Study Notes

Garden and Rectangular Shapes

  • The area of a rectangular garden can be calculated by multiplying its length and width.
  • The perimeter of a rectangular garden can be calculated by adding the lengths of all its sides.
  • A rectangular garden with a length of 25 meters and a width of 12 meters has a perimeter of 2(25 + 12) = 74 meters.
  • A square plot with a side length of 30 meters has an area of 30² = 900 meters².

Circles and Semicircles

  • The formula for calculating the circumference of a circle is 2πr, where r is the radius.
  • The area of a circular end can be calculated by finding the area of the circle and dividing it by 2.
  • Two circular ends combined have a total area of 2(πr²/2) = πr².

Floor and Tiles

  • The area of the rectangular floor is given in the text and can be used to calculate the number of tiles required to cover it.
  • To find the number of tiles required, divide the area of the floor by the area of a single tile.
  • If a floor has an area of 1080 m² and a tile has an area of 1 m², 1080 tiles are required to cover the floor.

Ant's Path

  • An ant would have to take a longer round for a circular food-piece than a rectangular one.
