CHAPTER 10 SURFACE AREA Flashcards
capacity
The amount of fluid (liquid or gas) in a container
cross-section
A ‘slice’ of a solid, taken across the solid rather than along it
limits of accuracy
How accurate a measured value using a measuring instrument can be, equal to half of a unit on the instrument’s scale
mega- (abbreviated M)
A metric prefix meaning one million
micro- (abbreviated m)
A metric prefix meaning one- millionth
prism
A solid shape with identical cross-sections and ends with straight sides
sector
A region of a circle cut off by two radii, shaped like a slice of pizza
surface area
The total area of all the faces of a solid shape
k___- means 1___ (thousand) or 10_
1 k_____ = 1___ grams

milli - means 1/1000 (thousandth) or 10-3
1 millimetre = 1/1000 litre
The l____ of accuracy of a m_______ instrument are +/- ___ of the u___ shown on the instrument’s s____.
The limits of accuracy of a measuring instrument are +/- 0.5 of the unit shown on the instrument’s scale.
The p______ of a shape is the d______ around the shape, the s___ of the lengths of the sides of the s____.
The a___ of a shape is the amount of s______ covered by the shape, m_______ in square u____.
The perimeter of a shape is the distance around the shape, the sum of the lengths of the sides of the shape.
The area of a shape is the amount of surface covered by the shape, measured in square units.
