + 5 = √144 + 25
 = √169 = 13 cm.∴ Lateral surface of pyramid = 1 × perimeter of base × slant height 2 = 1 × 40 × 13 = 260 sq. cm. 2 
 Area of base = 10 × 10 = 100 sq. cm.
 ∴ Total surface area = (260 + 100) sq. cm. = 360 sq. cm.
