The area of the region between two concentric circles of radii 3 and 5 is:

Answer: 16π.

  • A
  • B 16π
  • C 25π
  • D 34π

Correct answer: B. 16π

Explanation: Area = π(5² − 3²) = π(25 − 9) = 16π.

Cylinder, Cone, SphereV=πr²hCSA=2πrhV=⅓πr²hCSA=πrlV=4/3πr³SA=4πr²

Three standard 3D solids and their key formulas: a cylinder's volume scales with the full height, a cone's volume is exactly one-third of the cylinder with the same base and height, and a sphere's volume and surface area both follow distinct r-based formulas worth memorising separately.
