CONTENT:
Basic trigonometric ratios (i) sine (ii) cosine (iii) tangent with respect to right-angled triangles.
These trigonometric ratios are applicable to right – angled triangle. A right – angle triangle is 900. Thus the remaining two angles add up to 900 since every triangle contains two right angles.
In ∆ABC, B + C = 900.
Such angles whose sum is 900 are said to be complementary angles. While capital letter are used for angles, small (lower case) letters are used for sides. Notice that the side opposite A is labelled a, the one opposite B is labelled b etc.
The side opposite the right angle is called the hypotenuse. Every right – angled triangle obeys the Pythagoras theorem. This theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse of any right angled triangle is equal to the sum of the square of the other two sides.
Thus in the above triangle, a2=b2+c2
Apply Pythagoras theorem to the right – angled triangles below to find the lettered sides.
There are six basic trigonometric ratios viz: sine, cosine, tangent, cosecant, secant and cotangent. The first three are commonly used.
They are applicable only to right – angled triangles. Their short forms are: Sin, Cos, tan, cosec, sec, and cot respectively.

COSINE
The trigonometric ratio cosine is adjacent divided by hypotenuse. Its reciprocal is secant.
In the triangle above, B and C are complementary Sin B = b/a = Cos C
Also Sin C = c/a = CosB
For complementary angles, the sine of one is the cosine of the other i.e
Sin θ = Cos (90 - θ)
Example: solve sin2x = cos3x
Solution
Since Sin θ = cos (90 - θ)
So, sin2x = cos (90 – 2x) (i)
But we are given that
Sin2x = cos3x (ii)
From the right hand sides of equation (i) and (ii)
We conclude that
900 – 2x = 3x
900 = 5x
So x = 90/5 = 180.

Angles 300 and 600.
To consider the trigonometric ratios for the special angles 300 and 600, we shall consider an equilateral triangle of side 2units.
If the triangle is bisected we shall have 300

If the value of the altitude h, can be obtained using Pythagoras theorem.
h2 + 12=22
h2 = 4 – 1
h= √3 consequently, Sin300 = opp/hyp = ½
Cos300 = adj/hyp
= √3/2
Tan300 = opp/adj
= 1/√3
Sin 600 = √3/2
Cos 600 = ½
Tan 600 = √3/1
= √3

Example find x and y in the figure below

Look at the figure with respect to the given 600, the known side is adjacent. The unknown side x is the hypotenuse, the trigonometric ratio that connects the known (adjacent) and the unknown (hypotenuse) is cosine.
Thus we write
Cos 600 = 4/x
But cos 60 = ½
So ½ = 4/x
Hence x = 8.
To find y, y is the opposite side and 4 is the adjacent. Hence we use tangent
Tan 600 = y/4
But tan 600 = √3
√3=y/4,
hence y = 4√3

Trigonometric ratios related to the unit circle
Angles between 00 and 3600.
Consider a circle of radius one unit and centre at O, the origin, in the XY plane.

https://youtu.be/c819bGfH8FA
The circle is called a unit circle. Point P has co-ordinate (x,y) and lOPl = 1 unit.
Line Op makes an angle of θ with Ox.
In the right – angled triangles,
Sinθ = y/1 = y
Cosθ = x/1 = x
The values of x and y are a measure of Cosθ and Sinθ respectively.
Let the unit circle be graduated in degrees from 00 to 3600 as shown below. The graph of y = Sinθ can be drawn using the unit circle.
One can plot values of y against θ to get a wave-like curve.
For instance when θ = 3600, the corresponding y value is obtained by drawing dotted horizontal line from mark 300 on the unit circle to meet the y – axis.
When θ = 900, the dotted horizontal line for 900 on the circle will meet the y – axis where y = 1
https://youtu.be/1m9p9iubMLU

To draw the graph of Cosx, use the corresponding values of x and θ.
https://youtu.be/Vn4TnlrFpsw
For instance on the circle, when θ = 00, that corresponds to x = 1, when θ = 600, dotted line from point 600 on the unit circle vertically downwards will meet the x-axis at x = ½
(i.e when θ = 600, x = ½).
Plotting values of x against corresponding values of θ gives the graph of Cos θ . it is another wave-shaped curve.
As θ increases beyond 3600, the curves of Sin θ and Cosθ repeat themselves.

Definition and meaning of an arc sector and segment of a circle.
Length of arc of circle
Perimeter of sectors and segments
Areas of sectors and segments
Areas of sectors of a circle
Area of segments of a circle
DEFINITION AND MEANING, LENGTH OF ARCS OF CIRCLE
AN ARC: an arc of a circle is a part of the circumference of the circle.

Hence, an arc is a length or a distance along the circumference of a circle. It is never an area.
A SECTOR: a sector is a part or a fraction of a circle bounded by an arc and two radii.

Hence, an arc is a length whereas the sector covers an area of a circle.
A SEGMENT
The segment of a circle is the part cut off from the circle by a chord. A chord is the line segment AB.

https://youtu.be/viM7a4IUp9Y
LENGHT OF ARCS OF CIRCLES
If 5 sectors are cut off from 5 different circles and the lengths of the arcs l, radii r and angles θ measured and compared.
Then
i/2π = θ/360 or L = θ/360 x 2 πr = 2 πr θ/360
hence, in a circle of radius r, the length l of an arc that subtends angle θ at the centre is given by
L = θ/360 x 2 πr

