  1. We have been doing alot in maths on hypotonuse.
    Hypotonuse- The longets side of a right angled triangle
    -The side opposite the right angle.

    Label the sides using the letter of the opposite angle.

    In any right nagled triangle the square of the longest side is equal to the sum of the sqaures of the two shorter sides.

    e2=d2+f2
    u2=v2+w2
    a2=bb2+c2

    Use the square root button on your clacualtor to find n. (Square root = /)
    n2=25
    n=/25
    = 5

    n2=361
    n=/361
    =19

    n2=576
    n2=/576
    = 24


    Pythagorean Triads
    A pythagorean Triad is a set of 3 numbers that obey the pythagorus' theorem.
    For Example 345 is apythagprean triad becasue
    52=32+42
    25=9+16
    25+25

    3 6 8
    82 = 32+62
    64=9+36
    64=65
    Therfore it is not PT

    5 12 13
    132=122+52
    169=144+25
    169=169
    Therefore is is PT

  2. This week in Maths we have been doing more on Pythagoras' Theorem.
    On Thursday we did misalanias Pythagoras which is all the different types of Pythagoras.

  3. We also had a maths test on Friday , which i found easy because i knew everything.

  4. We also had a maths test on Friday which i found easy because i knew everything.We could use calculators and our exercise books.We had 40 minutes to do it, the whole lesson.

  5. This week we hvae starte dthe topic on area.We have learnt about the different fromulas of figuaring out different types of shapes:
    Look at the pictures above:

  6. Perimeter – the length around the outside of a shape
    - Add the length of each side together
    - 1 dimensional ( measure length with a ruler)
    Area – measure the space inside a shape
    - 2 dimensional ( something you can cover) eg mm2, cm2, m2, km2, ha

    1cm2- the area of a square with 1cm sides
    1m2 – the area of a square with 1m sides
    1ha – the area of a square with 100 m


    Area Formulas

    Square: A= S x S or A = S2





    Rectangle: A = B x H



    Triangle: A = b x h ½ x b x h
    2
    Area of special quadrilaterals – any 4 sided shape


    Parallelogram
    - has 2 sets of parallel sides
    - A = b x h


    Trapezium
    - has one set of parallel sides
    - A = ½ h (a +b )



    Kite
    - 2 pairs of sides equal
    - Equal sides are next to each other
    - A – ½ y x ( x & y are the diagonals)




    Rhombus
    - All sides are equal
    - A slanted Square
    - A = ½ x y





    Circles
    Perimeter of a circle:
    C = pi x d
    C = 2 x pi r
    Area of circles:
    Pi x r2
    S x s x pi = are of circle
    Volume of cylinder:
    V= Pi x r2 x h


    Probability:















    Impossible
    - It will never happen
    - It can never happen

    Certain
    - It will always happen
    - It must happen
    Even chance
    - Has the same chance of happening as not


    Simple Event
    - All possible outcome s are equally likely
    E.g. tossing a die is a simple event. Playing a game of soccer is not a simple event
    Sample Space
    - All the possible outcomes for a simple event
    E.g. for tossing a die the sample space is { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

    Probability of event occurring
    P (E) = # FAVOURABLE OUTCOMES
    # TOTAL OUTCOMES

    Complementary events
    Opposite
    When rolling a dies
    P (3) = 1/6
    P (not rolling a 3) = 5/6
    P (3 or not 3) =1/6 + 5/6
    = 1
    P (E’) – means probability of an event will not occur.

  7. In school this week we have started doing geometry.
    Reasoning in Geometry:

    Adjacent Angles - They have a common arm
    - They have a common vertex
    - Next to eachother

    Complementary Angles - add up to 90 degrees
    - C for corner

    Supplementary Angles - add up to 180 degrees
    - S for straight

    In geometry dont forget to give your REASON!

    Example:
    x = 30 + 25 ( Adjacent Angles)
    = 55 degrees

    Y = 90 - 50 ( Complementary Angles)
    = 40 degrees

    Z = 180 - 130 ( Supplementary Angles)
    = 50 degrees




    Angles at a point:

    Reveloution
    Angles at a point add up to 360 degrees

    Example:
    a + b + c + d = 360 degrees

    Vertically opposite angles:

    Angles opposite eachother are equal and are called vertically opposite.
    When two straight lines intersect they make 4 angles.
    Vertically opposite angles are equal.

    Examples:

    x = 360 - 230 ( Angles at a point)( Reveloution)
    = 130 degrees

    Z = 360 - (140 + 90) ( Angles at a point)
    = 130 degree

    P = 128 degrees ( vertically opposite)


    Angles and Parallel lines:
    Parallel lines - are lines that will never meet

    A transversal - is a line that crosses between two or more other lines.

    ll means parallel to

    Arrows along 2 lines means they are parallel

    There are 3 types of angles on parallel lines:

    Alternate Angles - make a Z shape
    - Are equal
    x = 50 degrees (alternate agles on parallel lines)

    Correspnding Angles - make a F shape
    - Are equal
    Z = 40 degrees ( corresponding angles on parallel lines)

    Cointerior angles - make a C shape
    - add up to 180 degrees ( are supplementary)
    Y = 180 - 130 ( coininterior angles on parellel lines)
    = 50 degrees
