CHAPTER 5 MEASUREMENT
SECTION 5-1 Ratios and Units of Measure
MEASUREMENT– is a process used to find size, quantities, or amounts
COMPASS – is used for drawing curved lines and circles for measuring distances.
PROTRACTOR – is an instrument for measuring and drawing angles.
CALIPERS and MICROMETERS – devices used for making precise measurements
GREATEST POSSIBLE ERROR – is ½ the smallest unit used to make the measurement.
RATIO – is a quotient of two numbers that compares one number with the other.
UNIT RATE – compares a quantity to one unit of that quantity
SECTION 5-2 Perimeter, Circumference and Area
Circle C = d or 2r A =r2
Rectangle or Square P = 2l + 2w A = lw
Triangle A = ½bh
Parallelogram A = bh
Trapezoid A = ½h(b1+b2)
SECTION 5-3 Probability and Area
P(any event) = number of favorable outcomes ÷ number of possible outcomes
SECTION 5-4 Problem Solving Skills: Irregular Shapes
SECTION 5-5 Three-dimensional Figures and Loci
POLYHEDRON– is a three-dimensional figure in which each surface is a polygon and
The surfaces are called faces. Two faces intersect at an edge, and a vertex is a point where three or more edges intersect.
PRISM - a polyhedron with two identical parallel faces. Each of these faces is called a base and
PYRAMID - a polyhedron with only one base. The other faces are triangles that meet at a vertex and
LATERAL EDGES - are the edges of lateral faces and can be parallel, intersecting,or skew.
CYLINDER - a three-dimensional figure having a curved region with two parallel congruent circular bases. Its axis joins the centers of the two bases.
CONE - a three-dimensional figure having a curved surface and one circular base. Its axis is a segment from the vertex to the center of the base.
SPHERE - is the set of points in space that are the same distance from a given point called the center of the sphere.
SECTION 5-6 Surface Area of Three-dimensional Figures
SURFACE AREA - The sum of the areas of all the faces of a three-dimensional figure.
Square base A = s2
Square prism SA = 6s2
Rectangular Prism SA = 2(lw + lh + wh)
Triangular face A = ½bh
Circular base A = r2
Curved surface A = 2rh
Cylinder SA = 2rh + 2r2
Cone SA = rs +r2 S is the slant height
Sphere SA = 4r2
