% Measuring Inline skating is a branch of the skate sport that originated from roller skating. Especially in South America, this sport is extremely popular. In the Netherlands, too, there is a lot of inline skating, for example as a summer alternative to ice skating. The only indoor competition skating rink in the Netherlands is in Heerenveen. The track is 200 metres long and consists of two straight sections and two semi-circles. The radius of the inner track is 13 metres, and the width of the track is 7 metres. With these data you can calculate the area of the track, and the length of the straight sections. © Noordhoff Uitgevers bv Prior Knowledge Units Theory A Units There are many things you can measure. For example, length, time, temperature and speed. Temperature can be measured in degrees Celsius. You could measure that the temperature in the classroom is 22 °C, for example. A degree Celsius is a unit of temperature. Length can be measured in centimetres or metres. For example, you could measure that Laila is 161 cm tall, and Paul 1.58 metres tall. Centimetres and metres are units of length. 1 See the theory above. Give a few more examples of units of length. 2 Write down three units related to measuring a time c area b weight d volume 3 a In the following two sentences the units are missing. Which units are involved? ‘He doesn’t care about a few pounds more or less.’ ‘He exceeded 80 through that bend.’ b On the signs I, II, III and IV below the units are missing. Write down the correct unit for each sign. figure 7.1 4 In the situations below, note down the unit that fits best. I There is a rain barrel in Mr Goose’s garden. He wonders how much water is in it. Il Mr. Goose wants to put a fence around his garden. He wants to know how much fencing he needs. Ill He will also want to get new rolls of turf in his garden. He wants to know how much he needs. 58 Chapter 7 Measuring © Noordhoff Uitgevers bv 7.1 Length Learning objectives You can convert units of length. You can calculate to scale. s In this chapter you are allowed to use the calculator. 01 See figure 7.2. 3®* a What unit is used here? b How many metres is it to Utrecht? figure 7.2 Theory A Units of length Above you can see the historical signposting of the ANWB. The number behind the place name indicates the distance. This distance is measurable. Something that you measure is called a quantity. In this case the quantity of the distance has been measured in the unit of length called kilometre. Other frequently used units of length are millimetre (mm), centimetre (cm) and metre (m). Below the different units of length are shown from biggest to smallest. Each jump to the right means x 10, so 1 km = 10 hm. Each jump to the left means 10, so 5 dm = 0.5 m. UNITS OF LENGTH The international standard unit of distance is metre. The units of length above are derived from there. The k in km stands for ‘kilo’ and means 1000. So 1 km = 1 kilometre = 1000 metres. k = kilo = 1000 da = deca = 10 c = centi = 0.01 h = hecto = 100 d = deci = 0.1 m = milli = 0.001 © Noordhoff Uitgevers bv 7.1 Length 59 km hm dam m dm cm mm Each jump to the right means x 10. 1 hm = 10 dam 5.2 km = 5200 m 58 cm = 580 mm 8.43 dam = 843 dm Each jump to the left means 10. 1 dm = 0.1 m 78.3 dam = 0.783 km 826 hm = 82.6 km 25 mm = 0.025 m Learning objective You can convert units of length. 2 Complete the sentence by entering the correct unit of length, CJ a The Afsluitdijk is more than 30... long. b A jeweller sells necklaces with lengths from 35 to 80... c A football field is about 70... wide. d A jeweller sells rings with diameters from 12 to 22... 3 Fill in.

Along the 45 km long stretch 1600 masts have been erected. 13 000 rails were used. The rails are supported by a sleeper every 80 cm. The line is suitable for speeds up to 200 km per hour. On average, 17000 travellers a day board the train at one of the four Hanzelijn stations. In addition, 4 million tonnes of freight are transported on the Hanzelijn every year. (1 ton = 1000 kg) a The masts are on both sides of the railway. Calculate the average distance between two masts on the same side of the track. b Calculate the length of a steel rail in cm.

This means that 1 cm of the model represents 10000 cm. All the real dimensions are 10000 times bigger than the dimensions of the model. You could also say that all the model’s dimensions are 10000 times smaller than the real dimensions. For scale 1:25, all dimensions of the model are 25 times smaller than in reality. Scale 1:200 means that all the dimensions are 200 times bigger in reality than in the model. Learning objective You can calculate to scale. 8 Rail manager ProRail has recreated the Hanzelijn in Ö® miniature in collaboration with Miniworld Rotterdam on a scale of 1:160.

