Area of base = Area of right angled triangle = 1 × 5 × 12 = 30 sq.cm. 2
[∵ 5² + 12² = 13²]∴ Volume = 1 × Area of base × height 3 ⇒ 330 = 1 × 30 × h 3 ⇒ 330 = 330 × 33 cm./td> 10 Correct Option: A

Volume of solid sphere = 4 πr³ 3 Volume of solid sphere = 4 π(0.3)³ cubic metre 3
If the radius of the circular sheet be R, then
Volume of the sheet = πR² × 0.001Volume of solid sphere = 4 π(0.3)³ 3 R² × 0.001 = 4 × 0.3 × 0.3 × 0.3 3
R² = 36 ⇒ R = 6 metres
∴ Diameter = 12 metresCorrect Option: C

Sum of the volume of two cylinders = πr1²h1 + πr2²h2
= 22 (4 × 4 × 6 + 5 × 5 × 4) 7 = 22 (96 + 100) 7 = 22 × 196 = 616 cm³ 7
Let the radius of the disc be r cm.
∴ πr² × 1 = 616⇒ r² = 22 × r² = 616 7 ⇒ r² = 616 × 7 = 196 22
⇒ r = √196 = 14 cmCorrect Option: B
