Study Notes
Converting Metric Units of Measurement
Length
- Length measures the distance between two points.
- Common length units include kilometres (km), meters (m), centimetres (cm), and millimetres (mm).
- 10 millimetres (mm) equals 1 centimetre (cm).
- 100 centimetres (cm) equals 1 meter (m).
- 1000 millimetres (mm) equals 1 meter (m).
- 1000 meters (m) equals 1 kilometre (km).
- Formula to convert mm to cm: ( \text{Length in cm} = \frac{\text{Length in mm}}{10} )

Measuring Length, Weight, Volume, and Temperature
Introduction
- Measuring length, weight, volume, and temperature is essential for cooking, planning, and managing finances.
Measuring Length and Distance
- Accurate length and distance measurements require specific instruments.
- A ruler measures length in centimetres and millimetres.
- A measuring tape measures length in centimetres and meters.
- A trundle wheel measures distance in meters.
- An odometer measures distance travelled by a vehicle in kilometres.
- Total cost calculation: ( \text{Total Cost} = \text{Length Needed} \times \text{Price per Meter} )
Measuring Mass or Weight
- Mass and weight are measured using various types of scales.
- Kitchen scales measure small quantities of food.
- Market scales measure larger quantities of food.
- Bathroom scales measure a person's weight.
- Platform scales measure bulky objects.
- Weighbridges measure very large objects like trucks.
- 1 tonne equals 1000 kg.
- 1 kg equals 1000 g.
- Total cost calculation: ( \text{Total Cost} = \text{Weight Needed} \times \text{Price per Kilogram} )
Measuring Volume
- Volume measures the space an object occupies.
- Capacity measures how much liquid a container can hold when full.
- Standard measuring spoons: teaspoon (5 ml) and tablespoon (15 ml).
- Measuring cups have capacities such as 250 ml, 125 ml, and 63 ml.
- Measuring jugs commonly hold 1 Liter.
- Buckets typically hold 10 litres.
- Wheelbarrows usually hold about 170 litres.
- 1 Liter equals 1000 ml.
- Total cost calculation: ( \text{Total Cost} = \text{Volume Needed} \times \text{Price per Liter} )
Measuring and Monitoring Temperature
- Temperature is measured in degrees Celsius (°C).
- Analogue thermometers measure human body temperature.
- Outdoor thermometers measure external temperatures.
- Water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C at sea level.
- Normal human body temperature ranges between 36°C and 37°C.
Measuring Perimeter
- Perimeter refers to the total length of the outside of a shape or the boundary of a closed geometric figure.
- Perimeter is measured in mm, cm, m, or km.
- A rectangle is a flat two-dimensional shape with opposite sides equal and adjacent sides at right angles (90°).
- A square is a flat, two-dimensional shape with four equal sides and right angles (90°).
- Circumference is the perimeter of a circle.
- Radius (r) is the length from the center to any point on the edge of the circle.
- Diameter (d) is the length from one edge to the other through the center.
- Pi (Ï€) is approximately equal to 3.142.
- Rectangle Perimeter: ( P = 2 \times \text{length} + 2 \times \text{width} )
- Square Perimeter: ( P = 4 \times \text{side} )
- Triangle Perimeter: ( P = \text{side}_1 + \text{side}_2 + \text{side}_3 )
- Circle Circumference: ( C = \pi \times \text{diameter} ) or ( C = 2 \times \pi \times \text{radius} )
Measuring Area
- Area is the size of a surface or the space inside a flat object, measured in mm², cm², m², or km².
- To estimate area, place a square grid over the area and count how many squares fit within the shape.
- Rectangle Area: ( A = \text{length} \times \text{width} )
- Square Area: ( A = \text{side} \times \text{side} = \text{side}^2 )
- Triangle Area: ( A = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} )
- Circle Area: ( A = \pi \times \text{radius}^2 )
- A perpendicular line lies at an angle of 90° to a given line, plane, or surface.