Example 1:
Find the length of an arc of a circle of radius 5.6cm which subtends an angle of 600 at the centre of the circle (Take π = 22/7)
Solution
Length of arc = θ/360 x 2 πr
Given θ = 600, r = 5.6cm, π = 22/7
Substituting into the formula,
Length of arc AB = 60/360 x 2 x 22/7 x 5.6
= 1/6 x 2 x 22/7 x 5.6
= 1/6 x 2 x 22/7 x 0.8
= 17.6/3
= 5.8667cm
= 5.87cm (2 decimal places)
Example 2;
What angle does an arc 6.6cm in length subtends at the centre of a circle of radius 14cm. Use π = 22/7)
Solution
Length of arc xy = θ/360 x 2 πr
6.6 = θ/360 x 2 x 22/7 x 14
θx 2 x 22 x 14 = 6.6 x 360 x 7
θ = (6.6 x 360 x 7)/(2 x 22 x 14)
= (33 x 18)/11x2
= 3 x 9
= 270
θ = 270 , the angles subtend by the arc
Example 3:
An arc of length 12.57cm subtends an angle of 600 at the centre of a circle. Find
The radius of the circle
The diameter of the circle.
Solution
Arc= θ/360 x 2 πr
12.57 = 60/360 x 2 x 22/7 x r/1
12.57 x 360 x 7 = 60 x 2 x 22 x r
r = (12.57 x 360 x 7)/(60 x 2 x 22)
r = (12.57 x 6 x 7)/44
r = 527.94/44
r = 11.99
r = 12cm
Example 4:
An arc of a circle of diameter 28m subtends an angle of 1080 at the centre of the circle. Find the length of the major arc.
Solution
Minor arc angle = 1080
Major arc angle = 3600 – 1080
= 2520.
Arc = = θ/360 x 2 πr
= 252/360 x 2/1 x 22/7 x 14/1
= (252 x 44)/180
= 11088/180
= 61.6m
The length of major arc = 61.6m

In terms of π, what is the length of an arc of a circle of radius 31/2m?
https://youtu.be/SwrlKx52L5o
PERIMETER OF SECTORS AND SEGMENTS
The word perimeter simply means the distance round an object. So the perimeter of a sector of a circle is the distance round the circle.

hence the perimeter of a sector AOB is the sum of two radii (2r) and length of arc l, where r is radius and l = length of arc.
Perimeter of sector AOB = 2r + Lunits
Example
Find the perimeter of the sector of radius 3.5cm which subtends an angle of (i) 450 (ii)3150.
Solution
Length of arc = θ/360 x 2πr
Here θ = 450, r = 3.5cm, π = 22/7
Length of arc = 45/360 x 2 x 22/7 x 3.5
= 1/8 x 2/1x 22/7 x 7/2
= 22/8
= 2.75cm
The perimeter of the sector is 2r + l, here r = radius which is 3.5cm and l = 2.75cm.
Perimeter = 2r + length of arc
= 2r + 2.75cm
= (2 x 3.5) + 2.75cm
= 7.0 + 2.75cm
= 9.75cm
(ii) θ = 3150, π = 22/7 , r = 3.5cm
Length of arc = 315/360 x 2 x 22/7 x 3.5cm
= 63/72 x 2 x 22/7 x 7/2 cm
= 7/8 x 2 x 22/7 x 7/2 cm
= 77/4 = 19.25cm
Perimeter = 2r + 19.25cm
= (2 x 3.5) + 19.25
= 7 + 19.25
= 26.25cm

Page 163, 15, 16, 23, 27
PERIMETER OF SEGMENT
The perimeter of a segment = length of arc + length of chord.
To find the length of chord AB, we bisect <AOB
Example 2:
The perimeter of a sector is 61.43cm. If the angle subtended by the sector at the centre is 1200. Find the radius of the sector.
Solution
Perimeter of a sector = Arc + 2r
61.43 = = θ/360 x 2πr + 2r
61.43 = = 120/360 x 2 x 22/7 x r + 2r
61.43 = = 1/3 x 2 x 22/7 x r + 2r
Multiply through by L.c.m = 21
21 x 61.43 = (211/3)x 2 x 22r)/ 3 x 7+ 2r)
1290.03 = 2 x 22r + 21 + 2r
1290.03 = 44r + 42r
1290.03 = 86r
86r = 1290.03
r = 1290.03/86
r = 15.00cm
https://youtu.be/3j8p1HW9GkI
Example 3
The perimeter of a sector is 61.43cm. If the radium of the sector is 15cm. Find the angle it subtends at the centre.
Solution
Perimeter of a sector = Arc + 2r
61.43 = θ/360 x 2 πr + 2r

A rope of length 18m is used to form a sector of a circle of radius 2.5m on a school playing field. What is the size of the angle of the sector? Correct to the nearest degree?
The perimeter of a sector is 75.43cm. If the angle – subtended by the sector at the centre is 1350. Find the radius of the sector.
An arc of length 21.34cm subtends an angle 1010 at the centre of a circle. Find the diameter of the circle.
Using trigonometric ratios
AD/r = Sin θ/2
AD = r Sin θ/2
But, AD = DB
Hence
AB chord AB = AD + DB
= r Sin θ/2 + r Sin θ/2
= 2r Sin θ/2 units
Length of Chord = 2r Sin θ/2units
Thus,
Perimeter of segment = θ/360 x 2πr + 2r Sin θ/2
= θ/180 x πr + 2r Sin θ/2
Example 3:
AB is a chord of a circle with centre o and radius 4cm, AOB = 1200. Calculate the perimeter of the minor segment (π = 22/7).
Solution

Chord AB = rSinθ/2, r = 4cm, θ = 1200.
θ/2 = 120/2 = 600.
So chord AB = 2 x 4 Sin 600
= 8 x sin 600
= 8 x(√3)/2
= 4√3cm
= 6.92cm
Length of arc AB = 120/360 x 2 x 4 x 22/7
= 1/3 x 8 x 22/7
= 176/21
= 8.38cm (2 d.p)
Perimeter of minor segment = length of arc + chord
= 8.38 + 6.92cm
= 15.30cm

