Chapter 15 Visualising Solid Shapes
Very Short Answer Type
Question 1.
If three cubes of dimensions 2 cm × 2 cm × 2 cm are placed end to end, what would be the dimension of the resulting cuboid?
Solution:
Length of the resulting cuboid = 2 cm + 2 cm + 2 cm = 6 cm
Breadth = 2 cm
Height = 2 cm
Hence the required dimensions = 6 cm × 2 cm × 2 cm.
Question 2.
Answer the following:
(i) Why a cone is not a pyramid?
(ii) How many dimension a solid have?
(iii) Name the solid having one curved and two flat faces but no vertex.
Solution:
(i) Cone is not a pyramid because its base is not a polygon.
(ii) Three.
(iii) Cylinder
