ObjectivesG g Use Pythagoras’s theorem in 2-D – Understand, recall and use
Pythagoras’ theorem in 2-D – Calculate the length of a side of a
right angled triangle given the lengths of the other two sides in a 2-D shape
– Calculate the length of a diagonal of a rectangle given the length and width of the shape
G z Find circumferences and areas of circles
– Find circumferences and areas of circles
– Recall and use the formulae for the circumference of a circle and the area enclosed by a circle
– Use π ≈ 3.142 or use the π button on a calculator
G aa Calculate volumes of right prisms and shapes made from cubes and cuboids
– Find the volume of a cuboid from counting cubes
– Find the volume of a cylinder – Find the volume of a prism, cube
and cuboid – Recall and use the formula for the
volume of a cuboid
Required knowledgeBefore your students start this unit they should be able to:� Calculate with integers and decimals
using the correct order of operations� Understand and use square numbers
and square roots� Round answers to appropriate degrees of
accuracy� Understand and use the correct units
and dimensions for lengths, areas and volumes
� Calculate area and perimeters of rectangles, triangles and trapezia
� Recognise a range of 2-D shapes by their geometric properties
� Understand and use 2-D representations of 3-D shapes
Rich taskA discussion on the shapes of drinks containers should be fruitful at the start of this investigation with cylinders and cuboids presenting themselves as obvious starting points.Encourage pupils to go beyond integer values and to explore different 3D shapes which they have encountered but generally limited to prisms.Practical considerations might involve the material used to make the container, the area of tabs/overlaps for any nets, the comfortable ‘hand’ size of a container and the ability to stack a container on a shelf.Finally encourage pupils to write a report on their design.An extension might be to work out the length of the longest straw you could attach to your drinks carton (for cuboids).
Development and linksCuboids, cylinders, prism and compound shapes made from them describe many of the shapes of everyday objects. Understanding how to calculate areas and volumes allows manufacturers to design packaging which uses the least amount of raw materials to hold a given volume of product.

Objectives� Understand, recall and use Pythagoras’
theorem in 2-D � Calculate the length of a side of a right
angled triangle given the lengths of the other two sides in a 2-D shape
Useful resources� Mini whiteboards� Coloured squares of paper, of different sizes,
labelled with the square’s area size� Past GCSE question
StarterAsk students to estimate square roots, for example of 10, 12, 18 and 20. Accuracy should be initially between two values, then to a rough decimal point. These can be checked with a calculator.
Teaching NotesAsk pairs of students to recall as much as they can about Pythagoras’ theorem for 2–3 minutes.Share the information, and model the theorem using coloured squares of paper to make three triangles. One where two smaller squares add to less than the third square, one with the two smaller squares totalling the third and one where the two smaller add to more than the third. The triangles illustrated can then be examined as obtuse-angled, right-angled and acute-angled.Check that students can recognise which side of a triangle is the largest; ask them to explain how they know.In pairs, ask students to solve two problems on right-angled triangles. Check results and ask them where they think most mistakes are likely to occur in such problems. Share these points, recording important points as a preliminary to some consolidation.
PlenaryTake a straightforward past GCSE question on the topic, extending it with further questions if necessary. Ask as many individual students as possible to give strategies or procedures for each stage of the question, building up the solution from the whole group. Ask others to help in corrections if necessary, or to disagree and offer alternatives, finally showing a complete and thorough solution.
Exercise commentaryA common mistake made by students where the rule is learned with little context is to assume that a procedure involving adding is always applied. However, students readily see the common sense of the ‘two smaller adding to the larger’ when it is made explicit. It helps to have a mix of problems, finding the hypotenuse or another side, rather than dealing with these as two separate types of problems. The other potential area for error is forgetting to find the square root.
SimplificationProvide students with a template to help organise their calculations.
(hypotenuse)2 � (first short side)2 � (second short side squared)2
(hypotenuse)2 � ( )2 � ( )2
�
hypotenuse � √ _________
� cm
ExtensionInvite students to carryout a dissection and rearrangement proof of the theorem.Draw any right angled triangle and construct squares on each side. Find the middle of the mid-sized square and draw lines parallel and perpendicular to the hypotenuse.Cut out the small square and four triangles, can these be rearranged to fit exactly in the square on the hypotenuse?

Objectives� Find the volume of a cuboid from counting
cubes� Recall and use the formula for the volume of
a cuboid
Useful resources� Number fans� Nets of cuboids worksheet – four having the
same volume (say 24 cm3) and a fifth having a different but close volume (say 25 cm3)
� Isometric paper� Small cubes
StarterAsk students to give responses using a number fan, to questions on simple squares of numbers, cubes of numbers, and square/cube roots.Build more challenging square root questions as appropriate, asking for estimates or nearest whole number answers.This may be extended to cube roots of numbers near to simple solutions.
Teaching NotesBriefly discuss the meaning of the measure volume.Ensure that students understand what a cuboid is, and discuss strategies for finding its volume. Progress from counting cubes to giving the formula (discuss the analogy with finding the area of a rectangle).Discuss the example in the student book – part b is a shape made from two cuboids.Arrange students in groups of three or four. Give out the worksheet showing nets of five different cuboid boxes. The aim is to establish which box will hold more. The group should first discuss and agree on a box before any cutting or assembling, then revise their decisions afterwards.Comparisons of surface area could be an extension to the group work: which has the largest/smallest surface area?Groups should report their findings to the whole class.
PlenaryChallenge students to find as many different cuboids with volume 36 cm3 as they can. Give thinking time before selecting various dimensions from the students. Are these all the possible ways? How do you know? What if half centimetres are allowed?
G7.2 Volume of a cuboid
Exercise commentarySome students believe that the words length, width (or breadth) and height are specific directional dimensions and will want to know which is which, to enable them to process the volume formula. It is worth pointing out that the names are simply for convenience.A better way of applying the formula might be to take any corner (vertex) and use each of the three dimensions there. This again helps to reinforce the use of correct units and the concept of dimensions.Ensure that students write cubed units in their answers.
SimplificationProvide students with isometric paper and ask them to draw the cuboids in question 1 showing individual unit cubes. Ask students how many cubes are in the top layer; agree that this is most easily found as ‘length � width’. Ask how many layers of cubes are there and then how many unit cubes are in the cuboid; agree that this is most easily found as ‘length � width � height’. Turn the paper on its side and agree that the formula still works in the new orientation. As necessary use small cubes to reinforce understanding.
ExtensionDraw a 3 � 3 � 3 cube and challenge students to find its surface area. (54 cm2) A second cuboid also has surface area 54 cm2, challenge students find its dimensions. (1 � 3 � 6).