You can calculate the area of a figure that can be divided into rectangles. 010 Mr. Lambert is going to lay square carpet tiles of □ ®* 1 by 1 metre on his living room floor. The living room is 8 by 5 metres. a How many carpet tiles does he need? b Skirting boards will be installed along the edges of the floor. How many metres of skirting board does he need? figure 7.4 Theory A Perimeter and area The perimeter of a figure is a path that outlines a shape or its length. For example, the perimeter of the heptagon on the side is 35 + 15 + 15 + 16 + 22 + 9+16= 128 mm. The perimeter of a figure is the sum of the length of its sides. figure 7.5 The dimensions are in mm. Area has to do with coverage. The area of a figure indicates how many times the unit of area fits in the figure. A frequently used unit of area is the square centimetre. Notation: cm2. 1 cm2 is the area of a square which is 1 by 1 cm. 5 whole and 2 half-squares of 1 cm2 fit on the figure shown on the right. This means its area is 6 cm2. The area of a figure indicates how many times the unit of area fits in it. Learning objective You can determine the area of a figure on graph paper. © Noordhoff Uitgevers bv 7.2 Area 63 12 Estimate how many cm2 the area of the figure on O®* the right is. figure 7.9 A13 A rectangular piece of land measuring 120 □ ® * by 80 metres is divided into seven pieces.

Around 250 B.C. the Greek mathematician Archimedes demonstrated that the 223 22 actual value of 7t lies between nyp (~ 3.14085) and -y(~ 3.14286). The Dutchman Ludolph van Ceulen caused a sensation in 1596, by calculating no less than 35 decimals of it correctly, which was an enormous achievement for that time. He was so proud of his achievement that he had the decimals engraved on his tombstone. In 1874, before the advent of calculators, the record stood at 527 decimals. In 1882, the German Von Lindemann proved that n has an infinite number of decimals with no regularity. Nowadays you can calculate thousands of decimals of % with an app like Calculate Pi. Memory artist Rick de Jong from Oss, however, doesn’t need an app. On 1 April 2015 he became the European record holder by flawlessly naming the first 22 612 decimals of n. His record was broken in 2020 by the Swede Jonas von Essen, who only made a mistake after 24 063 decimals. 76 Chapter 7 Measuring © Noordhoff Uitgevers bv 051 A round pie is cut into pieces.

A circle sector is an area enclosed by two rays and an arc. The angle between the rays is called the central angle. The central angle of the entire circle is 360°. The area of a sector with central angle 60° is | of the area of the circle. Likewise, the area of the sector with central angle 43 43° is 777 of the area of the circle. 360 a° is 777 of the area of the circle. 360 So the area of the sector with central angle a° is 777 area = 777 it radius2. 360 360 The length of an arc of a sector with central angle a° is — — of the circumference.

Theory A Units of volume Solids like a cuboid and cube have a volume. Volume has to do with filling. The volume of a solid indicates how many times the unit of volume fits in it. A frequently used unit of volume is the cubic centimetre. Notation: cm3. cm3 is called a cubic 1 cm3 is the volume of a cube of 1 by 1 by 1 cm. centimetre. Inside the cuboid of exercise 59, you can fit 24 cubes of 1 cm3. So the volume is 24 cm3. The volume of a solid indicates how many times the unit of volume fits in it. You can calculate the volume of a cuboid with the following formula volume of a cuboid = length width height. For the cuboid in exercise 59 this gives volume = 4 3 2 = 24 cm3. volume of a cuboid = length width height Learning objective You can calculate the volume of a cuboid. 80 Chapter 7 Measuring © Noordhoff Uitgevers bv Frequently used units of volume are m3, dm3 and cm3. 1 dm3 = 1 litre The litre (1) is also often used. 11=1 dm3 You can divide a litre into decilitres, centilitres and millilitres. 1 1 = 10 dl = 100 cl = 1000 ml Below are different units of volume from biggest to smallest.

Then you can get the area of the whole figure by adding up the areas of the individual rectangles. In this exercise, you will work with figures constructed from grid squares, and quarter circles inside grid squares. See the figure on the right. We call the area of a grid square x. The area of a quarter circle in a grid square is called y. 1 The area of figure 7.72a is 2x + 3y. a Explain this. You also see three figures with area 2x + 3y. b Why are these three figures not really different? c Draw three possible different figures with area 2x + 3y. This is not allowed. 2 a Draw a figure with area 3x + y, a figure with area x + 3y and a figure with area 4x + 3y. b Draw a figure with area 5x + 4y. Make sure the figure fits into a 3 by 3 square. 3 The area of figure a on the right is x - y. a Explain why. b The area of figure b is 8x - 2y.
