Case_Study_Questions_Mensuration_Class_8
The following case study-based questions are designed to enhance students' understanding of
mensuration concepts. The questions focus on 2D figures like rectangles, squares, trapeziums, and
rhombuses, as well as 3D figures such as cubes, cuboids, and cylinders, covering total surface
area, lateral surface area, and volume. Solve the questions carefully and apply the correct formulas.
1. A rectangular park has a length of 50 m and a breadth of 30 m. A walking path 2 m wide is built
2. A square-shaped garden has a side length of 25 m. If a border 1 m wide is painted around the
3. A trapezium has parallel sides of lengths 10 m and 6 m and a height of 8 m. Find its area.
5. A rectangular floor is covered with square tiles of side 0.5 m. If the floor's dimensions are 4 m by
6. A cube has an edge of 5 cm. Find its total surface area and lateral surface area.
7. If the volume of a cube is 125 cm³, find the length of its edge.
8. A cube has an edge length of 7 cm. Calculate its lateral surface area and volume.
10. A water tank is in the shape of a cuboid with dimensions 1.5 m × 1 m × 0.8 m. Find its capacity
area.
12. A cylindrical water tank has a radius of 2 m and a height of 7 m. Find its lateral surface area.
13. A cylindrical drum has a radius of 0.5 m and a height of 1 m. Calculate its total surface area.
14. The volume of a cylinder is 616 cm³, and its height is 14 cm. Find its radius.
15. A metal pipe is in the shape of a hollow cylinder. The outer radius is 7 cm, the inner radius is 6
cm, and the height is 10 cm. Find the volume of the metal used in the pipe.
16. A rectangular hall has dimensions 20 m × 15 m. It is to be covered with square tiles of side 2 m.

19. A trapezium-shaped plot of land has parallel sides of 50 m and 30 m and a height of 20 m. It is
divided into two smaller plots by a line parallel to its sides. If the height of one part is 12 m, find the
20. A cylindrical tank is 2 m in diameter and 4 m high. It is filled with water to a height of 3 m. Find
the volume of water in the tank and the empty space left.
