Measurement and Units in Geometry

Units of Measurement

  • Length: units of measurement include meters (m), centimeters (cm), millimeters (mm), kilometers (km), inches (in), feet (ft), yards (yd)
  • Angle: units of measurement include degrees (°), radians (rad)
  • Area: units of measurement include square meters (m²), square centimeters (cm²), square millimeters (mm²), square inches (in²), square feet (ft²), square yards (yd²)
  • Volume: units of measurement include cubic meters (m³), cubic centimeters (cm³), cubic millimeters (mm³), cubic inches (in³), cubic feet (ft³), cubic yards (yd³)

Converting Between Units

  • Length:
    • 1 meter = 100 centimeters = 1000 millimeters
    • 1 kilometer = 1000 meters
    • 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters
    • 1 foot = 12 inches
    • 1 yard = 3 feet
  • Angle:
    • 1 degree = π/180 radians
    • 1 radian = 180/π degrees
  • Area:
    • 1 square meter = 10000 square centimeters
    • 1 square kilometer = 1000000 square meters
    • 1 square inch = 6.4516 square centimeters
    • 1 square foot = 144 square inches
    • 1 square yard = 9 square feet
  • Volume:
    • 1 cubic meter = 1000 cubic centimeters
    • 1 cubic kilometer = 1000000 cubic meters
    • 1 cubic inch = 16.387 cubic centimeters
    • 1 cubic foot = 1728 cubic inches
    • 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet

Measurement Tools and Techniques

  • Rulers: used to measure length and distance
  • Protractors: used to measure angles
  • Calipers: used to measure precise distances and lengths
  • Measuring tapes: used to measure longer distances and lengths
  • Geometry software: used to calculate and measure geometric shapes and figures

Computer System

  • A set of integrated hardware and software components that work together to perform a specific task or set of tasks.
  • Consists of input devices (e.g. keyboard, mouse), processing unit (CPU), storage devices (e.g. hard drive, RAM), and output devices (e.g. monitor, printer).
  • Can be classified into desktop systems, laptop systems, mobile systems, and embedded systems.

Database System

  • A collection of organized data that is stored in a way that allows for efficient retrieval and manipulation.
  • Consists of database management system (DBMS), database schema, data storage, and data retrieval and manipulation tools.
  • Types of database systems include relational database management systems (RDBMS), object-oriented database management systems (OODBMS), and NoSQL database systems.

Operating System

  • A set of software that manages computer hardware resources and provides common services to computer programs.
  • Functions include process management, memory management, file system management, input/output (I/O) management, and security management.
  • Types of operating systems include single-user, single-tasking systems, multi-user, single-tasking systems, multi-user, multi-tasking systems, and real-time operating systems.

Information System

  • A set of integrated components that collect, store, and provide access to information.
  • Consists of hardware components (e.g. computers, servers), software components (e.g. applications, operating systems), data components (e.g. databases, files), network components (e.g. internet, intranet), and human components (e.g. users, administrators).
  • Types of information systems include transaction processing systems, management information systems, decision support systems, and expert systems.

Nervous System

  • A complex system of nerve cells (neurons) that transmit and process information in the body.
  • Consists of central nervous system (CNS): brain and spinal cord, and peripheral nervous system (PNS): nerves and ganglia outside the CNS.
  • Functions include control and coordination of body functions, sensory input and perception, motor control and movement, and regulation of body functions (e.g. heart rate, blood pressure).
  • Divided into somatic nervous system: controls voluntary movements, and autonomic nervous system: controls involuntary movements (e.g. heart rate, digestion).
