Measurement
2
Note 1 : Measurement Systems In NZ the measurement system used is the metric system. The units relate directly to each other.
3
CapacityBasic UnitSymbol Distance Mass (weight) Capacity Temperature Time Area Land Area Volume metrem gramg L °C s/min degrees celsius litre seconds/minutes square metres m² hectares ha cubic metres m³
4
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 unitmultiply by a power of 10 Examples: convert the following 5.76m to cm 489mL to L 3789600cm to km

6
STARTERS 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?
7
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 SpeedTime
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
11

12
STARTERS 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?
13
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. 6 cm 5 cm 2 cm 5 cm Perimeter = 5cm + 3cm + 6cm + 2cm + 11cm + 5cm = 32cm

15
STARTERS 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 = πd or C = 2πr where d = diameter r = radius. Example: Find the circumference of C = 2πr = 2 x π 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 2πr = 240 / 360 x 2 x π x 6m = 25.1m (1dp) Perimeter = 2 x 6m + 25.1m = 37.1m

19
STARTERS 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.
20
Note 5: Area Area is measured in square units.
21
Examples converting units:
22
Examples of converting units 5.6cm 2 to mm 2 Big Small x 5.6cm 2 = 5.6 x 100 = 560mm 2 396000cm 2 to m 2 Small Big ÷ 396000cm 2 = 396000÷10000 = 39.6m 2
23
Examples: Calculate the area of these shapes 7m7m 9m9m 17m 12m 8m8m 15m 17m 10m ½ 12 7 = 42 m 2 Area = ½ base height = ½ 17 10 = 85 m 2
24
Radius = 7 ÷ 2 = 3.5 cm Area = x / 360 x π x r² = 180 / 360 x π x 3.5² = 19.2 m² (1dp) Area = ½ (sum of bases) x height = ½(9 + 12) x 7 = 73.5 m² (1dp)

26
STARTERS 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.
28
Examples: find the area of Area splits into a rectangle and a triangle Area = Area rectangle + area triangle = b h + ½ b h = 4 5 + ½ 4 2 = 24cm 2
29
Area splits into a rectangle with another rectangle taken away Area = area big rectangle – area small rectangle = b h - b h = 6 4 – 3 2 = 18m 2

STARTERS Find the area of Trapezium = 750 Rectangle = 1000 Half Circle = 628.3 Area = 750 + 1000 - 628.3 = 1121.7 cm 2
32
Note 7: Finding missing parts of shapes To find missing sides of shapes, rearrange the formulas. Example 1: The area of the triangle is 135m 2. Calculate the height of the triangle. Area = ½ base height 135= ½ 18 x 135= 9x x = 15m
33
Example 2: Calculate the radius of a circle with an area of 65cm 2. Area = π r 2 65= π r 2 r 2 = 65 / π r = √ 65 / π = 4.5 cm
