Question: Explore Your Understanding Assignment A playground apparatus is assembled by putting together three solid shapes: a cube, a cone and a cylinder. Front View: Right Side View: 135 cm 125 cm 125 cm 125 cm a. Draw the nets for each shape (cube, cone, and cylinder) individually, labeling the measurements on the nets. b. Determine the surface area of each of the three parts of the apparatus before they are assembled into the playground. Round each answer to the nearest hundredth.
1. **Problem Statement:** We have three solid shapes: a cube, a cone, and a cylinder. Given dimensions: - Cube side length $s = 125$ cm - Cone slant height $l = 135$ cm, base radius $r = 62.5$ cm (since cone sits on cube of side 125 cm, radius is half side) - Cylinder radius $r = 62.5$ cm, height $h = 125$ cm We need to: - a) Draw nets for each shape with measurements. - b) Calculate surface area of each shape before assembly. --- 2. **Nets and Measurements:** - Cube net: 6 squares each of side $125$ cm. - Cone net: a circular base of radius $62.5$ cm and a sector of a circle with radius $135$ cm (slant height) and arc length equal to circumference of base $2\pi \times 62.5$ cm. - Cylinder net: two circles of radius $62.5$ cm and a rectangle of height $125$ cm and width equal to circumference $2\pi \times 62.5$ cm. --- 3. **Surface Area Formulas:** - Cube surface area: $SA_{cube} = 6s^2$ - Cone surface area (excluding base): $SA_{cone} = \pi r l$ - Cylinder surface area (excluding bases): $SA_{cyl\,side} = 2\pi r h$ - Cylinder total surface area: $SA_{cyl} = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r h$ --- 4. **Calculations:** **Cube:** $$SA_{cube} = 6 \times 125^2 = 6 \times 15625 = 93750 \text{ cm}^2$$ **Cone:** Base radius $r = \frac{125}{2} = 62.5$ cm Slant height $l = 135$ cm Lateral surface area: $$SA_{cone} = \pi \times 62.5 \times 135 = 8437.5\pi \approx 26490.82 \text{ cm}^2$$ Base area: $$A_{base} = \pi r^2 = \pi \times 62.5^2 = 3906.25\pi \approx 12265.36 \text{ cm}^2$$ Total cone surface area: $$SA_{cone,total} = 26490.82 + 12265.36 = 38756.18 \text{ cm}^2$$ **Cylinder:** Radius $r = 62.5$ cm, height $h = 125$ cm Lateral surface area: $$SA_{cyl,side} = 2\pi \times 62.5 \times 125 = 15625\pi \approx 49087.39 \text{ cm}^2$$ Base area (two bases): $$2 \times \pi r^2 = 2 \times \pi \times 62.5^2 = 2 \times 3906.25\pi = 7812.5\pi \approx 24530.72 \text{ cm}^2$$ Total cylinder surface area: $$SA_{cyl,total} = 49087.39 + 24530.72 = 73618.11 \text{ cm}^2$$ --- 5. **Summary of Surface Areas (rounded to nearest hundredth):** - Cube: $93750.00$ cm$^2$ - Cone: $38756.18$ cm$^2$ - Cylinder: $73618.11$ cm$^2$ These are the surface areas before assembly.
