Volume and surface area of 3D shapes worksheet for Grade 6 geometry practice.

Let’s solve each problem one by one. We’ll find both the volume and surface area for each 3D shape.

---

Problem 1: Cube (all sides = 3 in)

Volume of a cube = side × side × side
= 3 × 3 × 3 = 27 cubic inches

Surface area of a cube = 6 × (side × side)
= 6 × (3 × 3) = 6 × 9 = 54 square inches

✔ Check: All faces are same, 6 faces, each 9 in² → 54 in² ✔️

Problem 2: Triangular Prism

This prism has:
- A triangular base with base = 2 in, height = 2.5 in
- Length of prism (distance between triangles) = 8 in
- The two slanted sides of triangle are each 2.5 in? Wait — looking at diagram: it shows “2.5 in” on the slant, but also says “2.5 in” as height? Let me re-read.

Actually, from the diagram:

It looks like the triangular face is an isosceles triangle with:
- Base = 2 in
- Height = 2.5 in (perpendicular height)
- Two equal sides labeled 2.5 in? That can’t be right if base is 2 and height is 2.5 — let’s check using Pythagoras.

Wait — maybe the 2.5 in is the length of the slanted edge? But then we need to know the actual height.

Looking again: The diagram labels:
- One side of triangle: 2.5 in (slant)
- Another side: 2.5 in (other slant)
- Base: 2 in
- And there’s a perpendicular line inside labeled 2.5 in? That doesn’t make sense geometrically.

Wait — perhaps the 2.5 in marked vertically is the height of the triangle, and the 2.5 in on the side is just labeling the edge? But if base is 2, and height is 2.5, then the slant edges would be √(1² + 2.5²) = √(1 + 6.25) = √7.25 ≈ 2.69 — not 2.5.

Hmm — maybe the diagram means that the triangular face has:
- Base = 2 in
- Two equal sides = 2.5 in each → so it’s isosceles with legs 2.5, base 2.

Then we can compute the height of the triangle using Pythagoras:

Height h = √(2.5² - 1²) = √(6.25 - 1) = √5.25 ≈ 2.29 in — but diagram says 2.5 in? Confusing.

Wait — look again: In the diagram, it says “2.5 in” next to the vertical dashed line — that must be the height of the triangle. And the two slanted sides are also labeled 2.5 in? That would mean it’s equilateral? No, base is 2.

I think there might be a mislabeling, but since this is Grade 6, likely they intend:

Triangular face:
- Base = 2 in
- Height = 2.5 in (given as perpendicular height)
- So area of triangle = (1/2) × base × height = (1/2) × 2 × 2.5 = 2.5 in²

Now, volume of prism = area of base × length
Length of prism = 8 in (given)
→ Volume = 2.5 × 8 = 20 cubic inches

Now surface area:

The prism has:
- 2 triangular bases → 2 × 2.5 = 5 in²
- 3 rectangular faces:

Rectangles:
1. Bottom rectangle: base × length = 2 × 8 = 16 in²
2. Left rectangle: side × length — what’s the side? If the triangle has height 2.5 and base 2, then the other two sides are not given directly. But in diagram, it labels the slanted sides as 2.5 in? Maybe we’re supposed to take them as 2.5 in each.

Assume the two slanted sides of triangle are each 2.5 in (even though mathematically inconsistent with height 2.5 and base 2 — but for Grade 6, maybe they want us to use the labeled values).

So rectangles:
- Two side rectangles: each 2.5 in (side) × 8 in (length) = 20 in² each → total 40 in²
- Bottom rectangle: 2 × 8 = 16 in²

Total surface area = 2 triangles + 3 rectangles = 5 + 16 + 40 = 61 in²

But wait — if the triangle has base 2 and two sides 2.5, then the height should be √(2.5² - 1²) = √5.25 ≈ 2.29, not 2.5. But diagram says 2.5 for height. This is conflicting.

Alternative interpretation: Perhaps the “2.5 in” labeled on the side is NOT the side length, but something else? Or maybe it’s a typo.

Given this is Grade 6, and to avoid confusion, I’ll go with the most straightforward reading:

They give:
- Triangle base = 2 in
- Triangle height = 2.5 in (perpendicular)
- Prism length = 8 in
- And they label the slanted edges as 2.5 in — perhaps meaning those are the lengths to use for the rectangles.

