Answer:

Solution:

The volume of the combined solids will equal the sum of the volumes of the separate solids.

Given radius of the hemisphere, r = 5 cm

Radius of cone, r = 5 cm

Height of the cone, h = 7 cm

Volume of the solid = Volume of the hemisphere + Volume of the cone

= (2/3)π r3 + (1/3)π r2h

= (1/3)π r2(2r+h)

= (1/3)×(22/7)×52(2×5+7)

= (22/21)×25(10+7)

= (22/21)×25×17

= 445.238 cm3

= 445.24 cm3

Hence the volume of the solid is 445.24 cm3 . M L Aggarwal - Understanding ICSE Mathematics - Class 10 chapter Mensuration Question 20 Solution image
