Measurement and Geometry

Using units of measurement

Establish the formulas for areas of rectangles, triangles and parallelograms, and use these in problem-solving (ACMMG159)

Calculate volumes of rectangular prisms (ACMMG160)

Shape

Draw different views of prisms and solids formed from combinations of prisms (ACMMG161)

Location and transformation

Describe translations, reflections in an axis and rotations of multiples of 90° on the Cartesian plane using coordinates. Identify line and rotational symmetries (ACMMG181)

Geometric reasoning

Identify corresponding, alternate and co-interior angles when two straight lines are crossed by a transversal (ACMMG163)

Investigate conditions for two lines to be parallel and solve simple numerical problems using reasoning (ACMMG164)

Demonstrate that the angle sum of a triangle is 180° and use this to find the angle sum of a quadrilateral (ACMMG166)

Classify triangles according to their side and angle properties and describe quadrilaterals (ACMMG165)
