In NCERT Solution For Class 10, Maths, Chapter 13, Surface Areas And Volumes, Exercise 13.3, we will discuss questions related to conversion of Solid from One Shape to Another. let take an example, a candle. When we melt the candle, we can give it to any shape. So, in ex. 13.3, Chapter 13, class 10 we will study about conversion of one shape to another shape.