AREA OF SECTORS OF A CIRCLE
The area of a sector = θ/360 x area of circle
= θ/360 x πr2, where θ is the angle formed at the centre by the arc of the circle.
Example 1:
Find the area of the sector of a circle of radius 4.8cm which subtends an angle of 1350 at the centre.(Take π = 3.142)
Solution
The area of a sector = θ/360 x πr2
Here θ = 1350, r = 4.8cm, π = 3.142
The area of a sector = 135/360 x 3.142 x (4.8)2
= 135/360 x 3.142 x 4.8 x 4.8
= 27 x 3.142 x 0.4 x 0.8
= 27.14688cm2
Area of sector = 27.15cm2 (decimal places)
Example 2:
AB is an arc of a circle of length 9.2cm with centre 0 and the radius is 4.6cm. Find the area of the sector AOB.
Solution
Length of arc AB = θ/360 x 2πr
r = 4.6cm, length of arc = 9.2cm
Length of arc AB = θ/360 x 2 x π x 4.6
9.2 = θ/360 x 2 x π x 4.6
9.2 x 360 = θ x 2 x π x 4.6
θ = (9.2 x 360)/(2 π x 4.6)
θ = ( 360)/π
Area of sector AOB
= θ/360 x πr2
= θ/360 x πr2
= θ/360 x 1/360 x π x (4.6)2

DEFINITION AND MEANING, LENGTH OF ARCS OF CIRCLE
AN ARC: an arc of a circle is a part of the circumference of the circle.

Hence, an arc is a length or a distance along the circumference of a circle. It is never an area.
A SECTOR: a sector is a part or a fraction of a circle bounded by an arc and two radii.

Hence, an arc is a length whereas the sector covers an area of a circle.
A SEGMENT
The segment of a circle is the part cut off from the circle by a chord. A chord is the line segment AB.

https://youtu.be/viM7a4IUp9Y
LENGHT OF ARCS OF CIRCLES
If 5 sectors are cut off from 5 different circles and the lengths of the arcs l, radii r and angles θ measured and compared.
Then
i/2π = θ/360 or L = θ/360 x 2 πr = 2 πr θ/360
hence, in a circle of radius r, the length l of an arc that subtends angle θ at the centre is given by
L = θ/360 x 2 πr

Example 1:
Find the length of an arc of a circle of radius 5.6cm which subtends an angle of 600 at the centre of the circle (Take π = 22/7)
Solution
Length of arc = θ/360 x 2 πr
Given θ = 600, r = 5.6cm, π = 22/7
Substituting into the formula,
Length of arc AB = 60/360 x 2 x 22/7 x 5.6
= 1/6 x 2 x 22/7 x 5.6
= 1/6 x 2 x 22/7 x 0.8
= 17.6/3
= 5.8667cm
= 5.87cm (2 decimal places)
Example 2;
What angle does an arc 6.6cm in length subtends at the centre of a circle of radius 14cm. Use π = 22/7)
Solution
Length of arc xy = θ/360 x 2 πr
6.6 = θ/360 x 2 x 22/7 x 14
θx 2 x 22 x 14 = 6.6 x 360 x 7
θ = (6.6 x 360 x 7)/(2 x 22 x 14)
= (33 x 18)/11x2
= 3 x 9
= 270
θ = 270 , the angles subtend by the arc
Example 3:
An arc of length 12.57cm subtends an angle of 600 at the centre of a circle. Find
The radius of the circle
The diameter of the circle.
Solution
Arc= θ/360 x 2 πr
12.57 = 60/360 x 2 x 22/7 x r/1
12.57 x 360 x 7 = 60 x 2 x 22 x r
r = (12.57 x 360 x 7)/(60 x 2 x 22)
r = (12.57 x 6 x 7)/44
r = 527.94/44
r = 11.99
r = 12cm
Example 4:
An arc of a circle of diameter 28m subtends an angle of 1080 at the centre of the circle. Find the length of the major arc.
Solution
Minor arc angle = 1080
Major arc angle = 3600 – 1080
= 2520.
Arc = = θ/360 x 2 πr
= 252/360 x 2/1 x 22/7 x 14/1
= (252 x 44)/180
= 11088/180
= 61.6m
The length of major arc = 61.6m

https://youtu.be/SwrlKx52L5o
PERIMETER OF SECTORS AND SEGMENTS
The word perimeter simply means the distance round an object. So the perimeter of a sector of a circle is the distance round the circle.

hence the perimeter of a sector AOB is the sum of two radii (2r) and length of arc l, where r is radius and l = length of arc.
Perimeter of sector AOB = 2r + Lunits
Example
Find the perimeter of the sector of radius 3.5cm which subtends an angle of (i) 450 (ii)3150.
Solution
Length of arc = θ/360 x 2πr
Here θ = 450, r = 3.5cm, π = 22/7
Length of arc = 45/360 x 2 x 22/7 x 3.5
= 1/8 x 2/1x 22/7 x 7/2
= 22/8
= 2.75cm
The perimeter of the sector is 2r + l, here r = radius which is 3.5cm and l = 2.75cm.
Perimeter = 2r + length of arc
= 2r + 2.75cm
= (2 x 3.5) + 2.75cm
= 7.0 + 2.75cm
= 9.75cm
(ii) θ = 3150, π = 22/7 , r = 3.5cm
Length of arc = 315/360 x 2 x 22/7 x 3.5cm
= 63/72 x 2 x 22/7 x 7/2 cm
= 7/8 x 2 x 22/7 x 7/2 cm
= 77/4 = 19.25cm
Perimeter = 2r + 19.25cm
= (2 x 3.5) + 19.25
= 7 + 19.25
= 26.25cm

