1. If the length of every edge of a cube is doubled, by what factor does its volume increase?

  1. 2 times
  2. 4 times
  3. 6 times
  4. 8 times
Show answer

Answer: D

Volume scaling factor = 2³ = 8 times.

2. Find the volume of a square-based pyramid with base side length 6 cm and height 10 cm.

  1. 120 cm³
  2. 360 cm³
  3. 180 cm³
  4. 60 cm³
Show answer

Answer: A

Volume = 13 × Base Area × Height = 13 × (6 × 6) × 10 = 13 × 36 × 10 = 120 cm³.

3. How many edges does a square-based pyramid have?

  1. 5
  2. 6
  3. 8
  4. 12
Show answer

Answer: C

A square pyramid has 4 base edges and 4 slant edges connecting to the apex, total 8 edges.

4. A cylinder has a volume of 308 cm³ and a height of 8 cm. Find its radius. (Take π = 227)

  1. 3.5 cm
  2. 7 cm
  3. 14 cm
  4. 4.9 cm
Show answer

Answer: A

Volume = πr²h => 308 = (227) × r² × 8 => 308 = (1767)r² => r² = 308 × 7176 = 12.25 => r = 3.5 cm.

5. Find the total surface area of a closed cylinder with radius 7 cm and height 3 cm. (Take π = 227)

  1. 440 cm²
  2. 308 cm²
  3. 132 cm²
  4. 154 cm²
Show answer

Answer: A

Surface Area = 2πr² + 2πrh = 2(227)(7²) + 2(227)(7)(3) = 308 + 132 = 440 cm².

6. Calculate the total surface area of a cube with side length 5 cm.

  1. 25 cm²
  2. 100 cm²
  3. 125 cm²
  4. 150 cm²
Show answer

Answer: D

A cube has 6 square faces. Total surface area = 6 × (5)² = 6 × 25 = 150 cm².

7. Which 3D shape has two congruent circular bases and one curved surface?

  1. Cone
  2. Cylinder
  3. Sphere
  4. Prism
Show answer

Answer: B

A cylinder consists of two parallel, congruent circular bases connected by a curved surface.

8. Calculate the volume of a sphere with radius 3 cm. (Take π = 227)

  1. 113.14 cm³
  2. 36 cm³
  3. 113 17 cm³
  4. 226 27 cm³
Show answer

Answer: C

Volume = 43 πr³ = 43 × 227 × 3³ = 43 × 227 × 27 = 36 × 227 = 7927 = 113 17 cm³ (or 113.14 cm³).

9. Find the volume of a cone with radius 7 cm and height 12 cm. (Take π = 227)

  1. 616 cm³
  2. 1848 cm³
  3. 308 cm³
  4. 1232 cm³
Show answer

Answer: A

Volume = 13 πr²h = 13 × (227) × 7² × 12 = 13 × 154 × 12 = 154 × 4 = 616 cm³.

10. A cone has a base radius of 6 cm and a perpendicular height of 8 cm. What is its slant height s?

  1. 10 cm
  2. 14 cm
  3. 12 cm
  4. 100 cm
Show answer

Answer: A

Using Pythagoras' theorem: s = √r² + h² = √6² + 8² = √36 + 64 = √100 = 10 cm.
