Question

A triangle ABC with sides 3 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm is revolved about the side 3 cm. Find the volume of the solid so obtained. (Use π = 3.14)

A.

55.61 cubic cm

B.

40.55 cubic cm

C.

42.62 cubic cm

D.

50.24 cubic cm

Correct option is D

Given
Triangle sides = 3 cm, 4 cm, 5 cm
Revolved about the side 3 cm
π=3.14\pi = 3.14​​
Formula Used
Volume of a cone = 13×π×r2×h\frac{1}{3} \times \pi \times r^2 \times h​​
Solution
Revolving a right-angled triangle about its altitude forms a cone.
Height of the cone, h = 3 cm
Radius of the base, r = 4 cm
Volume = 13×3.14×42×3\frac{1}{3} \times 3.14 \times 4^2 \times 3​​
Volume = 3.14×16=50.24 cubic cm3.14 \times 16 = 50.24\, \text{cubic cm}
Final Answer
So the correct answer is (d)
