### Volume

In our daily life the number of things is stored in different kinds of container. Holding capacity of a container is called its volume. For ex.: The amount of water that a bucket can hold is called volume of the bucket.

Volume of the Cuboid

Volume of a cuboid = Length $\times$ breadth $\times$height

=lbh.

In the cuboid ABCDEFG

Length of the cuboid = AB

Breadth of the cuboid = AE

Height of the cuboid = BC

Thus volume of the cuboid $\text{ABCDEFG=AB }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ AE }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ BC=6 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 5 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 5=150 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\text{.}$

Find the volume of the following cuboid:

Explanation

In the cuboid PQRSTUV

Length of the cuboid = PQ = 7 cm

Breadth of the cuboid = PT = 5 cm

Height of the cuboid = PS = 6 cm

Thus volume of the cuboid PQRSTUV $\text{=PQ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ PT }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ PS}$

$=\text{ }7\text{ }cm\times 5\text{ }cm\times 6\text{ }cm\text{ }=210\text{ }c{{m}^{3}}.$

Volume of a Cube

Volume of a cube $\text{= sid}{{\text{e}}^{\text{3}}}\text{.}$

In the cube ABCDEFG

Volume of the cube ABCDEFG $\text{A}{{\text{B}}^{\text{3}}}\text{=(8CM}{{\text{)}}^{\text{3}}}\text{=512C}{{\text{M}}^{\text{3}}}$

Find the volume of the following figure:

Solution:

In the cube ABCDEFG

Volume of the cube ABCDEFG $\text{=AB(6}\,\text{CM}{{\text{)}}^{\text{3}}}\text{=216}\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

• If base of triangle is doubled, the area of the triangle also gets doubled.
• If area and perimeters of a circle are numerically equal, numeric value of the radius of the circle is 2.

• Perimeter is defined as the length the length of boundary line of a close geometrical figure.
• Perimeter of a triangle is defined as the sum of all three sides.
• Perimeter of an equilateral triangle is given by 3 $\times$ length of a side.
• Perimeter of a rectangle is given by 2 (length + breadth).
• Perimeter of a square is given by 4$\times$ side.
• Space occupied by an object is called area.
• Area of square is given by $\text{sid}{{\text{e}}^{\text{2}}}\text{.}$
• Holding capacity of a container is called volume.
