Surface Areas and Volumes — solved practice questions

8 Class 10 Mathematics questions with step-by-step solutions. Attempt each, then reveal the answer.

  1. Q1easy

    The total surface area of a cube with side a is:

    • A4a²
    • B6a²
    • Ca³
    • D3a²
    Show answer & solution

    Correct answer: (B) 6a²

    A cube has 6 equal square faces. TSA = 6a².

  2. Q2easy

    The volume of a cuboid with length l, breadth b and height h is:

    • Albh
    • B2(lb+bh+lh)
    • Clb+bh+lh
    • D2lbh
    Show answer & solution

    Correct answer: (A) lbh

    Volume = l × b × h.

  3. Q3easy

    The curved surface area of a cylinder with radius r and height h is:

    • Aπrh
    • B2πrh
    • Cπr²h
    • D2πr²+2πrh
    Show answer & solution

    Correct answer: (B) 2πrh

    CSA = 2πrh.

  4. Q4medium

    The total surface area of a cylinder is:

    • A2πrh
    • Bπr(r+h)
    • C2πr(r+h)
    • Dπr²h
    Show answer & solution

    Correct answer: (C) 2πr(r+h)

    TSA = 2πrh + 2πr² = 2πr(h + r).

  5. Q5easy

    The volume of a cylinder is:

    • A2πrh
    • Bπr²h
    • Cπrh²
    • Dπr²+h
    Show answer & solution

    Correct answer: (B) πr²h

    V = πr²h.

  6. Q6medium

    The volume of a cone with radius r and height h is:

    • A(1/3)πr²h
    • Bπr²h
    • C(2/3)πr²h
    • D(1/2)πr²h
    Show answer & solution

    Correct answer: (A) (1/3)πr²h

    V = (1/3)πr²h.

  7. Q7medium

    The slant height of a cone is:

    • Ar+h
    • B√(r²+h²)
    • C√(r+h)
    • Dh²+r²
    Show answer & solution

    Correct answer: (B) √(r²+h²)

    l = √(r²+h²).

  8. Q8medium

    The total surface area of a cone is:

    • Aπrl
    • Bπr²+h
    • Cπr(l+r)
    • D2πrl
    Show answer & solution

    Correct answer: (C) πr(l+r)

    TSA = πrl + πr² = πr(l+r), where l is slant height.
