Figure 4.1
In Fig. 4.1 there are three shapes: a
rectangle, a circle and a cube The
rectangle has a length and a width: the
length is 2.6cm and the width is 1.7m.
‘Therefore, the area ts 4.42cm*
‘The circle has a radius (r), a diameter
(D) and a circumference (C): the radius is
Jom, the diameter is 2cm and the
circumference is approximately 6.28 cm,
so the area is approximately 3.14cm?.
Practice 1
Look at Figures 4.1, 42 and 43 and
complete the statements:
For example:
1 The area of a rectangle
= length x width
2 The area of the rectangle in Figure 4.1
=442cm?.
length x width
2 = 442cm
h=2em
b= Som
Therefore, ifthe radius of a cirele is 4
the area is approximately 12.6cm*
(Area = xr’).
‘The cube has a length, a width and
height: the height, the length and the
width are all 2em, so the volume is —
om’. Therefore, f the length, width a1
