Practice Other Chapters from Shape, Space and Measures

This chapter deals with lines, angles, and shapes. We will learn to measure and draw angles. Angle relationships, types of triangles, and their properties are also discussed, along with quadrilaterals, polygons, and circles.

This chapter defines the concepts of perimeter, area, and volume. Questions related to perimeter and area of two-dimensional shapes are included. We also learn to compute the surface areas and volumes of 3-D objects.

This chapter highlights the Pythagoras theorem and similar shapes. It features the applications of this theorem through several questions. We will also understand the concepts of similar triangles, similar shapes, and congruence.

This chapter features scale drawings, bearings, and trigonometry. It teaches us drawing a scale diagram. We will discover our understanding of tangent, cosine, and sine ratios. Solving problems using trigonometry is also explained.

This chapter explores the concept of symmetry. We will learn to draw symmetry in 2-D and 3-D. The properties of circular symmetries are discussed, followed by angle relationships in circles. It also discusses theorems on circle.

This chapter describes vectors and transformations. It talks about simple plane transformations and properties of reflection, rotation, translation, and enlargement. We will also study vectors and perform mathematical operations on them.
