Objectives • To convert one-dimensional units • To find the perimeter of a closed figure • To convert two-dimensional units • To find the area of a closed figure
Chapter 11 – Section A - Conversion of Units Systems of Measuring • pint • quart • gallon • pound • teaspoon • tablespoon • cup • Metric System • meter • gram • liter • Joule • Newton • Watt • Imperial System • inch • foot • yard • mile • acre • ounce
1) Convert: 16.73 m to cm 48380 cm to km
2) Convert 2.3 kg to grams 8 470 000 g to tonnes
Chapter 11 – Section B - Perimeter • The perimeter of a figure is the measure of the distance around its boundary. • The perimeter of a circle is called its circumference. • The formula for circumference is: C = πdor C = 2πr Page 359has formulae for different perimeters
2) Find, to 3 sig figs, the circumference of a circle of: diameter 13.8 meters radius 3.7 meters
4) Find the radius of a circle with circumference 11.7 meters
Area units 1cm2 = 1cm × 1cm = 10 mm × 10 mm = 100 mm2
Units of Area To convert square units, move the decimal twice as far.
Square meters vs. Meters Squared 10 m2 (10 m)2 • an area 2 meters wide by 5 meters long would be 10 square meters, • while 10meters squared means an area of 10 meters by 10 meters. • So 10 meters squared equals 100 square meters.
Convert: 1) 650000 m2 to ha 2) 2.5 m2 to mm2
