All five faces of a regular pyramid with a square base are found to be of the same area. The height of the pyramid is 3 cm. The total area of all its surfaces (in cm2) is

Under the Indian Posts and Telegraph Act 1885, any package in the form of a right circular cylinder will not be accepted if the sum of its height and the diameter of its base exceeds 10 inches. The height (in inches) of a package of maximum volume that would be accepted is

A cuboid of length 20 m, breadth 15 m and height 12 m is lying on a table. The cuboid is cut into two equal halves by a plane which is perpendicular to the base and passes through a pair of diagonally opposite points of that surface. Then, a second cut is made by a plane which is parallel to the surface of the table again dividing the cuboid into two equal halves. Now this cuboid is divided into four pieces. Out of these four pieces, one piece is now removed from its place. What is the total surface area of the remaining portion of the cuboid?

Four spheres each of radius 10 cm lie on a horizontal table so that the centres of the spheres form a square of side 20 cm. A fifth sphere also of radius 10 cm is placed on them so that it touches each of these spheres without disturbing them. How many cm above the table is the centre of the fifth sphere?

The square of side 1 cm are cut from four comers of a sheet of tin (having length = 1 and breadth = b) in order to form an open box. If the whole sheet of tin was rolled along its length to form a cylinder, then the volume of the cylinder is equal to (343/4) cm³. Find the volume of the box. (1 and b are integers)

John Nash, an avid mathematician, had his room constructed such that the floor of the room was an equilateral triangle in shape instead of the usual rectangular shape. One day he brought home a bird and tied it to one end of a string and then tied the other end of the string to one of the corners of his room. The next day, he untied the other end of the string from the corner of the room and tied it to a point exactly at the center of the floor of the room. Assuming that the dimensions of the room are relatively large compared to the length of the string, find the number of times, by which the maximum possible space in which the bird can fly, increase.

The perimeter of a triangle is 28 cm and the inradius of the triangle is 2.5 cm. What is the area of the triangle?