PERIMETER OF SEGMENT
The perimeter of a segment = length of arc + length of chord.
To find the length of chord AB, we bisect <AOB
Example 2:
The perimeter of a sector is 61.43cm. If the angle subtended by the sector at the centre is 1200. Find the radius of the sector.
Solution
Perimeter of a sector = Arc + 2r
61.43 = = θ/360 x 2πr + 2r
61.43 = = 120/360 x 2 x 22/7 x r + 2r
61.43 = = 1/3 x 2 x 22/7 x r + 2r
Multiply through by L.c.m = 21
21 x 61.43 = (211/3)x 2 x 22r)/ 3 x 7+ 2r)
1290.03 = 2 x 22r + 21 + 2r
1290.03 = 44r + 42r
1290.03 = 86r
86r = 1290.03
r = 1290.03/86
r = 15.00cm
https://youtu.be/3j8p1HW9GkI
Example 3
The perimeter of a sector is 61.43cm. If the radium of the sector is 15cm. Find the angle it subtends at the centre.
Solution
Perimeter of a sector = Arc + 2r
61.43 = θ/360 x 2 πr + 2r
61.43 = θ/360 x 2 x 22/7 x 15 + 2 x 15
61.43 = 11θ/(6 x 7) + 30
61.42 – 30 = 11θ/42
31.43/1 = 11θ/42
11θ = 42 x 31.43
θ = (42 x 31.43)/11
θ = 1200

Using trigonometric ratios
AD/r = Sin θ/2
AD = r Sin θ/2
But, AD = DB
Hence
AB chord AB = AD + DB
= r Sin θ/2 + r Sin θ/2
= 2r Sin θ/2 units
Length of Chord = 2r Sin θ/2units
Thus,
Perimeter of segment = θ/360 x 2πr + 2r Sin θ/2
= θ/180 x πr + 2r Sin θ/2
Example 3:
AB is a chord of a circle with centre o and radius 4cm, AOB = 1200. Calculate the perimeter of the minor segment (π = 22/7).
Solution

Chord AB = rSinθ/2, r = 4cm, θ = 1200.
θ/2 = 120/2 = 600.
So chord AB = 2 x 4 Sin 600
= 8 x sin 600
= 8 x(√3)/2
= 4√3cm
= 6.92cm
Length of arc AB = 120/360 x 2 x 4 x 22/7
= 1/3 x 8 x 22/7
= 176/21
= 8.38cm (2 d.p)

= 27 x 3.142 x 0.4 x 0.8

Area of sector = 27.15cm2 (decimal places)
Example 2:
AB is an arc of a circle of length 9.2cm with centre 0 and the radius is 4.6cm. Find the area of the sector AOB.
Solution
Length of arc AB = θ/360 x 2πr
r = 4.6cm, length of arc = 9.2cm
Length of arc AB = θ/360 x 2 x π x 4.6
9.2 = θ/360 x 2 x π x 4.6
9.2 x 360 = θ x 2 x π x 4.6
θ = (9.2 x 360)/(2 π x 4.6)

Relation between the sector of a circle and the surface area of a cone.
If a sector of a circle AOB is cut and folded into a come as shown in the diagram below.

The arc AB becomes the circumference of the base of the cone. The radius R becomes the slant edge l of the cone.
∴ Arc AB = 2πr
https://youtu.be/S8GB1RwMBps
Surface area of cone
From the above diagram.
The area of the sector = area of the curved surface of the cone
Length of arc AB = circumference of the circular base of the cone
Curved surface area of cone = θ/3600 x πl2
Also, θ/3600 x 2πl= 2πr
θ/3600 = r/l
Curved surface area of cone = r/l x πl2 =
Total surface area of cone = πrl + πr2
= πr(l + r).
Example 1: Calculate in terms of π, the total surface area of a cone of base diameter 12cm and height 10cm.
Solution

Using Pythagoras rule,
l2 = 102 + 62
l2 = 100 + 36
= 136
l= √136
Total surface area
= πrl + πr2
= πr(l + r).
= 6π(√136 + 6)cm2.

2. A 2160 sector of a circle of radius 5cm is bent to form a cone. Find the radius of the base of the cone and its vertical angle.
Solution

Radius = r
Vertical angle = 2α
Circumference of base of cone = length of arc of sector
Substituting values
216/3600 x 2π x 5= 2πr
r = 216/3600 x 2π x 5 x 1/2π
r = 216/72 = 3
∴ r = 3
Sin α = 3/5 = 0.6000
α = 36.870
2α = 36.870 x 2
= 73.740
Radius of base = 3cm
Vertical angle = 73.70 (to 0.10)

CUBE: since a cube is solid with six faces
Area of one face is a x a = a2.
Total area = a x a x 6 = 6a2.
Surface Area = 6a2 units
Example 1:
What is the surface area of a cube of edges 12cm.

