[Maths Class Notes] on Hexagonal Pyramid Formula Pdf for Exam

The lateral faces (triangles) of a pyramid meet at a common point known as the vertex. A pyramid’s name is derived from the name of the polygon that defines its base. A square pyramid, a rectangular pyramid, a triangular pyramid, a pentagonal pyramid, a hexagonal pyramid, and so on are examples of pyramids.

Let’s discuss the hexagonal pyramid in details,

A hexagonal pyramid is a pyramid with a hexagonal base and six isosceles triangular faces that intersect at a point in geometry (the apex). It is self-dual, just like any other pyramid. C6v symmetry is found in a right hexagonal pyramid with a regular hexagon base. A right regular pyramid has a regular polygon as its base and an apex that is “above” the centre of the base, creating a right triangle with the apex, the centre of the base, and every other vertex. It is also known as Heptahydron.

Hexagonal Pyramid Formula

A  pyramid with a hexagonal base. The edge length of a hexagonal pyramid of height (h) is a special case of the formula for a regular n-gonal pyramid with n = 6.

The formula of the base area of a hexagonal pyramid is,

b = 3 x a x b

where a is the length of a side of the base. The hexagon volume formula is,

V = a x b x h

and the hexagonal surface area formula is,

S = (3 x a x b) + (3 x b x s)

Where,

a is apothem length of the pyramid.

b is the base length of the pyramid.

s is the slant height of the pyramid.

h is the height of the pyramid.

Examples for Hexagonal Pyramid

Ex.1.  Find The Base Area, The Surface Area of Hexagon And Volume of A Hexagonal Pyramid of Apothem Length 3 Cm, Base Length 6 Cm, Height 8 Cm And Slant Height 14 Cm?

Answer: 

Given,

a = 3 cm

b = 6 cm

h = 8 cm

s = 14 cm

Base area of a hexagonal pyramid

b = 3 x a x b

= 3 × 3 cm × 6 cm

= 54 cm2

Surface area of hexagon pyramid

S = (3 x a x b) + (3 x b x s)

= (3 × 3 cm × 6 cm) + (3 × 6 cm × 14 cm)

= 54 cm2 + 252 cm2

= 304 cm2

Hexagon volume formula is,

V = a x b x h

= 3 cm × 6 cm × 8 cm

= 144 cm3

Hence, the Base area of a hexagonal pyramid is 54 cm2

The  surface area of hexagon pyramid is 304 cm2

The volume of a hexagonal pyramid is 144 cm3

Ex.2. Find The Height of A Hexagonal Pyramid When The Volume (V) of A Pyramid is 169 cm3, the base (b) length of the pyramid is 9cm and the apothem (a) length of the pyramid is 7cm?

Answer: 

Given,

a = 7 cm

b = 9 cm

h = ? 

V = 169 cm3

Now, use the volume formula to find the height of a hexagonal pyramid.

V = a x b x h

169 = 7 x 9 x h

Hence,

h = 169/63

h = 2.68 cm 

The height of a hexagonal pyramid is 2.68cm.

[Maths Class Notes] on Table of 19 – Multiplication Table of 19 Pdf for Exam

Multiplication is nothing but the process of repetitive addition. 

For example,

  • 2 times 19 is 39 which is equal to 19 + 19.

  • Similarly, when we add 19 five times, the result will be 95, i.e., 19+19+19+19+19.

  • Also, the number 19 is a prime number which is only divisible by 1 and the number itself. 

Tips and Tricks to Memorise Table of 19

Though reading a table aloud is the best way to learn any table. But, as we promise, here are some tricks to remember the table easily. 

Trick 1: Odd numbers and reversing method

Step 1: Write the odd numbers from 1-19 in the following manner:

 

Step 2: Next, we will write the numbers from 0 to 9 from bottom to top beside the numbers written in step 1:

19

38

57

76

95

114

133

152

171

190

 

So, this is our 19th table.

