Mensuration Worksheet for Maths Olympiad
How to solve it (Divide by 7 first): Circle: circumference = 2 × π × r; area = π × r × r. With π = 22/7, divide the radius by 7 first. Cube of edge a: volume = a × a × a, surface area = 6 × a × a. Cuboid: volume = l × b × h, surface area = 2 × (lb + bh + hl). Make every length k times as long: areas become k × k times as big, volumes k × k × k times.
