Topic 1 SHAPE AND MEASUREMENT

Shape and Measurement Overview

This topic includes:

• review of units of measurement of length, angle, area, volume and capacity

• Pythagoras’ theorem in two dimensions, and simple examples in three dimensions, and application to practical problems

• perimeter and areas of triangles (including the use of Heron’s formula), quadrilaterals, circles and composite shapes and practical applications

• volumes and surface areas of solids (spheres, cylinders, pyramids and prisms and their composites) and practical applications

• similar figures including the mathematical conditions for similarity of two-dimensional shapes, and the linear scale factor and its extension to areas and volumes

• similarity of solids and the application of linear scale factor k > 0 to scale lengths, surface areas and volumes with practical applications
