Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

A solid cone has base radius 5 cm and perpendicular height 12 cm. Calculate the volume of the cone.

  1. 100 cm³
  2. 314 cm³
  3. 100π cm³
  4. 300 cm³
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: B — 314 cm³
Award 1 mark for correct application of V = ⅓πr²h = ⅓π(5)²(12) = 100π ≈ 314.16 cm³. C is incorrect — this gives 100π without evaluation. D is incorrect — this omits π from the calculation. A is incorrect — this uses the formula without the factor ⅓.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

A farmer in Kenya wants to fence a triangular plot of land with sides measuring 50 m, 120 m and 130 m. Calculate the total length of fencing required.

  1. 300 m
  2. 3000 m
  3. 170 m
  4. 180 m
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: A — 300 m
Award 1 mark for correct addition. Perimeter = 50 + 120 + 130 = 300 m. C is incorrect — this is 50 + 120 only. D is incorrect — this is 50 + 130 only. B is incorrect — this multiplies the sides instead of adding them.

CIE IGCSE Mathematics: Mensuration FAQ

Is Kramizo free for CIE IGCSE students preparing for Mathematics?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Mensuration practice with other Mathematics topics or even switch to a totally different CIE subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Mensuration questions aligned to the official CIE IGCSE Mathematics syllabus?
Every question is written against the published CIE IGCSE Mathematics specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real CIE paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from CIE.
How is Mensuration typically tested on CIE IGCSE Mathematics papers?
Mensuration appears across multiple question types on real CIE IGCSE Mathematics papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
