Shape and Space - Measures

  1. Step 6
    Use units of measure to estimate, calculate and solve problems in everyday contexts involving length, area, volume, capacity, mass, time, angle and bearings; know rough metric equivalents of imperial measures in daily use (feet, miles, pounds, pints, gallons). View step.

  2. Step 7
    Know and use the formula for the volume of a cuboid; calculate volumes and surface areas of cuboids and shapes made from cuboids. View step.

     
    Deduce and use formulae for the area of a triangle, a parallelogram and a trapezium; calculate areas of compound shapes made from rectangles and triangles. View step.

  3. Step 8
    Know and use the formulae for the area and circumference of a circle. View step.

  4. Step 9
    Recognise that measurements given to the nearest whole unit may be inaccurate by up to one half of the unit in either direction. View step.

     
    Calculate the surface areas and volumes of right prisms; calculate lengths, areas and volumes in right prisms, including cylinders. View step.

  5. Step 10
    Understand and use measures of speed (and other compound measures such as density or pressure) to solve problems. View step.

     
    Understand and apply Pythagoras' theorem when solving problems in two dimensions. View step.
