Mathematics Version 2.0 / Level 10 / Measurement
Content description
solve problems involving the surface area and volume of composite objects using appropriate units
Elaborations
  1. determining the volumes and surface areas of composite solids, formed from a range of right prisms and cylinders, by considering the individual solids from which they are constructed
  2. estimating the surface area and volume of composite objects in practical contexts
  3. using mathematical modelling to provide solutions to problems involving surface area and volume; for example, ascertaining the rainfall that can be saved from a rooftop and the optimal shape and dimensions for rainwater storage based on where it will be located on a property, or determining whether to hire extra freezer space for the amount of ice cream required at a fundraising event for the school or community
