Practice Other Chapters from Handling Data and Measures

Cambridge Lower Secondary Maths Stage 9: Student's Book>Handling Data and Measures>Measures

In this chapter, we will learn about measures. It covers solving problems involving units of measurements in a variety of contexts. We will also discover conversions between different metric measures of area and volume.

Cambridge Lower Secondary Maths Stage 9: Student's Book>Handling Data and Measures>Data Collection and Averages

This chapter features data collection and averages. We will explore the use of statistical methods and identify various sources of relevant data. It will also teach us to design, trial, and refine data collection sheets and calculate statistics.

Cambridge Lower Secondary Maths Stage 9: Student's Book>Handling Data and Measures>Statistical Graphs

This chapter explores statistical graphs. It throws light on selecting, drawing, and interpreting diagrams and graphs. It includes frequency diagrams, line graphs, scatter graphs, and stem and leaf diagrams.

Cambridge Lower Secondary Maths Stage 9: Student's Book>Handling Data and Measures>Interpreting and Comparing Data

This chapter helps us interpret and compare data. We will learn how to interpret tables, graphs, and diagrams. Comparing two or more distributions is taught here. It also throws light on calculating mean, median, and mode.

Cambridge Lower Secondary Maths Stage 9: Student's Book>Handling Data and Measures>Describing and Combining Transformations

This chapter covers describing and combining transformations. We will learn how to carry out, recognise, and describe translations, reflections, rotations, and enlargements. We will also study combining transformations in 2D and 3D.

Cambridge Lower Secondary Maths Stage 9: Student's Book>Handling Data and Measures>Speed and Land Area

This chapter will help us understand speed and land area. We will learn to solve problems involving average speed here. The conversion between hectares and square meters is taught here. It also features problems involving acceleration or density.

Cambridge Lower Secondary Maths Stage 9: Student's Book>Handling Data and Measures>Pythagoras' Theorem

This chapter highlights the Pythagoras theorem. It aims to teach us the use of this theorem to solve two-dimensional problems involving right-angled triangles. We will also solve geometrical problems in three dimensions.

Cambridge Lower Secondary Maths Stage 9: Student's Book>Handling Data and Measures>Bearings, Maps and Loci

The chapter features bearings, maps, and loci. We will learn to use bearings to solve problems involving distance and direction. It sheds light on making and using scale drawings and interpreting maps. It also explains finding the locus of a point.

Cambridge Lower Secondary Maths Stage 9: Student's Book>Handling Data and Measures>Probability

This chapter details the concepts around probability. It delves deep into solving probability problems. We will explore the sample space diagram and relative frequency, and use this to compare outcomes of an experiment.
