1. Identify the basic geometric solids that make up the composite solid shown below:

2. To find the volume of a composite solid, you typically   the volumes of its individual component solids.

3. A composite solid made of a cylinder and a hemisphere has a total volume equal to the sum of the volume of the cylinder and  .

4. A composite solid is formed by a cylinder with a radius of 3 cm and a height of 10 cm, topped by a hemisphere of the same radius. Calculate the total volume of this composite solid. (Use π ≈ 3.14)

10 cm3 cm

5. When calculating the surface area of a composite solid, which of the following is generally true?

a

You add the surface areas of all individual component solids.

b

You subtract the areas of overlapping surfaces from the sum of individual surface areas.

c

You only consider the surface area of the largest component solid.

d

Surface area is not applicable to composite solids.

6. A composite solid is always formed by combining two or more different types of geometric solids.

T

True

F

False

7. A water tank is shaped like a cylinder with a cone on top. The cylinder has a diameter of 6 meters and a height of 8 meters. The cone has the same diameter and a slant height of 5 meters. Calculate the total volume of the water tank. (Use π ≈ 3.14)
