Math - Term 4 revsion - Chapters 14 & 15
Real life answer will be usually bigger. So, real life means:
Multiply by the scale, for example if it is 1:20, multiply the given value with the scale of 20 (Means
1cm in the drawing represents 20 cm in real life).
From real life to drawing, as its division usually answer will be small.
1 m = 100 cm
Girls, don’t forget to keep the unit after the answer through out the topics’ questions like area,
volume, distance, perimeter, surface area etc.
Tip:
When a shape is reflected in the x axis, first find out the vertices of the given shape. As the
shape is reflected on the x axis, we need to change the y coordinate into negative and vice
versa (reflection at y axis, in the vertices coordinates, x value we need to change into
negative) and then draw the reflected shape in that quadrant
14.5 Rotating Shapes
Rotate the shape – means rotatio – not sliding or flipping
90 degree – if its clockwise, the tracing paper should keep in the position of 3 and anticlockwise, it
will be on 9 of a clock.
Girls, Count the number of squares in each side of the given object and multiply each with the
scale factor , so that the proportion remains same. .
Always remember , here, length is the longest one. Height is the thickness/depth , width –
side short one.
Here, as one shape is a cube
(made out of square), all sides remain same. So, the length, width, and height are all the
same.
15.5 Surface area – Cube & Cuboid
Girls, please remember me how to derive the surface area of a cuboid step by step.
First, Area of one top face = length x width (no need to consider height here as it is the top
one)
Area of the front face = length x height
Area of the side face = width x height
So, surface area = 2 x (total added value of the all the 3 product derived above)
In the case of a cube, as all the sides are same, we can just multiply and see the product
and then multiply with 6 (as there are 6 faces altogether)
