53
Q

calculate the area of a rectangle with sides 3.7cm and 5cm

A

Area = 3.7cm x 5cm

= 37mm x 50mm
= 37 x 100 / 2
= 370 / 2
= 185mm
= 18.5cm (squared)

54
Q

calculate the area of a L-shaped room.

6m x 9m x 3m x 7m x A x B

A

A = 3m and B = 2m

Divide the room into 2 rectangles.

Area = (7m x 3m) + (6m x 2m)

= 21m + 12m
= 33m (sq)

55
Q

Calculate the area of a right-angles triangle that is 6mm x 6mm x 90cm

A

Area = (6mm x 6mm) / 2

= 36mm / 2
= 18mm (sq)
= 1.8cm (sq)

56

64
Q

In a quadrilateral, calculate x

^ A = 65 Deg
^ B = 85 Deg
^ C = 127 Deg
^ D = ?

A

All angles inside a quadrilateral add up to 360 Deg

= 360 - (65 + 85 + 127)
= 360 - (150 + 127)
= 360 - 277
= 83
D = 83 Deg

65
Q

Calculate the perimeter of a rectangle with length of 12cm
and a width of 30mm

A

Perimeter = L x 2 + B x 2

= 12cm x 2 + 30mm x 2
= 24cm + 60mm
= 24cm + 6cm
= 30cm

66
Q

Calculate the area of a rectangle with length of 12cm
and a width of 30mm

A

Area = L x W

= 12cm x 3cm
= 36cm (sq)

67
Q

Right- angled Triangle with Sides
7.2cm x 6.5cm x 12.3cm

A

Area = L x H /2

= 7.2 x 6.5 / 2
= (7.2 x 6 + 7.2 x 0.5) / 2
= (42 + 1.2 + 3.5 + 0.1) / 2
= 46.8 / 2
= 23.4cm (sq)

68
Q

Calculate the Surface area of a rectangular prism with measurements:

10cm (l) x 3cm (w) x 5cm (h)

A

Surface Area: 2(L x h + L x B + B x H)

= 2(10cm x 5cm + 10cm x 3cm + 3cm x 5cm)
= 2(50cm(sq) + 30cm(sq) + 15cm(sq))
= 2 x 95cm(sq)
= 190cm (sq)

69

70
Q

An L shape measuring:
75cm x 102cm x 32cm x A x B x C

Calculate the area:

A

A = 51cm B = 43cm C = 51cm

Area = (51cm x 75cm) + (32cm x 51cm)

= 50 x 75 + 75 + 32 x 50 + 32
= 3500 + 250 + 75 + 1500 + 100 + 32
= 3000 + 500 + 200 +50 +70 +5 + 1000 + 500 +100 +30 +2
= 4000 + 1000 + 300 + 100 + 20 + 30 + 7
= 5457cm(sq)
= 54.57m(sq)

71
Q

Volume of prism 9x9x9cm

A

Volume = L (cubed)

= 9x9x9cm
= 81cm(sq) x 9
= 810 - 81
= 729cm(cube)

72
Q

Volume of prism 20m x 3m x 12m

A

Volume = L x B x H

= 20m x 3m x 12m
= 60m(sq) x 12m
= 600 + 120
= 720m(3)

73
Q

Volume of a triangular prism

A

Volume = Area x Height

= (8.5cm x 7cm /2) x 20cm
= (56 + 3.5cm) / 2 x 20cm
=59.5cm / 2 x 20cm
= 595cm (cubed)

= (5600+350) /2 x 200mm
= 5950 / 2 x 200mm
= (2500 + 450 + 25) x 200mm
= 2975 x 200mm
= 595000mm (cubed)
