Volume And Surface Area 
Class:VIII
What similarities do you see in the 
pictures below ?
The measure of the place occupied 
by an object in space is called its 
Volume 
&. 
The area of a face is called the Surface Area
CYLINDER : 
A cylinder has THREE surfaces . TWO surfaces are 
flat and circular . The remaining surface is curved , 
This is called the Curved Surface of the cylinder . 
Curved surface 
Base
VOLUME OF CYLINDER = AREA OF BASE x HEIGHT 
HEIGHT= h 
AREA OF BASE = 
AREA OF A CIRCLE 
= лr2 
VOLUME OF THE CYLINDER = лr2 h 
If the value of л is not given , take л = 22/7 .

A cone has one circular flat surface and one curved surface . 
Seg PA (h) is the height of the cone 
Seg 0P (r) is the radius of the base . 
Seg AO (l) is the slant height of the 
cone . 
A 
O 
P 
The angle between the height of the cone and a radius of the 
base is a right angle .
VOLUME OF A CONE = 1/3 ×AREA OF BASE ×HEIGHT 
Height = h 
Area of a base = Area of a circle 
Area of a circle = r2 
Volume of a cone = 1/3 r2 h

r = 3 cm , h = 14 cm 
Volume of a cone = 1/3 л ґ2 h 
= 1/3 x 22/7 x 3 cm x 3 cm x 14 cm