So even if geometrically inconsistent, for calculation purposes:

Area of triangle = 0.5 * 2 * 2.5 = 2.5 in² → volume = 2.5 * 8 = 20 in³

Surface area:
- 2 triangles: 5 in²
- Rectangle 1 (base): 2 * 8 = 16 in²
- Rectangle 2 (left side): 2.5 * 8 = 20 in²
- Rectangle 3 (right side): 2.5 * 8 = 20 in²
Total SA = 5 + 16 + 20 + 20 = 61 in²

I think that’s what they expect.

Problem 3: Cylinder

Given:
- Diameter = 7 in → radius r = 3.5 in
- Height h = 6 in

Volume of cylinder = π × r² × h
= π × (3.5)² × 6
= π × 12.25 × 6
= π × 73.5
≈ 3.14 × 73.5 = let's calculate:

3.14 × 70 = 219.8
3.14 × 3.5 = 10.99
Total ≈ 219.8 + 10.99 = 230.79 cubic inches

We can leave as 73.5π or approximate. Since it’s Grade 6, probably use π ≈ 3.14.

Surface area of cylinder = 2πr² + 2πrh
= 2πr(r + h)
= 2 × π × 3.5 × (3.5 + 6)
= 2 × π × 3.5 × 9.5
First, 3.5 × 9.5 = 33.25
Then 2 × 33.25 = 66.5
So SA = 66.5 × π ≈ 66.5 × 3.14

Calculate:
66.5 × 3 = 199.5
66.5 × 0.14 = 9.31
Total ≈ 199.5 + 9.31 = 208.81 square inches

Alternatively, step by step:

2πr² = 2 × 3.14 × (3.5)^2 = 2 × 3.14 × 12.25 = 6.28 × 12.25

6.28 × 12 = 75.36
6.28 × 0.25 = 1.57
Total = 76.93

2πrh = 2 × 3.14 × 3.5 × 6 = 6.28 × 21 = 131.88

Total SA = 76.93 + 131.88 = 208.81 in² ✔️

Problem 4: Right Triangular Prism (with right angle)

From diagram:
- It’s a prism with a right triangle base.
- Legs of triangle: 7 in and 7 in? Wait — no.

Diagram shows:
- One leg horizontal: 7 in
- Other leg vertical: 7 in? But it says “7 in” on the vertical side, and “8 in” on the depth? Wait.

Actually, looking:

The triangular face is a right triangle with:
- Base = 7 in
- Height = 7 in? But there’s a label “7 in” on the vertical side, and “8 in” going back.

Wait — the prism extends 8 in in depth.

And the triangular face has:
- One leg = 7 in (horizontal)
- Other leg = ? The vertical side is labeled 7 in, but there’s also a hypotenuse labeled 8.5 in.

Check: If legs are 7 and 7, hypotenuse = √(49+49)=√98≈9.9 — not 8.5.

If legs are 7 and something else.

Diagram shows:
- Horizontal leg: 7 in
- Vertical leg: let’s call it h
- Hypotenuse: 8.5 in
- Depth of prism: 8 in

Also, there’s a right angle symbol at the corner.

So, using Pythagoras for the triangle:

a² + b² = c²
7² + b² = 8.5²
49 + b² = 72.25
b² = 72.25 - 49 = 23.25
b = √23.25 ≈ 4.82 in — but diagram labels the vertical side as 7 in? Contradiction.

Wait — perhaps the 7 in is not a leg? Let me read labels again.

In the diagram:
- On the front triangle: bottom side = 7 in, left side = 7 in? But then hypotenuse should be ~9.9, but it’s labeled 8.5 in.

Perhaps the 7 in on the left is not the height? Or maybe it’s a different configuration.

Another possibility: The triangular face has:
- Base = 7 in
- Height = ?
- But the prism depth is 8 in, and the slant edge is 8.5 in.

Wait — perhaps the 7 in labeled vertically is the height of the prism? No, that doesn't make sense.

Let me try to interpret based on standard problems.

Often in such diagrams, for a right triangular prism:

- The right triangle has legs a and b, hypotenuse c.
- The prism has length L (depth).

Here, likely:
- The triangular face is right-angled with legs 7 in and ? , hypotenuse 8.5 in.
- But 7² + x² = 8.5² → 49 + x² = 72.25 → x²=23.25 → x≈4.82 — not nice number.

But 7, 24, 25 is a triple, not here.

8.5 is 17/2, 7 is 14/2, so (14/2)^2 + b^2 = (17/2)^2 → 196/4 + b^2 = 289/4 → b^2 = 93/4 → b=√93 /2 ≈ 9.64/2=4.82 — same.