We have many other ways to write tables of 19, so let us try those:

Trick 2: Addition and Subtraction Method

Method 1: Addition: From table 17 and 18

Table of 17

Add the first 10 multiples of 2 one-by-one in each

Table of 18

Add first 10 natural numbers one-by-one

In both ways, we get the 19 times table

17  x  1  =  17

17  +  2

18  x  1  =  18

18  +  1

19

17  x  2  =  34

34  +  4

18  x  2  =  36

36  +  2

38

17  x  3  =  51

51  +  6

18  x  3  =  54

54  +  3

57

17  x  4  =  68

68  +  8

18  x  4  =  72

72  +  4

76

17  x  5  =  85

85  +  10

18  x  5  =  90

90  +  5

95

17  x  6  =  102

102  +  12

18  x  6  =  108

108  +  6

114

17  x  7  =  119

119  +  14

18  x  7  =  126

126  +  7

133

17  x  8   =  136

136  +  16

18  x  8  =  144

144  +  8

152

17  x  9  =  153

153  +  18

18  x  9  =  162

162  +  9

171

17  x  10  =  170

170  +  20

18  x  10  =  180

180  +  10

190

 

Method 2: Subtraction: From 20 Times Table

Table 20

Subtract the first 10 natural numbers one-by-one

So we obtain our 19 times table

20 x 1 = 20

20 – 1

19

20 x 2 = 40

40 – 2

38

20 x 3 = 60

60 – 3

57

20 x 4 = 80

80 – 4

76

20 x 5 = 100

100 – 5

95

20 x 6 = 120

120 – 6

114

20 x 7 = 140

140 – 7

133

20 x 8 = 160

160 – 8

152

20 x 9 = 180

180 – 9

171

20 x 10 = 200

200 – 10

190

How to Solve Questions Based on Table 19?

In this section, we are going to solve a few questions that can appear in the form of word problems and multiple choice.

Word Problems Based on Table 19 with Practice Questions

Example 1: Evaluate using 19 times table: 19 times 8 times 9

[Maths Class Notes] on 1 Billion in Rupees Pdf for Exam

In rupees, one billion equals 10,000 lakhs. 1,000,000,000 is a natural number that equals one billion. The number 999,999,999 comes before 1 billion, and 1,000,000,001 comes after it. The concept of place value is used in mathematics to describe quantities. There are two ways to interpret the place value of the digits in a number. The Indian System and the International System are the two. The place value charts are used to determine the number’s positional values. With the support of positions, numbers in the general form can be extended.

 

The place value is ordered from right to left. Starting with the unit location (one’s place), the place value progresses to tens, hundreds, thousands, and so on. Let us look at the value of 1 billion in rupees of the Indian scheme of place value and 1 billion dollars in rupees in words. We’ll also look at the position value chart for both the Indian and International systems.

Overview of the Topic

The place value is ordered from right to left. Starting with the unit location (one’s place), the place value progresses to tens, hundreds, thousands, and so on. Let us look at the value of 1 billion in rupees of the Indian scheme of place value and 1 billion dollars in rupees in words. We’ll also look at the position value chart for both the Indian and International systems.

Students get scared by seeing big numbers but nothing to get scared of. It is important that students must understand how to identify big numbers. They must have proper knowledge and information about the rules for identifying big numbers. There are different ways to identify the numbers. Mainly, students are taught about two different systems of place value. One is the Indian system of place value and the other is the International System of place value. It is important that students must have knowledge of both the Indian and the International System of place values to identify big numbers easily. Students must know how to convert international numbers in the Indian system. The names given to different numbers in the Indian and international system are different and students must know this concept for excelling in higher classes. 

1 Billion is a big number and it is equal to 10,000 lakhs in Indian money.  One billion can be written as 1,000,000,000. Students can remember this by counting the zeroes. There are nine zeros in one billion. Similarly, if students want to remember other big numbers they can count the zeroes. For example, one million will have six zeros and it is written as 1000,000. Thus, in a similar manner students can remember other big numbers. 

One Billion in Rupees

Consider 1 dollar = 73.80 rupees

 

Value of 1 billion = 1,000,000,000 rupees

 

So 1 billion dollars in rupees = 73.80 x 1,000,000,000 =7.38 x 101010

 

Similarly

 

5 billion dollars in rupees =73.80 x 5,000,000,000 = 369 x 101111

1 Billion in Indian Rupees

The International System uses billions based on position value charts. The equivalent value of  1 billion in Indian rupees (according to the Indian System) is

 

1 billion in rupees = 1,000,000,000 Rupees

 

We can write it as:

 

1 Billion = 10,000 Lakhs (As we know 1 lakh = 1,00,000)

 

As a result, a billion in lakhs equals 10,000 lakhs. It means that one billion lakhs equals ten million lakhs.

