Matching quantities with units

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

1. Volume = length x width x height => cubic centimetres.

2. Perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width) => metres.

3. Speed = Distance /time => metres per second.

4. Area = length x width => square metres.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Volume = length x width x height

If the length, width and height are measured in centimetre (cm) , then, the unit of the volume will be:

Volume = cm x cm xcm = cm3 i.e cubic centimetres.

2. Perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width)

If the length and width are measured in meter (m), then, the unit of the perimeter will also be in metre (m).

3. Speed = Distance /time

If the unit of distance is measured in metre (m) and the time is measured in second (s), then , the unit of the speed will be:

Speed = Distance /time = m/s i.e metres per second.

4. Area = length x width

If the length and width are measured in metres (m), then, the unit of the area will be:

Area = m x m = m2 i.e square metres

Points M, N, and P are respectively the midpoints of sides AC , BC , and AB of △ABC. Prove that the area of △MNP is on fourth of

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

The area of △MNP is one fourth of the area of △ABC.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the points M, N, and P are the midpoints of sides AC, BC and AB respectively. It means AC, BC and AB are median of the triangle ABC.

Median divides the area of a triangle in two equal parts.

Since the points M, N, and P are the midpoints of sides AC, BC and AB respectively, therefore MN, NP and MP are midsegments of the triangle.

Midsegments are the line segment which are connecting the midpoints of tro sides and parallel to third side. According to midpoint theorem the length of midsegment is half of length of third side.

Since MN, NP and MP are midsegments of the triangle, therefore the length of these sides are half of AB, AC and BC respectively. In triangle ABC and MNP corresponding side are proportional.

$\triangle ABC \sim \triangle NMP$