But diagram also has "7 in" labeled on the vertical side of the triangle. Perhaps that 7 in is the height of the triangle, and the base is something else.

Wait — look at the diagram description: it says "7 in" on the vertical leg, "7 in" on the horizontal leg? But then hypotenuse should be 7√2≈9.9, not 8.5.

Unless the 8.5 in is not the hypotenuse of the triangle, but of the prism? No.

Another idea: Perhaps the "8.5 in" is the length of the rectangular face diagonal? Unlikely.

Maybe it's a typo, and the vertical leg is not 7 in. Let's assume the triangle has legs 7 in and x in, hypotenuse 8.5 in, and proceed.

But for Grade 6, they probably expect nice numbers.

Notice: 7, 24, 25 — too big.

What if the legs are 7 and 4.5? 7² + 4.5² = 49 + 20.25 = 69.25, sqrt~8.32 — close to 8.5.

Or 7 and 5: 49+25=74, sqrt~8.6 — closer.

7 and 5.2: 49 + 27.04 = 76.04, sqrt~8.72 — still not 8.5.

Perhaps the 7 in is not a leg. Let's read the diagram carefully as described.

User said: "4. [diagram] with 8.5 in on the hypotenuse, 7 in on one leg, 7 in on the other leg? But that can't be."

Wait — in the initial user input, for problem 4, it says: "7 in" on the bottom, "7 in" on the left side, "8.5 in" on the hypotenuse, and "8 in" for the depth.

But mathematically impossible for a right triangle with legs 7 and 7 to have hypotenuse 8.5.

Unless it's not a right triangle? But there's a right angle symbol.

Perhaps the "7 in" on the left is not the leg, but the height of the prism? No.

Another possibility: The triangular face has base 7 in, height 7 in, but then it's not right-angled at that corner? But there's a right angle symbol.

I think there might be a mistake in the diagram labeling, but for the sake of solving, let's assume that the right triangle has legs of 7 in and let's say b in, and hypotenuse 8.5 in, and calculate b.

As above, b = sqrt(8.5^2 - 7^2) = sqrt(72.25 - 49) = sqrt(23.25) = sqrt(93/4) = (√93)/2

But that's messy for Grade 6.

Perhaps the 7 in on the left is the depth? No, depth is labeled 8 in.

Let's look at the dimensions given in the diagram as per user: "7 in" on the bottom of the triangle, "7 in" on the vertical side of the triangle, "8.5 in" on the hypotenuse, and "8 in" for the length of the prism.

Since 7-7-8.5 is not a valid right triangle, perhaps the right angle is not between the two 7-in sides? But the symbol is at the corner where the two 7-in sides meet.

Unless the 8.5 in is not the hypotenuse of the triangle, but of the rectangular face? For example, the rectangle formed by the hypotenuse and the depth.

That could be! In some diagrams, they label the diagonal of the rectangular face.

Let me consider that.

Suppose the triangular face is right-angled with legs a and b, hypotenuse c.

Prism depth d = 8 in.

Then the rectangular face corresponding to the hypotenuse has dimensions c by d, and its diagonal would be sqrt(c^2 + d^2).

But in the diagram, it's labeled "8.5 in" on the hypotenuse of the triangle, not on a rectangle.

Perhaps for problem 4, the triangle has legs 7 in and 7 in, and the 8.5 in is a mistake, or vice versa.

Another thought: 7, 24, 25 scaled down? 7/2.5=2.8, not integer.

Let's calculate what it should be.

Perhaps the vertical leg is not 7 in. Let's assume the horizontal leg is 7 in, the depth is 8 in, and the space diagonal or something.

I recall that in some problems, they give the three dimensions.

Perhaps the "7 in" on the left is the height of the triangle, and the base is unknown, but then why label it 7 in.

Let's try to search for common problems.

Notice that 7, 24, 25 is a triple, but 8.5 is half of 17, and 7 is 14/2, so if legs were 7 and 24/2=12, then hypotenuse 13, not 8.5.

8.5 = 17/2, so if legs are a and b, a^2 + b^2 = (17/2)^2 = 289/4.

If a=7=28/4, then b^2 = 289/4 - 784/16? Better: 7^2 = 49 = 196/4, so b^2 = 289/4 - 196/4 = 93/4, b=√93 /2.

Not nice.

Perhaps the 7 in is the area or something, but no.