CUBOIDS
Surface area of a cuboids = 2(lb + bh + lh)
Example: Given a cuboid of edges 3cm, 5cm, 8cm. calculate the surface area.
Solution
Surface area of a cuboids = 2(lb + bh + lh)

CYLINDER
Area of cylinder with one end closed = 2πrh + πr2
= πr(2h + r)
https://youtu.be/7mdSmvvOmF4
If two ends are closed.
Area = 2πrh + 2πr2
= 2πr(h + r), where r = radius of cylinder, h = height of cylinder
Example:
Find the surface area of a cylinder with height 14cm and base radius of 7cm consider all the three cases namely;
Open ended cylinder
One end open cylinder
Both ends closed cylinder
Solution
Open ended cylinder
Area = 2πrh
r = 7cm, h = 14cm
A = 2 x 22/2 x 7 x 14
= 44 x 14
= 616cm2
Open end open cylinder
Area = 2πrh + πr2
= (616 + 22/2 x 72 )cm2
= (616 + 154)cm2
= 770cm2.
https://youtu.be/PhA-7AE6MIU
Both ends closed cylinder
Area = 2πr(h + r)

PYRAMIDS: the total surface area of a pyramid is found by summing up areas of the common shapes that make up the pyramid.
Example 3:
Find the total surface area of a right pyramid with a rectangular base 6cm by 10cm, a height of 8.3cm and a slant edge of 10.14cm.

Solution
The total surface area is the sum of the surface areas of the five faces:
ABCD, VAB, VDC, and VAD
ABCD is a rectangle so AB = DC and AD = BC
If AB = 10cm, then DC = AB = 10cm
If AD = 6cm, then BC = AD = 6cm
Hence, area of ABCD = 10 x 6 = 60cm2
Area of ∆VAB = Area of ∆VDU and ∆VBC = Area of ∆VAD

Area of ∆VAB = 1/2 x AB x VP
By using Pythagoras rule
VP2 = VB2 – PB2
= (10.14)2 - 52
= 102.8 – 25
= 77.8
VP = √77.8 = 8.82cm
Area of ∆VAB = 1/2 x AB x VP
= 1/2 x 10 x 8.82
= 5 x 8.82
= 41.10cm2
Area of ∆VDU
Area of ∆VBC = 1/2 x AB x VF
But VF2 = VC2 – FC2
= (10.14)2 – 32
= 102.8 – 9
= 93.8
VF = √93.8 = 9.69cm
Area of ∆VBC = 1/2 x BC x VF
= 1/2 x 6 x 9.69
= 3 x 9.69
= 29.07cm2
Area of∆VAD

Area of rectangular base ABCD = 10 x 6 = 60cm2.
Total surface area of the pyramid = [(41.10 + 41.10 + 29.07 + 29.07 + 60)]

TOTAL SURFACE AREA OF FRUSTUM OF CONE AND PYRAMIDS
A frustum is the remaining part of cone or pyramid when the top part is cut off as shown below. Daily examples of frustums are buckets lamps shades etc

Frustum of a cone

In surface area of the frustrum of a pyramid, we sum up all areas of the surfaces that make up the frustum.
For frustum of a cone.
Total surface area of a closed frustum = π(height x sum of radii) + area of top and base circles.
https://youtu.be/uhLrZvzKV9o
Example 1:
Find the total surface area of a bucket 36cm in diameter at the top and 24cm at the bottom.
The depth of the bucket is 30cm.
Solution
The total surface area of bucket = sum of curved part + area of bottom circle
= π x height x (sum of radii) + area of bottom
= π x 30 x (18 + 12) + π122
= π x 30 x 30 + π(144)

SURFACE AREA OF FRUSTRUM OF PYRAMIDS
Example:
A frustum of a pyramid consists of a square base of length 10cm and a top square of length 7cm height of the frustum is 6cm. Calculate to the nearest whole number in the surface area.
Solution

Diagonals of the top and bottom
IPRI2 = IPQI2 + IQRI2
= 102 + 102
= 100 + 100
= 200
IPRI = √200
= 14.14
IYRI = 14.14/2
= 7.07cm
= 7.1cm
Diagonal AC
IACI2 = IABI2 + IBCI2
= 72 + 72
= 49 + 49
= 98
IACI2 = √98
= 9.89
BUT CX = 9.89/2
= 4.945
= 4.95cm

To calculate the height of the added pyramid.
Let the heights of the added pyramid be h by similar ∆
h/4.95 = (h+6)/7.07
7.07h = 4.95h + 29.7
7.07h – 4.95h = 29.7
2.12h = 29.7
= 29.7/2.12
= 14cm
∴height of bigger pyramid
= 13.8 + 6cm
= 19.8cm
To calculate the slant side of the smaller and bigger ∆s
Bigger ∆
IVRI2 = 7.12 + 19.82
= 50.41 + 392.04
= 442.45
∴IVRI2 = √442.45
= 21.04
= 21cm
https://youtu.be/jHQhs9SfZM4
Smaller ∆:

= 4.95 + 13.82

To find the surface area of frustum of pyramids using Hero’s formula for finding the area of the triangular face.
S = √((s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))
Where s = 1/2(a + b + c) and a, b and c are sides of the triangle
s = 1/2(21+ 21 + 10)
= 1/2 x 52
= 26
Area of a ∆face of big pyramid = √((s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))
S = √((26(26-21)(26-21)(26-10))
= √((26(5)(5)(16))
= √10400
= 101.98
= 102

Area of 4 ∆faces of the pyramid
= 4 x 101.98cm2
= 407.92cm2
= 408cm2
Area of 4 ∆faces of the small pyramid

A pyramid is on a square base of 25m side and 25m high. The top of the pyramids 10m high was cut off. Find the surface area of the four sides of the frustum formed.
VOLUME OF FRUSTUM OF CONE AND PYRAMIDS
Volume of frustum = volume of the full cone/pyramid – volume of teh part cut off.
Example:
A square cone 24cm high and of 18cm diameter at its base is cut off at half of its height. Calculate the volume of the remaining frustum. Leave π in your answer.
Solution

