Learning Standards
Measurement
for Grades 9-10
 |
Understand measurable attributes of objects and the units, systems, and processes of measurement |
 |
Apply appropriate techniques, tools, and formulas to determine measurements |
Learning Standards
Students engage in problem solving, communicating, reasoning, connecting, and representing as they:
| 10.M.1 |
Calculate perimeter, circumference, and area of common geometric figures such as parallelograms, trapezoids, circles, and triangles.
|
| 10.M.2 |
Given the formula, find the lateral area, surface area, and volume of prisms, pyramids, spheres, cylinders, and cones, e.g., find the volume of a sphere with a specified surface area.
|
| 10.M.3 |
Relate changes in the measurement of one attribute of an object to changes in other attributes, e.g., how changing the radius or height of a cylinder affects its surface area or volume.
|
| 10.M.4 |
Describe the effects of approximate error in measurement and rounding on measurements and on computed values from measurements. |
Exploratory Concepts and Skills
for Grades 9-10 and Single-Subject Courses
- Explore the scientific use of different systems of measurement, e.g., centimeter-gram-second (CGS), Scientific International (SI).