Another idea: Perhaps the "7 in" on the vertical side is not a side of the triangle, but the height of the prism? But the prism depth is labeled 8 in.

I think there might be a labeling error, but for the sake of progressing, let's assume that the right triangle has legs of 7 in and 7 in, and ignore the 8.5 in for now, or assume it's a distractor.

But that would make hypotenuse 7√2 ≈9.9, and if they give 8.5, it's wrong.

Perhaps the 8.5 in is the length of the edge from the top vertex to the far bottom vertex, i.e., the space diagonal.

For a right triangular prism with legs a,b, depth d, the space diagonal from one corner to opposite corner is sqrt(a^2 + b^2 + d^2).

If a=7, b=7, d=8, then diagonal = sqrt(49+49+64) = sqrt(162) = 9√2 ≈12.7, not 8.5.

If a=7, b=x, d=8, and space diagonal 8.5, then 49 + x^2 + 64 = 72.25, x^2 = 72.25 - 113 = negative — impossible.

So not that.

Perhaps the 8.5 in is the hypotenuse, and one leg is 7 in, and the other leg is to be found, and we use that for area.

For Grade 6, they might expect us to use the given numbers as is, even if inconsistent.

So let's assume the triangular face has:
- Base = 7 in
- Height = 7 in (since labeled)
- So area = (1/2)*7*7 = 24.5 in²
- Volume = area * depth = 24.5 * 8 = 196 in³

Then for surface area, we need the three rectangular faces.

The three rectangles correspond to the three sides of the triangle times the depth 8 in.

Sides of triangle: two legs 7 in each, hypotenuse = sqrt(7^2 + 7^2) = 7√2 ≈9.9 in, but diagram says 8.5 in — conflict.

If we use the labeled 8.5 in for the hypotenuse, then sides are 7, 7, 8.5 — but 7+7>8.5, so possible, but not right-angled.

But there's a right angle symbol, so it must be right-angled.

Unless the right angle is not between the two 7-in sides.

Suppose the right angle is between the 7-in base and the 8.5-in side? Then the other leg would be sqrt(8.5^2 - 7^2) = sqrt(72.25-49) = sqrt(23.25) ≈4.82 in, and the vertical side is labeled 7 in, which would be the hypotenuse? But then it should be larger than 8.5, contradiction.

I think the only logical way is to assume that the vertical leg is not 7 in, but let's calculate from the hypotenuse.

Perhaps the "7 in" on the left is the depth, but depth is labeled 8 in.

Let's count the labels in the user's description: "7 in" on the bottom, "7 in" on the left side, "8.5 in" on the hypotenuse, "8 in" for the length.

Perhaps for the surface area, we can use the given side lengths for the rectangles.

So assume the triangular face has sides: 7 in, 7 in, and 8.5 in, and it's right-angled at the corner of the two 7-in sides, even though mathematically it's not accurate, but for the problem, we'll use the given numbers.

So area of triangle = (1/2)*7*7 = 24.5 in² (since right-angled at that corner)

Volume = 24.5 * 8 = 196 in³

Surface area:
- 2 triangles: 2 * 24.5 = 49 in²
- Three rectangles:
- Rectangle 1: 7 in * 8 in = 56 in² (corresponding to first leg)
- Rectangle 2: 7 in * 8 in = 56 in² (second leg)
- Rectangle 3: 8.5 in * 8 in = 68 in² (hypotenuse)
Total SA = 49 + 56 + 56 + 68 = let's add: 49+56=105, +56=161, +68=229 in²

Even though the triangle with sides 7,7,8.5 is not right-angled (because 7^2 +7^2 =98, 8.5^2=72.25, not equal), but perhaps in the context, we proceed.

Maybe the 8.5 in is correct, and the vertical leg is not 7 in. Let's solve for the actual height.

From earlier, if base 7 in, hypotenuse 8.5 in, then height h = sqrt(8.5^2 - 7^2) = sqrt(72.25 - 49) = sqrt(23.25) = sqrt(93/4) = (√93)/2

√93 ≈ 9.643, so h ≈ 4.8215 in

Then area of triangle = (1/2)*7*4.8215 ≈ (1/2)*33.7505 ≈ 16.875 in²

Volume = 16.875 * 8 = 135 in³ approximately

But not nice number.

Perhaps the 7 in on the left is the height, and the base is unknown, but then why label it 7 in on the bottom.

I think for Grade 6, they likely intend the triangle to have legs 7 in and 7 in, and the 8.5 in is a mistake, or perhaps it's 9.9 in rounded, but 8.5 is given.

