Solid Mensuration Problems and Answers

This document contains 6 math word problems. Problem 1 asks about the depth of water in a trough shaped like a right triangle. Problem 2 asks about the volume of water in a swimming pool with varying depths. Problem 3 asks about the volume and surface area of a model house made of a triangular prism on a rectangular base. Problem 4 asks about the volume of a cube with the same surface area as a rectangular solid with dimensions in a 1:3:12 ratio. Problem 5 asks about the volume of an oblique parallelepiped with specified dimensions. Problem 6 asks about the area of a shaded triangular region of a prism with a regular polygon base.

1. A trough is formed by nailing together, edge
to edge, two boards 11 ft. In length, so that
the right section is a right triangle. If 15
gal. Of water are poured into the trough and
if the trough is held level so that a right
section of the water is an isosceles right
triangle, how deep is the watr? (231 cu.in. =
1 gal.)

2. Find the volume of water in a swimming pool


with vertical ends and sides.
The length
measured at the water line is 50 ft. and the
breadth is 20 ft. The bottom of the swimming
pool is a plane sloping gradually downward so
that the depth of the water at one end is
4ft. and at the other end is 8 ft.

of
the
base
of
an
oblique
parallelepiped are 6cm and 10cm and with
included angle of 45o.
A lateral edge 12cm
forms an angle of 60o with the base. Find the
volume of the parallelepiped.

6. Find the area of the shaded portion, which


is the area of the triangle ABC if the
prisms base is a regular polygon with

Bonus: Write your solutions and answers at the back. Answer only this question if you are sure of
your answer in number 6. If a vertical plane passed through the line connecting A and E in order
to cut the prism into two different solid figures, what will be the volume of each of the figures
formed?