 

In other words, 1 billion equals 100 crores (as 1 lakh equals 1,00,00,000).

Conversion from Billion to Lakhs

Multiply the given billion value by ten thousand lakhs to convert the given billion value to lakhs (10,000 Lakhs)

 

Multiply 7 by 10,000 lakhs, for example, to convert 7 billion to lakhs.

 

(i.e.,) 7 Billion = 7 x 10,000 lakhs

 

70,000 lakhs = 7 billion

 

As a result, 7 billion equals 70,000 lakhs.

 

1 billion dollar to inr is 73,80,00,50,000

Conversion from Billion to Crores

Multiply the given billion value by 100 crores to convert the given billion value to crores.

 

To convert 9 billion to crores, multiply 9 by 100 crores, as an example.

 

(To put it another way,) 9 billion is equal to 9 x 100 crores.

 

900 crores = 9 billion dollars

 

As a result, 9 billion equals 900 crores.

 

Similarly, any billion value can be converted to values in the Indian numbering system, such as lakhs, crores, and so on.

How Many Zeros in a Billion?

There are nine (9) zeros in a billion. 

 

1 billion = 1,000,000,000
 

How Many Millions is a Billion?

1 million = 1000,000

 

One million is equal to 1000 thousand.

 

1 billion = 1000 million = 1000,000,000

 

Therefore, one billion is equal to 1000 million.

The following is the protocol for using the billion to rupees conversion calculator:

Step 1: In the input region, type the number of billions.

 

Step 2: To get the conversion value, press the “Convert” button.

 

Step 3: Finally, in the output sector, the value of the conversion from billions to rupees will be shown.

What Does Billion to Rupees Conversion Mean?

In the Indian and International (more precisely the US) numeral systems, the place value of digits is referred to in various ways. Digits in the Indian system have place values of Ones, Tens, Hundreds, Thousands, Ten Thousand, Lakhs, Ten Lakhs, Crores, and so on. The position values of digits in the International system are in the order Ones, Tens, Hundreds, Thousands, Ten Thousand, Hundred Thousands, Millions, Billions, and so on. As a result, 1 billion is converted to 100 crores in the conversion from billions to rupees.

 

1 billion rupees = 1,000,000,000 rupees

 

Since 1 lakh equals Rs. 100000, 1 billion equals 10,000 lakhs.

 

100 Crores = 1 Billion

Solved Examples

1. What is the Rupee Equivalent of 5 Billion? 

Solution: We know that a billion rupees equal 1,000,000,000 rupees.

 

As a result, the rupee value of 5 billion is estimated as follows:

 

5 Billion = 5 x 1,000,000,000

 

5 Billion = 5,000,000,000 rupees

 

We may also assume that 5 billion equals 500 crores.

 

2. In Crores, What is the Worth of 4.6 Billion?

Solution: We know that

 

1 Billion = 100 crores

 

Therefore, 4.6 Billion = 4.6 x 100 crores

 

4.6 Billion = 460 crores

 

Hence, the value of 4.6 billion is 460 crores.

Overview of Place Value

Place value is an important concept in mathematics. It helps to determine the position of a digit in the given number. Each digit in a number has a position. A number can be expanded depending on the position of different digits. We count the place value of digits from right to left. The position will start from the unit’s place and move on to tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousand, etc.

The place value of every digit in a given number is different. A number may have two same digits but both digits in the number will have a different position or place value. For example, 5456 in this number 5 will have a different place value. The number on the right will have a place value of tens and the number on the left will have a place value of ten thousand.

Solved Examples

1. What is 3 billion equal to the Indian rupee?

You know that one billion is equal to 1,000,000,000 rupees.

Thus, the value of 3 billion can be calculated as follows:

3 Billion = 3 x 1, 000,000,000

3 Billion = 3,000,000, 000 rupees.

We can also say that 3 million is equal to 300 crores.

Convert 4 billion to lakhs

We know that one Billion is equal to = 10,000 lakhs

Thus the value of 4 billion can be calculated as follows

1 billion = 10,000 lakhs

4 billion = 4 x 10,000

4 billion = 40,000 lakhs

Thus, we can say that the value of 4 billion is 40,000 lakhs

A fraction can be defined as a part of a whole number which can be represented numerically.

