Angles • Angles describe the shape made by two straight lines that meet at a point • Vertex –the point at which two lines meet • Degrees are used to measure an angle • Protractors are used to measure the number of degrees in an angle
Types of Angles • Acute angle • An angle that measures between 0 and 90 • Right angle • An angle that measures exactly 90 degrees • Obtuse • An angle that measures between 90 and 180 degrees • Straight • An angle that measures exactly 180 degrees
Circles • Perimeter is called Circumference • Diameter • Length of the line that goes from one edge, through the center, to the other edge of a circle • Radius • Length of any line that goes from the center of a circle to the edge • Pi (π) • The ratio of the circumference to the diameter
Circle Formulas • Circumference • Pi * diameter (or pi * 2 * radius) • Area • Pi * radius * radius (pi r^2)
Other area formulas • Triangle • ½ base * height • Square/Rectangle • Length * width • Don’t forget your units!!! When we calculate area, it is measured in SQUARE UNITS (sq ft, sq meters, sq in, sq cm, etc)
Test your skill • Find the area and perimeter of the following 4m 5ft 0.5 m 4ft 6ft 14 cm
Stretch Break • You have 3 ½ minutes
Volume • Recall: area is measuring two dimensions, length and width. For volume, we measure three dimensions: length, width and height • When we calculated area, we multiplied the two dimensions together. So for volume, we will multiply three dimensions together • Don’t forget your units!!! When we calculate volume, it is measured in CUBIC UNITS (cu ft, cu meters, cu in, cu cm, etc)
Volume formulas • Rectangular prism (a box of various shapes) • L * w *h • In general, area of base * height • (for rectangle box l * w is area of base) • We use this formula for shapes that are not so neat, like cylinders and triangular prisms (triangular boxes)
Conversions in multiple dimensions • When converting units in multiple dimensions (ie more than one, ie area and volume) we must convert for each dimension • 1 cu ft = 1ft *1ft*1ft • =12 in*12in*12in=______ • 1cu m= 1m*1m*1m • =100cm*100cm*100cm=______
Test your skill conversion • 3cu ft = _____cu in • 200,000 cu cm=_____cu m • 512 cu ft = _____cu yards
Pythagorean Theorem • a^2+b^2=c^2 • Used in right triangles as a relationship between sides c b a