Another possibility: "8.5 in" is the length of the prism, but no, "8 in" is labeled for the depth.

Let's look online or think of standard problems.

Upon second thought, in some diagrams, the "8.5 in" might be the slant height or something, but I think I need to make a decision.

Let me check the numbers: 7, 24, 25 is a triple, but 8.5 is 17/2, and 7 is 14/2, so if the legs were 7 and 12, hypotenuse 13, not 8.5.

8.5 = 17/2, so if legs are a and b, a^2 + b^2 = (17/2)^2 = 289/4.

If a=7=28/4, then b^2 = 289/4 - 196/4 = 93/4, as before.

Perhaps the vertical leg is 4.5 in or something.

Let's calculate what leg would give hypotenuse 8.5 with base 7: as above, ~4.82 in.

But the diagram labels it as 7 in, so perhaps it's a different configuration.

Another idea: Perhaps the "7 in" on the left is not a side of the triangle, but the height of the prism, but the prism depth is 8 in, so unlikely.

I recall that in some problems, for a right triangular prism, they give the three edges from a vertex.

Perhaps the 7 in (bottom), 7 in (vertical), and 8 in (depth) are the three mutually perpendicular edges, and the 8.5 in is the face diagonal or space diagonal.

For example, the face diagonal on the front face: if front face is 7x7, diagonal 7√2≈9.9, not 8.5.

Space diagonal: sqrt(7^2 + 7^2 + 8^2) = sqrt(49+49+64) = sqrt(162) = 9√2≈12.7, not 8.5.

If the edges are a,b,c, and face diagonal on a-b face is sqrt(a^2+b^2) = 8.5, and a=7, then b= sqrt(8.5^2 - 7^2) = sqrt(23.25)≈4.82, and c=8.

Then the triangular face is right-angled with legs 7 and 4.82, area = (1/2)*7*4.82 = 16.87 in², volume = 16.87*8 = 134.96 in³

Surface area:
- 2 triangles: 2*16.87 = 33.74 in²
- Rectangles:
- 7*8 = 56 in²
- 4.82*8 = 38.56 in²
- 8.5*8 = 68 in² (since the hypotenuse is 8.5 in for the triangle)
Total SA = 33.74 + 56 + 38.56 + 68 = let's calculate: 33.74+56=89.74, +38.56=128.3, +68=196.3 in²

But again, not nice numbers.

Perhaps the 7 in on the left is the hypotenuse, but then with base 7, it would be isosceles right triangle, hypotenuse 7√2≈9.9, not 8.5.

I think there might be a typo in the problem, and the vertical leg is meant to be 4.5 in or something, but let's see if 7, 4.5, 8.5 works: 7^2 + 4.5^2 = 49 + 20.25 = 69.25, 8.5^2=72.25, not equal.

7, 5, 8.5: 49+25=74, 72.25, close but not equal.

7, 4.8, 8.5: 49 + 23.04 = 72.04, close to 72.25.

So approximately 4.8 in.

For Grade 6, perhaps they expect us to use the given numbers as is for the rectangles.

So let's go with the first approach for consistency with other problems.

For problem 4, assume the triangular face is right-angled with legs 7 in and 7 in, so area = 24.5 in², volume = 24.5 * 8 = 196 in³

For surface area, use the sides as 7, 7, and for hypotenuse, use 7√2, but since diagram says 8.5, perhaps use 8.5 for the rectangle.

To match the diagram, use the labeled lengths for the rectangles.

So sides of triangle: 7 in, 7 in, 8.5 in (even though not accurate)

Area of triangle = (1/2)*7*7 = 24.5 in² (assuming right angle between the two 7-in sides)

Volume = 24.5 * 8 = 196 in³

Surface area:
- 2 triangles: 49 in²
- Rectangle 1: 7 * 8 = 56 in²
- Rectangle 2: 7 * 8 = 56 in²
- Rectangle 3: 8.5 * 8 = 68 in²
Total SA = 49 + 56 + 56 + 68 = 229 in²

I think that's what is expected, despite the geometric inconsistency.

Perhaps the 8.5 in is correct, and the vertical leg is not 7 in, but the diagram has a mistake, but for the answer, we'll use 229 in².

Let's move on and box the answers.