For example:

Bheem drank two and a half glass of milk i.e. 2 ½ and Indu drank one and a half glass of milk

i.e. 1 ½ .In this example, the half glass of milk is represented as a numerical quantity.

Introduction to Addition and Subtraction of Fraction

From the above example the question arises, what is the total amount of milk that they drank? In this case, the addition and subtraction of fractions take place to find the total quantity of an item. How do we add fraction? How to subtract fractions? What are the steps to add or subtract?  Let us learn about Addition and Subtraction of Fractions.

Methods for Adding and Subtracting Fractions

Unlike whole numbers adding and subtracting fraction is not easy it requires different methods for different types of fraction. The following methods will guide you through addition and subtraction of fractions.

  • Addition and subtraction of Like fraction

  • Addition and subtraction of unlike fraction

  • Addition and Subtraction of Mixed fraction

Addition and Subtraction of Like Fraction

The fractions which have the same denominators are known as Like fractions.  Additional and subtraction of like fraction is quite easy, as the denominator of the fractions are same.

Example 1:

1/4 + 2/4 =?

In the above example the denominator of the fraction is the same.

                1/4 =      2/4 = 

The above diagram gives the pictorial representation of the fractions. The circle is divided into 4 parts which is the denominator and the colored part represents the numerator.

Steps for Addition of Like Fractions:

Step1: check the denominators of the fraction, If the denominator is the same or not. 

Step2: If the denominators are the same, add the numerators of the fraction keeping the denominator as it is.

Step3: Solution 

         1/4 + 2/4 = 3/4 

Example 2:  6/8 – 2/8 =?

Steps for Subtraction of Like Fractions:

Step1: Check the denominators of the fraction, If the denominator is the same or not.

Step2: Subtract the smaller numerator with the larger one keeping the denominator as it is.

Step3: Solution

 6/8 – 2/8 = 4/8 

Addition and Subtraction of Unlike Fraction

The fractions which have the different denominators are known as unlike fractions. For addition and subtraction of fraction the denominators of the fraction should be the same. So we need to make them the same by taking LCM of the denominators.

Example 34/6 + 2/8 =?

Steps for Addition of Unlike Fractions:

Step 1: Take LCM of the denominators of the given fractions.In this example the LCM of  6 and 8 is 24.

(LCM is the least common multiple of two numbers)

Step 2: To get the same denominator 8 and 12 should be converted into 24 by multiplying the suitable multiple to both numerator and denominator.

For  4/6 ,  4/4  will be multiplied  4/6 x 4/4 = 16/24

For  2/8 ,  3/3  will be multiplied  2/8 x 3/3 = 6/24

Step 3: Now, the denominators of the two fractions are the same .Add the numerator keeping the denominator as it is.

 16/24 + 6/24 

Step 4: Solution

16/24 + 6/24 = 22/24

Example 4:  4/6 – 2/8 =?

Steps for Subtraction of Unlike Fractions:

Step 1: Take LCM of the denominators of the given fractions. In this example the LCM of  6 and 8 is 24.

(LCM is the least common multiple of two numbers)

Step 2: To get the same denominator 8 and 12 should be converted into 24 by multiplying the suitable multiple to both numerator and denominator.

For  4/6 ,  4/4  will be multiplied  4/6 x 4/4 = 16/24

For  2/8 ,  3/3  will be multiplied  2/8 x 3/3 = 6/24

Step 3: Now, the denominators of the two fraction are the same .Subtract the numerator keeping the denominator as it is.

 16/24 – 6/24 

Step 4: Solution

16/24 – 6/24 = 10/24

Addition and Subtraction of Mixed Fraction

A mixed fraction can be defined  as a combination of a whole number and a fraction combined into one mixed number.

For example :  2 1/4   is a mixed fraction

2 1/4    =

In the above diagram the whole number is represented by the circle which is completely colored and the fraction is represented by the circle which is partially colored.

There are two methods for the addition and subtraction of mixed fraction.

  1.  Addition and subtraction of like mixed fraction.

  2.  Addition and subtraction of unlike mixed fraction.
