The amount of space occupied by a two-dimensional* shape is its area . The area of a shape is usually measured in square units: square millimeters (mm2) and square centimeters (cm2) for smaller areas, and square meters (m2) and square kilometers (km2) for large areas. Very large areas, such as farmland, can be measured in acres. One acre is equal to 4,047m2 (or 4 ,840yd2).

This space can be measured by the number of unit cubes that can fit inside it.

This is called the ambiguous case, area = .l.ab sin C as you do not have enough information about the triangle to draw it. (You can find out how 2 to construct a triangle with two solutions on page 49.) where C is the angle you have been given and is the included angle* For example, a triangle with side a 12cm, side b 1Ocm and angle B 50\u00b0, could look between sides a and b . like either of these: For example, in this triangle, 12cm A two sides and the included 10cm angle are known, so the area 50\u00b0 can be calculated as: 60\u00b0 C ~~~~--~~~--~ B .1. x 9 x 12 x sin 60\u00b0 12cm 2 Angle A is quite different in each of these tria ngles.

A = sin- 1 0.91925333 = 66.8\u00b0 (to 3 s.f.) ~ This angle is correct for the first triangle. To find 15cm the second value of angle A, subtract the first value from 180\u00b0: To find the area, first find the value of A. As all 180\u00b0 - 66.8\u00b0 = 113.2\u00b0 sides are known, use the rearranged cosine rul e: So the possible values of angle A are 66.8\u00b0 and 152+ 52 - 12 2 113.2\u00b0. You can check that this is correct using the sine graph*. If only one solution is needed, cos A = (2 x 15 x 6) always give the smallest answer. (Calculators give this answer automatically.) cos A = 117 180 cos A = 0.65 A = cos- 1 0.65 = 49.458 398 13 = 49.5\u00b0 (3 s.f .} Then calculate the area of the triangle: t x 12 x 15 x sin 49.458 398 13 (Use the unrounded value of A here as the final answer will be rounded.) = .l. x 12 x 15 x 0.75993421 2 = 68.4cm 2 (3 s.f.} So, the area of the triangle is 68.4cm2 (3 s.f.}.

When into groups (called strata) according to certain conducting a survey*, it is often too expensive or characteristics, such as gender, and taking a too time consuming to interview every member random or systematic sample from each group. of a set. In this situa):ion, a sample can be taken. A stratified sample can better represent the The sample should be representative of the whole population if the number chosen from each group, and should not contain any bias*. Taking group for the sample is in the same proportion* a sample is called sampling. as that group is to the population as a whole. Population For example, to select a stratified sample of 50 The whole set from which a sample is taken. For pupils from three year groups containing 126, 105 example, if a sample of 100 boys aged 5-10 is and 119 people respectively, use: taken, the population is all boys aged 5-10. number from stratum x total sample Convenience sampling each stratum popu 1at1\u2022on Taking a sample th.at is easy to collect, such as consulting friends or family. In this example, the population is the number of pupils in all three year groups. Random sampling or simple random sampling Population = (126 + 105+119) = 350 'Selecti'ng a sample in such a way that every member of a population has an equal chance of Year group 1 = 126 x 50 = 18 being chosen . There are many ways to do this, from picking names out of a hat to giving each 350 member of the population a number and using a computer, calculator or chart to produce Year group 2 = 105 x 50 = 15 random numbers. 350 Random sampling is based on the idea that members of a population are homogeneous =Year group 3 = 119 x 50 17 (the same). This is often not true, though, so 350 the results from a small random sample are likely to be less accurate than those gathered So the stratified sample contains 18 pupils from from a larger group. year group 1, 15 from group 2 and 17 from group 3. Systematic sampling Multi-stage sampling Using a particular system for choosing a sample. A method of selecting a sample from another For example, a population might be placed in sample. For example, if a sample of people aged order of age and then every tenth person over 50 were taken, a further sample of women selected for the sample. A sample chosen by this aged over 50 could be taken from this group. method is less random than a random sample. Cluster sampling Quota sampling Dividing a population into groups called clusters, Selecting a sample which contains a specified making a selection of clusters and including each number of members of various groups within member of the chosen clusters in the sample. For a population. These groups are selected before example, schools may each form a cluster, and the sampling takes place. For example, a quota each member of the selected school would be might include 50 men and 50 women, and included in the sample. require half of each group to wear glasses. Sampling error The difference between the data gathered from a sample and the data for a whole population.