So summarizing:

Problem 1:
Volume: 27 in³
Surface area: 54 in²

Problem 2:
Volume: 20 in³
Surface area: 61 in²

Problem 3:
Volume: 230.79 in³ (or 73.5π)
Surface area: 208.81 in² (or 66.5π)

Problem 4:
Volume: 196 in³
Surface area: 229 in²

For problem 3, since it's Grade 6, they might want exact or approximate. Usually, they use π=3.14.

For problem 4, to be precise, let's calculate with the correct geometry.

Assume the right triangle has base 7 in, hypotenuse 8.5 in, so height h = sqrt(8.5^2 - 7^2) = sqrt(72.25 - 49) = sqrt(23.25) = sqrt(93/4) = (√93)/2

But √93 is irrational, so perhaps leave as is, but for Grade 6, unlikely.

Notice that 23.25 = 93/4, and 93 = 3*31, no perfect squares.

Perhaps the numbers are 7, 24, 25 scaled by 0.5: 3.5, 12, 12.5, not matching.

Another thought: perhaps the "7 in" on the left is the depth, but depth is 8 in.

I think I have to go with the initial calculation for problem 4 as 196 in³ and 229 in².

So final answers:

1. Volume: 27 in³, Surface area: 54 in²
2. Volume: 20 in³, Surface area: 61 in²
3. Volume: 230.79 in³, Surface area: 208.81 in²
4. Volume: 196 in³, Surface area: 229 in²

For problem 3, perhaps they want it as 73.5π and 66.5π, but usually numerical.

Or round to nearest whole number.

230.79 -> 231, 208.81 -> 209.

But let's keep as calculated.

For problem 2, we had volume 20, SA 61.

For problem 4, let's double-check with correct geometry.

Suppose the triangular face has:
- Base b = 7 in
- Height h = ?
- But from diagram, if the vertical side is labeled 7 in, and it's the height, then area = (1/2)*7*7 = 24.5, but then hypotenuse should be sqrt(7^2 +7^2) =7√2≈9.9, but labeled 8.5, so perhaps the 8.5 is for something else.

Perhaps the 8.5 in is the length of the edge from the top to the far bottom, i.e., the edge of the prism along the hypotenuse direction.

In that case, for the rectangular face, if the triangle has legs a,b, then the rectangle has sides c (hypotenuse) and d (depth), and if they label the diagonal of that rectangle as 8.5 in, then sqrt(c^2 + d^2) = 8.5.

With d=8 in, then c^2 + 64 = 72.25, c^2 = 8.25, c=2.87 in, then for the triangle, if legs 7 and x, 49 + x^2 = 8.25, impossible.

So not that.

I think the best is to assume that for problem 4, the triangle has legs 7 in and 7 in, and the 8.5 in is a red herring or mistake, and use hypotenuse 7√2 for the rectangle, but then SA would be different.

To resolve, let's calculate with the given numbers as labeled for the rectangles.

So for problem 4:
- Triangle area = (1/2) * 7 * 7 = 24.5 in² (assuming right angle between the two 7-in sides)
- Volume = 24.5 * 8 = 196 in³
- Surface area = 2*24.5 + 7*8 + 7*8 + 8.5*8 = 49 + 56 + 56 + 68 = 229 in²

I think that's the intended answer.

So I'll go with that.

Final Answer:

1. Volume: 27 in³, Surface area: 54 in²
2. Volume: 20 in³, Surface area: 61 in²
3. Volume: 230.79 in³, Surface area: 208.81 in²
4. Volume: 196 in³, Surface area: 229 in²

For problem 3, perhaps write as 231 in³ and 209 in² if rounding, but let's keep decimals as calculated.

Since it's money or something, but for geometry, usually keep as is or use π.

But in the context, I think numerical is fine.

So boxing the answers.

Note: For problem 3, if they want exact, but I think for Grade 6, numerical with π=3.14 is standard.

Similarly for others.

So Final Answer:

1. Volume: 27 in³, Surface area: 54 in²
2. Volume: 20 in³, Surface area: 61 in²
3. Volume: 230.79 in³, Surface area: 208.81 in²
4. Volume: 196 in³, Surface area: 229 in²

To make it neat, perhaps write as:

For 3, volume = 73.5 × 3.14 = let's calculate exactly: 73.5 * 3.14

73.5 * 3 = 220.5
73.5 * 0.14 = 10.29
Sum 230.79, yes.

SA = 66.5 * 3.14 = 66.5 * 3 = 199.5, 66.5 * 0.14 = 9.31, sum 208.81, yes.

For 4, if we want to be accurate, but I think 229 is fine.

So I'll box that.

Final Answer
