Note 1 Measurement Systems
  • In NZ the measurement system used is the metric
    system. The units relate directly to each other.

  • To change within a unit from one prefix to
    another prefix, we either multiply or divide by a
    power of 10.

smaller to larger unit divide by a power of
10 larger to smaller unit multiply by a power
of 10
Examples convert the following 5.76m to
cm 489mL to L 3789600cm to km

  • Convert the following
  • 59mL to L
  • 4200kg to tonne
  • 11m465mm to cm
  • A dairy stores milk in 5 litre containers. How
    many 350mL milkshakes can be made from one of
    these containers?

  • Note 2 Derived Units

Derived units show comparisons between two
related measures. For example, speed is a measure
of how much distance changes over time. The
units for speed are m/s or km/h.
Distance
Speed
Time
8
  • Examples
  • A cyclist travels at a steady speed of 24km/h for
    40 minutes. How far did the cyclist travel?
  • 40 minutes 2/3hour
  • Distance speed x time
  • 24 x 2/3
  • 16 km

9
Changing from one speed unit to another
  • Note 1km 1000m
  • 1 hour 3600sec

Examples Change 45km/h into m/s 45km/h 45 x
1000m/h 45000m/h 45000m/3600s 12.5 m/s
10
Examples Change 74m/s into km/h 74m/s
3600x74m/h 266400m/h 266.4km/h

  • Convert the following
  • 19m/s to km/h
  • A truck travels at an average speed of 75km/h for
    a distance of 300km. What time does the journey
    take?
  • A Boeing 747 has a cruising speed of 910km/h.
    Change this into m/s?

  • Note 3 Perimeter

The perimeter is the distance around the outside
of a shape. Start at one corner and work around
the shape calculating any missing sides.

  • Calculate the perimeter of

The plan shows an L-shaped paddock. Calculate
the total cost of fencing it at 24/m
16
  • Note 4 Circumference

The perimeter of a circle is called the
circumference. The formula for the circumference
is C pd or C 2pr where d
diameter r radius.
Example Find the circumference of
C 2pr 2 x p x 8cm 50.3cm (1dp)
17
If a sector has an angle at the centre equal to
x, then the arc length is x/360 of the
circumference.
Example Find the perimeter of the sector
Angle of sector 360 - 120 240 Arc
Length x/360 x 2pr 240/360 x 2 x p x
6m 25.1m (1dp) Perimeter 2 x 6m
25.1m 37.1m

  • Calculate the perimeter of

Paul goes for a short cycle ride. Each wheel on
his bike has a radius of 27cm. His distance
counter tells him the wheel has rotated 650
times. Find how far he has travelled in metres.

Note 5 Area
Area is measured in square units.

  • Find the area of

A chocolate bar is wrapped in a rectangular piece
of foil measuring 10cm by 15cm. Calculate the
area of the piece of foil. How many pieces could
be cut out from a larger sheet of foil measuring
120cm by 75cm?
27
Note 6 Compound Area
  • Compound shapes are made up of more than one
    mathematical shape.
  • To find the area of a compound shape, find the
    areas of each individual shapes and either add or
    subtract as you need to.

Examples find the area of
Area splits into a rectangle and a triangle
Area Area rectangle area triangle b ? h
