Objectives
• Measure segments and determine accuracy of
measurement
• Compute with measures
– Sum of the parts equals the whole
Vocabulary
• Line Segment – has two end points and can be
measured
• Precision – is equal to one-half the smallest unit on
the measuring tool
• Congruent – when segments have the same
measure, they are congruent ()
• Equal – numbers (variable and equations) and
measurements of things are equal if the have the
same values
Find the length of
.
The long marks are centimeters, and the shorter marks are
millimeters. There are 10 millimeters for each centimeter.
Answer:
is about 42 millimeters long.
Find the length of
.
The ruler is marked in centimeters. Point R is closer to the
5-centimeter mark than to 4 centimeters.
Answer:
is about 5 centimeters long.
a. Find the length of
Answer: 18 mm
2 ¼ ½ ¾
3 ¼ ½ ¾

Precision
Precision – ½ the smallest unit of
measure on the measuring device
70°F
Smallest Unit of Measure = 1/8 th inch
Precision = (1/8)/2 = 1/16 th inch
60°F
String Length is 2 ¼ ± 1/16 or
between 2 3/16 and 2 5/16 inches long
50°F
1 ¼ ½ ¾
40°F
Smallest Unit of Measure = 2°F
Precision = (2°F)/2 = 1°F
Temperature is 60°F ± 1°F or
between 59°F and 61°F
Find the precision for 32¾ inches. Explain its meaning.
The measuring tool is divided into
-inch increments. Thus,
the measurement is precise to within
Answer: The precision is
be
inches to

inches.
PRECISION Find the precision for each measurement.
Explain its meaning.
a. 88 millimeters
Answer: The precision is 0.5 millimeter. The measurement
could be 87.5 millimeters to 88.5 millimeters.
b.
Answer: The precision is
could be
inch. The measurement

Whole = Sum of its Parts
Any distance can be broken into pieces and
the sum of those pieces is equal to the whole
distance

The whole length, AD, is equal to the sum of its
parts, AB + BC + CD
AD = AB + BC + CD

Summary & Homework
• Summary:
– The precision of any measurement depends on
the smallest unit available on the measuring
device
– The measure of a line segment is the sum of the
measure of its parts
WHOLE = SUM OF PARTS
