Study Notes
- Scale is the ratio of a distance on a map to the corresponding real-life distance. A scale of 1:100 indicates that 1 unit on the map equals 100 units in reality.
Number Scales
- Expressed as a ratio (e.g., 1:50).
- Multiply the measured distance on the map by the scale factor to find the real distance.
- Formula:
- [ \text{Real Distance} = \text{Measured Distance on Map} \times \text{Scale Factor} ]
- Accurate but requires scale adjustment when resizing maps.
Bar Scales
- Represented graphically with segments indicating a specific distance.
- Real distance is determined by multiplying the number of segments fitting the measured distance by the distance each segment represents.
- Formula:
- [ \text{Real Distance} = \left(\frac{\text{Measured Distance on Map}}{\text{Length of One Segment}}\right) \times \text{Distance Represented by One Segment} ]
- Adjusts proportionally when resizing maps, maintaining accuracy.
Measuring Distance
- Measure dimensions on the map and convert using the provided scale.
- Use number or bar scales to find the actual dimensions.
Drawing Scaled Maps
- Know the actual measurements of what to include.
- Know the scale to be used.
- Formula:
- [ \text{Scaled Measurement} = \frac{\text{Actual Measurement}}{\text{Scale Factor}} ]
Advantages and Disadvantages of Scales
- Number Scale:
- Simple to use as it requires measuring only one distance but becomes incorrect if resized.
- Bar Scale:
- Remains accurate when resized, but is more complex because it requires measuring the length of one segment and then calculating how many segments fit the measured distance.
Maps and Directions
- Use clear and concise language, referencing known landmarks.
Seating and Floor Plans
- Seating Plans: Familiarize yourself with seat numbers and rows in relation to aisles, stage/screen, and exits.
- Floor Plans: Include measurements and placement of furniture, windows, and doors; use symbols for common elements.
Plans
- Plans: 2D pictures or drawings that describe what an object looks like including its dimensions.
- Floor Plans: Show layout of buildings from a top view.
- Common symbols in assembly instructions include scissors, screws, screwdrivers, and hammers.
- Common symbols in floor plans include walls, doors, windows, bath, toilet, sink, shower, and beds.
Working with Scale on Floor Plans
- A scale of 1:50 means that 1 unit on the plan represents 50 units in real life.
- Formula:
- [ \text{Measurement on Plan} = \frac{\text{Real-life Measurement}}{\text{Scale Factor}} ]
Packaging and Models
- Volume Formula:
- [ \text{Volume} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width} \times \text{Height} ]
- Area Formula:
- [ \text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width} ]
- Optimizing item arrangement in limited spaces is important.
- Example of Volume calculation
- Volume of box = ( 45 \text{ cm} \times 30 \text{ cm} \times 20 \text{ cm} = 27000 \text{ cm}^3 )
Probability Scale
- Ranges from 0 (impossible) to 1 (certain) to describe the likelihood of an event.
- Values in the scale:
- Impossible: 0
- Very Unlikely: Near 0
- Unlikely: Between 0 and 0.5
- Even Chances: 0.5
- Likely: Between 0.5 and 1
- Very Likely: Near 1
- Certain: 1
- Probabilities are fractions, decimals, or percentages.
Key Terms
- Frequency: Number of times something happens.
- Random: Occurs without being deliberately made to happen.
- Trial: A test, like tossing a coin or rolling a dice.
- Fair: Equal chance, without advantage or disadvantage.
- Theoretical Probability: Calculated probability of an event.
- Relative Frequency: Actual result of an experiment.
- Outcome: Result of a single trial.
- Event: Collection of one or more outcomes.
Fair and Unfair Games
- Fair game: Equal chance of winning or losing.
- Unfair game: Weighted to favour one player.
Single and Combined Outcomes
- Tree Diagrams: Show all possible outcomes.
- Combined Outcomes: Using more than one object or repeating an experiment creates a compound event.
Calculating Probability:
- Probability (P) = (Number of favourable outcomes) / (Total number of possible outcomes)
Weather Prediction
- Analysing past weather data. The the probability of rain is based on how often it has rained on days with similar conditions in the past.
Key Concept Formulas
- Probability of an Event (E):
- [ P(E) = \frac{\text{Number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of possible outcomes}} ]
- Complement of an Event:
- [ P(\text{not E}) = 1 - P(E) ]
- Relative Frequency:
- [ \text{Relative Frequency} = \frac{\text{Number of times an event occurs}}{\text{Total number of trials}} ]