Volume of original cone = 1/3πr2h
= 1/3π x 92 x 24
= 1/3π x 81 x 24
= 27 π(24)
To find the radius r of the base of the cut off part, we use similarity of ∆s = 12/r = 24/9
r = (12 x 9)/24 = 9/2 = 41/2cm
Volume of small cone = 1/3π(9/2)2 x 12
= 81π
Hence volume of frustum (i) – (ii)
= 27 x 24π - 81π
= (81 x 8) π - 81π
= 81π(8 - 1)
= 567 πcm3
Example 2:
Find the volume of the frustum of a pyramid with 30cm square top and 50cm square base and height 20cm.Solution

If x is the height of the cut – off part and 15cm is half the side of its square base,
Then
x/(x+20) = 15/25
i.e 25x = 300 + 15x
10x = 300
x = 30.
Volume of entire pyramid
= 1/3(base x height)
= 1/3(base x height)
= 1/3(50 x 50) x (20 + 60)
= 1/3(2500 x 80)
= 1/3(200,000)cm3
But volume of top pyramid
= 1/3(base x height)
= 1/3(30 x 30 x 60)
= 1/3(900 x 60)
= 1/3(54,000)cm3
Volume of frustum = 1/3(200,000 – 54,000)
= 1/3(146,000)cm3
=48666 2/3cm3

Surface area of a Hut
A hut has:
The curved surface of cone
The curved surface of cylinder
The circular base of cylinder
Total surface area of a hut = 2πrh + πrl + π r2
= πr(2h + l + r)
Example 2:
A machine part is made up of a cylinder and a cone on each end, the dimension of which are shown below. Calculate the total surface area of the machine.

Solution
Surface area of 1st cone = πrl
By Pythagoras rule.
L2 = (62 + 42)cm2
= (36 + 16)cm2
= 52cm
l = √52
the surface area of the come
= π x 4cm x √52cm
= 4π√52cm2
Surface area of 2nd cone = πrl
l2 = 92 + 42
= 81 + 16
= 97cm
L = √97cm2
Area = 4π√97cm2
Therefore total surface area of the machine = surface area of cylinder + surface area of 1st cone + surface area of 2nd
= 64πcm2 + 4π√52cm2 + 4π√97cm2
= 4π(16+ √52+ √97)cm2

TOTAL SURFACE AREA OF FRUSTUM OF CONE AND PYRAMIDS
A frustum is the remaining part of cone or pyramid when the top part is cut off as shown below. Daily examples of frustums are buckets lamps shades etc

Frustum of a cone

In surface area of the frustrum of a pyramid, we sum up all areas of the surfaces that make up the frustum.
For frustum of a cone.
Total surface area of a closed frustum = π(height x sum of radii) + area of top and base circles.
https://youtu.be/uhLrZvzKV9o
Example 1:
Find the total surface area of a bucket 36cm in diameter at the top and 24cm at the bottom.
The depth of the bucket is 30cm.
Solution
The total surface area of bucket = sum of curved part + area of bottom circle
= π x height x (sum of radii) + area of bottom
= π x 30 x (18 + 12) + π122
= π x 30 x 30 + π(144)
= 900π + 144π
= 1044π2

Example 2:
Find in cm2, the area of material required for a lamp shade in the form of a frustum of a cone of which the top and bottom diameters are 20cm and 30cm respectively and the vertical height is 12cm.
Solution

By Pythagoras’s theorem, y = 26 and z = 13

z2 = 122 + 52
= 144 + 25
= 169
Z = √169
= 13
Surface area of frustum
= π x 15 x 39 - π x 10 x 26cm2

A bucket is 12cm in diameter at the top 8cm in diameter at the bottom and 4cm deep. Calculate its volume in cm3 in terms π. (JAMB)
SURFACE AREA OF FRUSTRUM OF PYRAMIDS
Example:
A frustum of a pyramid consists of a square base of length 10cm and a top square of length 7cm height of the frustum is 6cm. Calculate to the nearest whole number in the surface area.
Solution

Diagonals of the top and bottom
IPRI2 = IPQI2 + IQRI2
= 102 + 102
= 100 + 100
= 200
IPRI = √200
= 14.14
IYRI = 14.14/2
= 7.07cm
= 7.1cm
Diagonal AC
IACI2 = IABI2 + IBCI2
= 72 + 72
= 49 + 49
= 98
IACI2 = √98
= 9.89
BUT CX = 9.89/2
= 4.945
= 4.95cm

To calculate the height of the added pyramid.
Let the heights of the added pyramid be h by similar ∆
h/4.95 = (h+6)/7.07
7.07h = 4.95h + 29.7
7.07h – 4.95h = 29.7
2.12h = 29.7
= 29.7/2.12
= 14cm
∴height of bigger pyramid
= 13.8 + 6cm
= 19.8cm
To calculate the slant side of the smaller and bigger ∆s
Bigger ∆
IVRI2 = 7.12 + 19.82
= 50.41 + 392.04
= 442.45
∴IVRI2 = √442.45
= 21.04
= 21cm
https://youtu.be/jHQhs9SfZM4
Smaller ∆:

= 4.95 + 13.82
= 24.50 + 190.44
= 214.94
IVCI = √214.94
= 14.66cm
= 14.7cm
To find the surface area of frustum of pyramids using Hero’s formula for finding the area of the triangular face.
S = √((s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))
Where s = 1/2(a + b + c) and a, b and c are sides of the triangle
s = 1/2(21+ 21 + 10)
= 1/2 x 52
= 26
Area of a ∆face of big pyramid = √((s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))
S = √((26(26-21)(26-21)(26-10))
= √((26(5)(5)(16))
= √10400
= 101.98
= 102

