    The document discusses perimeter and area. It defines perimeter as the total length around an enclosed shape and explains how to estimate the perimeter of various shapes using a grid paper. It also defines area as the measurement of the size of a surface. It provides examples of estimating the perimeter of a triangle drawn on a grid and comparing it to the actual measured perimeter. Finally, it discusses the relationship between perimeter and area for rectangles with the same perimeter or same area.

    CHAPTER 10 : PERIMETER AND AREA

    10.1 PERIMETER

    1. Perimeter is the total length around an enclosed area.


    2. The curved distance of a shape can be measured using thread.

    Example 1:

    WORKED EXAMPLE 1

    (a) (b)
    Perimeter = Perimeter =

    A) ESTIMATING THE PERIMETER OF VARIOUS SHAPE AND EVALUATING THE ACCURACY OF


    ESTIMATION.

    3. The perimeter of a shape can be estimated by using a grade paper of equal


    squares or a graph paper.
    4. The accuracy of estimated perimeter can be evaluated by comparing the
    estimated value with the actual measured value of the perimeter.

    Example 2:
    The diagram shows a triangle ABC drawn on a grid square measuring 0.5 cm x 0.5 cm. Find the
    estimated perimeter of the triangle and compare it with the actual value.

    Solution : Count the number of sides of the square grid.


    AB  4 units, BC  6 units, AC  5 units.

    Estimated perimeter of ABC = 4 + 5 + 6


    = 15 units

    AB  2 cm, BC  4.2 cm, and AC  3.1cm.

    Perimeter of ABC = 2 + 4.2 + 3.1


    = 9.3 cm
    Measurement of grid = 2 units = 1 cm
     Actual perimeter of ABC  9.3 2

    = 18.6 units.

    Hence the difference between the estimated value and the actual value
     18.6 15
     3.6 units

    10.2 AREA OF TRIANGLES, PARALLELOGRAMS KITES AND TRAPEZIUMS

    A) ESTIMATING THE AREA OF VARIOUS SHAPES

    1. Area is the measurement of the size of a surface or a region.


    2. The area of a shape can be estimated by using a grade paper with sides of 1
    unit or drawing several straight lines which are 1 unit apart on the shape.

    B) DERIVING THE FORMULAE OF THE AREA OF TRIANGLES AND VARIOUS


    QUADRILATERALS

    10.3 RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PERIMETER AND AREA

    For rectangles with :

    a) the same perimeter,  the area will decrease if the difference


    between the length and the width
    increase.

     the area will be the largest when the


    rectangle is a square.
    b) the same area,  the perimeter will increase if the
    difference between the length and the
    width increase.

     the perimeter will be the smallest when


    the rectangle is a square.
