Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Calculate the length of the space diagonal of a rectangular box with length 8 cm, width 6 cm, and height 5 cm.
[3 marks]
2.
A square-based pyramid has a base edge of 6 cm and a vertical height of 9 cm. Calculate the slant height of the pyramid.
[4 marks]
3.
Construct a right-angled triangle on the grid with legs of 5 cm and 12 cm. Find the hypotenuse length.
[2 marks]
4.
Using Pythagoras' theorem, find the space diagonal of a cube with side length 10 cm.
[3 marks]
5.
A cylindrical tank has a radius of 4 m and height of 10 m. Calculate the length of the diagonal from the top edge of the cylinder to a point directly below on the base.
[3 marks]
6.
A rectangular prism measures 12 cm by 9 cm by 15 cm. Find the length of its space diagonal.
[3 marks]
7.
A cube has a volume of 343 cm³. Calculate the length of its space diagonal.
[4 marks]
8.
A rectangular box has dimensions 10 cm, 14 cm, and 24 cm. Find the length of the space diagonal using Pythagoras' theorem.
[4 marks]
9.
A prism with a square base of side 6 cm and height 10 cm is shown. Calculate the length of the space diagonal of the prism.
[3 marks]
10.
Identify and correct the mistake in this calculation: The space diagonal of a cuboid with sides 8 cm, 15 cm, and 17 cm is calculated as √(8² + 15² + 17²) = √(64 + 225 + 289) = √578 ≈ 24.04 cm.