Area of 4 ∆faces of the pyramid
= 4 x 101.98cm2
= 407.92cm2
= 408cm2
Area of 4 ∆faces of the small pyramid
s = 1/2(a + b + c)
s = 1/2(14.7 + 14.7 + 7)
s = 1/2 x 36.4
= 18.2
Area of a face = √((s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))
= √((18.2(18.2-14.7)(18.2-14.7)(18.2-7))
= √((18.2(3.5)(3.5)(11.2))
= √2497.04
= 49.97cm2
Area of a 4face = 4 x 49.97
= 199.88
= 200cm2

Area of the base of the frustum = l x b
= 10 x 10
= 100cm2
Area of the top of the frustum = l x b

A pyramid is on a square base of 25m side and 25m high. The top of the pyramids 10m high was cut off. Find the surface area of the four sides of the frustum formed.
VOLUME OF FRUSTUM OF CONE AND PYRAMIDS
Volume of frustum = volume of the full cone/pyramid – volume of teh part cut off.
Example:
A square cone 24cm high and of 18cm diameter at its base is cut off at half of its height. Calculate the volume of the remaining frustum. Leave π in your answer.
Solution

Volume of original cone = 1/3πr2h
= 1/3π x 92 x 24
= 1/3π x 81 x 24
= 27 π(24)
To find the radius r of the base of the cut off part, we use similarity of ∆s = 12/r = 24/9
r = (12 x 9)/24 = 9/2 = 41/2cm
Volume of small cone = 1/3π(9/2)2 x 12
= 81π
Hence volume of frustum (i) – (ii)
= 27 x 24π - 81π
= (81 x 8) π - 81π
= 81π(8 - 1)
= 567 πcm3
Example 2:
Find the volume of the frustum of a pyramid with 30cm square top and 50cm square base and height 20cm.Solution

If x is the height of the cut – off part and 15cm is half the side of its square base,
Then
x/(x+20) = 15/25
i.e 25x = 300 + 15x
10x = 300
x = 30.
Volume of entire pyramid
= 1/3(base x height)
= 1/3(base x height)
= 1/3(50 x 50) x (20 + 60)
= 1/3(2500 x 80)
= 1/3(200,000)cm3
But volume of top pyramid
= 1/3(base x height)
= 1/3(30 x 30 x 60)
= 1/3(900 x 60)
= 1/3(54,000)cm3
Volume of frustum = 1/3(200,000 – 54,000)
= 1/3(146,000)cm3

Example 2:
A machine part is made up of a cylinder and a cone on each end, the dimension of which are shown below. Calculate the total surface area of the machine.

Solution
Surface area of 1st cone = πrl
By Pythagoras rule.
L2 = (62 + 42)cm2

l = √52
the surface area of the come

L = √97cm2
Area = 4π√97cm2
Therefore total surface area of the machine = surface area of cylinder + surface area of 1st cone + surface area of 2nd

Frequency distribution.
Statistics can be considered as a way or method used in the collection and organisation of data in order to interprets, predict and get other information required out of the data.
This data could be information about some people e.g..ages, weights, heights, examination scores, etc
https://youtu.be/T7KYO76DoOE
Collection of Data
Let us remind ourselves that there are two kinds of data namely:
(a) Discrete data (b) continuous data
Discrete data are those which are obtained by direct counting e.g numbers of persons born on a particular days of the week, month of the year, etc.
Continuous data are those which require measurement before counting e.g number of persons of some age, height, weight etc.
Activity 1
Collect and tabulate data on the days of the Week each member of the class was born.
Tabulation and Presentation of data.
For easy access to information, data are normally presented using frequency tables. This table marches each data with the number of times it appeared. The frequency table is prepared as follows:
1. Draw the columns
2. Represent the data given in the first column in ascending or descending order.
3. Represent each data with the use of a tally.
Raw data and frequency tables
When data is first collected and has not been organised in any way, it is called Raw Data. For example, in a game, a die was thrown several times. Below are the results of the scores.

Example 1:
The table below shows the expenditure of a Bachelor in a given month
Items | Expenditure N1000
Food | 10
Rent | 5
Bills | 3
Clothing | 2
Savings | 6
Miscellaneous | 4

Draw a pie chart to illustrate the information
Solution
First, we shall calculate the angle of sector for each item as follows.

Title: Pie chart showing the expenditure of Bachelor in a certain month.
Example 2:
In a certain school, the lesson periods for each week are as itemized below.
English 10, Mathematics 7, Biology 3, Statistics 4, Ibo 3, others 9.
Draw a pie chart to illustrate this information

Title : pie Chart showing the lesson periods for each week in a certain school.
Example 3:
The pie chart illustrates the amount of private time a student spends in a week studying various subjects. Find the value of k.
Solution
Since the total angles of all sectors in a given circle is 3600.
1050 + 750 + (2k)0+ k0 + (3k)0 = 3600
1050 + 750 + (6k)0=3600
1800 + 6k =3600
6k = 3600 -1800
6k = 1800
Divide through by 6
6k/6 = 1800/6
K = 300.
Example 4:
The pie chart represents the fruits on display in grocery shop. If there are too oranges on display. How many apples are there?
Solution
The only sector that has useful information is that of oranges.
Number of oranges = 60
Sector angle of orange = 360 – (60 + 100 + 120)
= 3600 – 2800
= 800.
But 60/(total fruits) x 360/1 = 800.
60/(T.f)x 360/1 = 800
21600/(total fruits) = 80/1
Cross multiplying
21600 = 80(total fruit)
Dividing both sides by 80
21600/80 = (80(total fruit))/80
= 270
∴ Total number of fruit is 270.
Let the number of apples be x, then;
x/270 x 360/1 = 1200
x= (120 x 270)/3600
= 900
Example 5:
The Pie chart below shows the distribution of students in a certain school into some major ethnic groups in Nigeria.

