“KING HENRY” Metric Measurements• Look at the prefixes

– “Kilo” is going to be large 1 kilometer(km) is a little more than ½ of a mile– “milli” is going to be small mm (about the thickness of a fingernail)

King Henry Died Unexpectedly Drinking Chocolate Milk

Kilo- Hecto- Deka- Unexpectedly (UNIT) (gram/meter/liter) Deci- Cm Milli-

As you move right ,move decimal to the right (# gets smaller)

As you move left, move decimal to left (# gets larger)

7.25 L = ?? kL

Think: go to unit…move left 1, 2, 3… SO move decimal 3 spaces left! 7.25 L = .00725 kL

TemperatureCelsius vs. Fahrenheit

• Celsius: water freezes at 0C and boils at 100 C• Fahrenheit: water freezes at 32F and boils at

212 F• Students have to know Celsius!!!

Perimeter, Area, and Volume• Perimeter is the distance around

– think fencing in something– Units are whatever you are using to measure

• Area is how much flat space is occupied– Think about painting a wall, wallpaper, grass on a lawn– Always in Square Units

• Volume is how much space is occupied in 3D– Think pouring concrete, how much liquid will go– Always in cubic units.

Coordinate Plane• Ordered Pairs (x, y)

– the first number tells you how far left or right to go from the origin

– The second number tells you how far up or down to go from the origin

• Quadrants– The x-axis and y-axis break the coordinate plane into 4

Quadrants– Named I, II, III, and IV starting in upper right and

moving counterclockwise.

Ratio/ Proportion Word Problems

• Ratio is the comparison of two numbers.• Proportions are when you set two ratio equal to

one another– Be sure to keep units in the same place– To solve, cross multiply

Ratio/ Proportion Word ProblemsQ9: On a map of Georgia, one inch is equivalent to

50 miles (1 inch = 50 miles). If the distance between two towns is 1.75 inches, what is the actual distance between the towns?A. 8.75 milesB. 50.75 milesC. 65 milesD. 87.5 miles

D) 87.5

Sum of Interior Angles of a Polygon

• Use 180(n-2), where n is the number of sides in polygon

• Or divide the shape into triangles and multiply the number of triangles by 180 (easiest)

180 X 4 = 720 or180 x ( 6 – 2 ) = 720

Pythagorean Theorem

• Use only with RIGHT TRIANGLES

• a2 + b2 = c2

– c is the hypotenuse– a & b are legs of the triangle
