    What shapes can be formed by combining 2 or more 3-D objects?

    We have studied how to find the surface areas and volumes of the three-dimensional shapes such as sphere, right circular cylinder, cuboid, cone, and hemisphere.

    We will now look at some 3-D shapes that are formed by combining two or more of these objects and in the upcoming segments, we will understand how to find the surface area and volumes of these combined objects.

    Let us look at some such shapes.

    Example 1

    Two hemispheres attached to the plane surfaces of a right circular cylinder gives a container.

    hemisphere + cylinder + hemisphere

    Example 2

    A hemisphere attached to the plane surface of the right circular cylinder gives us a test tube shape.

    cylinder + hemisphere

    Example 3

    A cone with a hemisphere on its plane surface gives an ice-cream cone or a playing top type of shape

    hemisphere + cone

    Hemisphere

    Cone

    Example 4

    A cylinder attached to a right circular cone gives this shape which resembles a rocket

    cone + cylinder

    Cylinder

    Cone

    Example 5

    The combination of a cuboid and half a cylinder forms a shape like a safe. The half-cylinder is formed by cutting a right cylinder along its axis.

    half-cylinder + cuboid

    Half-cylinder

    Cuboid

    What’s next?

    In the next segment of Class 10 Maths, we will learn about the surface area of a playing top.