In its simplest form, what fraction of the students are Igbos?
What percentage of the students are Hausas?
What is the ratio of the Binis to Hausas in the school in its simplest terms.
Solution
The angle of the sector representing Igbos is 700.
= 70/360 of the students are Igbos.
= 70/360 = 7/36
The angle of sector for Hausa is x0 and this can be obtained using
1100 + x0 + 700 + 600 + 900 = 3600
3300 + x0 = 3600
x = 300.
Taking the percentage of the fraction, the students who are Hausas use
= 30/ 300 x 100/1
= 1/12 x 100/1
= 100/12
8.3%
The angle of sector for binis = 900
The angle of sector for Hausas= 300
ratio of Binis to Hausas 900 : 300
= 3 : 1
Example 6:
The Pie chart below shows the weekly sales of a motor dealer in Lagos in 1999.
What fraction of the cars were Toyota?
What percentages of the Cars were Datsun?
If the dealer sold 16 Peugeots, How many BMW did he sell in a week?
Solution
The angle of the sector representing Toyota is 1200.
= 120/ 360
= 12/36
= 1/3
Taking the percentage of the fraction of the Datsun Cars
= 90/ 360 x 100/1
= 1/4 x 100/1
= 25%
To get the total number of Cars, we will first get the angle of sector for Peugeot.
70 + 120 + 90 + x + 360
280 + x = 360
X = 360 – 280
x = 800
Assuming the total number of Cars to be y, then
16/y x 360/1 = 800
5760/y = 80/1
Cross multiplying
5760 = 80y
Divide both sides by 80
5760/80 = 80y/80
y = 720.
To get the number of BMW sold in a week, let the number of the BMW sold be m
m/72 x 360/1 = 700
360m/72 = 70
Cross multiplying
360m = 5040
Dividing both sides by 360
360m/360 = 5040/360
m = 14

Frequency polygon
The frequency polygon is obtained by joining the midpoints of the tops of the histogram rectangles with straight lines. Since the polygon is a closed figure, we take one interval below the lowest internal on the base axis. Then we join the ends of the polygon to the midpoints of the new intervals as shown below.

Solution
First, we shall calculate the angle of sector for each item as follows.

Title: Pie chart showing the expenditure of Bachelor in a certain month.
Example 2:
In a certain school, the lesson periods for each week are as itemized below.
English 10, Mathematics 7, Biology 3, Statistics 4, Ibo 3, others 9.
Draw a pie chart to illustrate this information

Title : pie Chart showing the lesson periods for each week in a certain school.
Example 3:
The pie chart illustrates the amount of private time a student spends in a week studying various subjects. Find the value of k.
Solution
Since the total angles of all sectors in a given circle is 3600.
1050 + 750 + (2k)0+ k0 + (3k)0 = 3600
1050 + 750 + (6k)0=3600
1800 + 6k =3600
6k = 3600 -1800
6k = 1800
Divide through by 6
6k/6 = 1800/6
K = 300.
Example 4:
The pie chart represents the fruits on display in grocery shop. If there are too oranges on display. How many apples are there?
Solution
The only sector that has useful information is that of oranges.
Number of oranges = 60
Sector angle of orange = 360 – (60 + 100 + 120)
= 3600 – 2800
= 800.
But 60/(total fruits) x 360/1 = 800.
60/(T.f)x 360/1 = 800
21600/(total fruits) = 80/1
Cross multiplying
21600 = 80(total fruit)
Dividing both sides by 80
21600/80 = (80(total fruit))/80
= 270
∴ Total number of fruit is 270.
Let the number of apples be x, then;
x/270 x 360/1 = 1200
x= (120 x 270)/3600
= 900
Example 5:
The Pie chart below shows the distribution of students in a certain school into some major ethnic groups in Nigeria.

In its simplest form, what fraction of the students are Igbos?
What percentage of the students are Hausas?
What is the ratio of the Binis to Hausas in the school in its simplest terms.
Solution
The angle of the sector representing Igbos is 700.
= 70/360 of the students are Igbos.
= 70/360 = 7/36
The angle of sector for Hausa is x0 and this can be obtained using
1100 + x0 + 700 + 600 + 900 = 3600
3300 + x0 = 3600
x = 300.
Taking the percentage of the fraction, the students who are Hausas use
= 30/ 300 x 100/1
= 1/12 x 100/1
= 100/12
8.3%
The angle of sector for binis = 900
The angle of sector for Hausas= 300
ratio of Binis to Hausas 900 : 300
= 3 : 1
Example 6:
The Pie chart below shows the weekly sales of a motor dealer in Lagos in 1999.
What fraction of the cars were Toyota?
What percentages of the Cars were Datsun?
If the dealer sold 16 Peugeots, How many BMW did he sell in a week?
Solution
The angle of the sector representing Toyota is 1200.
= 120/ 360
= 12/36
= 1/3
Taking the percentage of the fraction of the Datsun Cars
= 90/ 360 x 100/1
= 1/4 x 100/1
= 25%
To get the total number of Cars, we will first get the angle of sector for Peugeot.
70 + 120 + 90 + x + 360
280 + x = 360
X = 360 – 280
x = 800
Assuming the total number of Cars to be y, then
16/y x 360/1 = 800
5760/y = 80/1
Cross multiplying
5760 = 80y
Divide both sides by 80
5760/80 = 80y/80
y = 720.
To get the number of BMW sold in a week, let the number of the BMW sold be m
m/72 x 360/1 = 700
360m/72 = 70
Cross multiplying
360m = 5040
Dividing both sides by 360
360m/360 = 5040/360
m = 14
