SIMPLE SOLID MENSURATION MATLAB PROGRAM
1. Objective:
The activity aims to create matlab program that will ask the user to choose between the two types of figures
in solid mensuration and output the area, perimeter/circumference, volume or surface area of a certain
figure.

2. Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs):

The students shall be able to:
2.1 create matlab programs that will determine the area and perimeter of five(5) plane figures
2.2 create matlab programs that will determine the volume and surface area of five(5) solid figures
2.3 use switch…case… break in creating matlab program for a simple solid mensuration problem-
solving situation.

3. Discussion :
Solid Mensuration is a branch of mathematics that deals with the area and perimeter/circumference of
plane figures and volume and surface area of solid figures.

7. Conclusion:
I therefore conclude that this lab experiment was able to help us in creating a program that will calculate
the area, perimeter, surface area and volume. By just entering the values using the correct program, you
can easily solve for area, perimeter, surface area and volume, whether it is plane figure or solid figure.
