Topics in Surface Areas and Volumes
1
Surface Area of Right Circular Cone
- A right circular cone is formed by rotating a right-angled triangle about one of its perpendicular sides
- Key parts: vertex (apex), height (h), radius (r), slant height (l)
- Relationship between height, radius and slant height: l² = h² + r²
2
Surface Area of Sphere and Hemisphere
- A sphere is formed by rotating a circle about its diameter
- All points on a sphere are equidistant from the center
- A hemisphere is exactly half of a sphere
3
Volume of Right Circular Cone
- Volume represents the space inside a 3D object
- Cone volume is one-third of cylinder volume with same base and height
- Experimental verification: 3 cones fill 1 cylinder completely
4
Volume of Sphere and Hemisphere
- Sphere volume can be determined through water displacement method
- Volume is proportional to the cube of radius (r³)
- Hemisphere volume is exactly half of sphere volume
