What is It
Lesson 1
For the purposes of measuring dimensions, measuring tools are used to perform
any work with precision. Measuring instruments are also mainly used to carry out
various types of measurements.
2. Triangles are used for drawing vertical and oblique lines. The most commonly
used triangles are the 45° and the 30° x 60°. Illustrations below show the proper
use of drawing lines and measuring angles using the T-square and triangle.
6
3. Ruler is the most popular type of measuring tool. It is usually 6 or 12 inches in
length. It is needed for measuring sizes and distances. It is also used to
measure things that are small. Most rulers show customary units of
measurement like inches and metric units of measurement such as millimeter
and centimeter.
5. Protractor is used for measuring and setting of angles other than those
obtainable with the triangles.
6. Tape or tape ruler is a concave, spring-steel blade ranging from 1/4" to 1"
wide and 6 to about 300 feet in length, coiled inside a carrying case. Metric
tape ruler comes in comparable widths and lengths up to 10 meters. It provides
an easy means for accurately measuring curved surfaces.
7
7. Tape Measure is used to measure length. They are used to measure many of
the distances that are too long for a ruler to measure easily and they are
flexible, not rigid.
8. Yard Stick/ Meter Stick measures one yard/meter and shows only metric units
of measurement of feet, inches, centimeters and millimeters. It is used to
measure objects that are larger than a piece of paper.
9. Compass is used to draw circles, arcs, radii, and parts of many symbols.
10. Divider is similar to the compass in construction. As the name implies, divider
is used for dividing distances into a number of equal parts by the trial-and-error
method.
8
Steps in Using a Divider
a. Align each arm of the dividers so that one point is laying on the start
point of the measurement you want to transfer, and the other divider
point is laying on the endpoint of that same measurement.
b. Lift the dividers off the measurement you intend to transfer, being
careful not to change their alignment.
c. Place the dividers over the location you'd like to transfer the
measurement to and make a pencil mark to indicate where each of the
dividers' pointers sits. This duplicates the measurement.
Geometric Shapes
Geometric shapes can be defined by combining the specific number of
curves, points and lines as a figure or area closed by a boundary that is created.
Common Geometric Shapes
1. Circle – is a shape that can be made by tracing curve that is always
the same distance from a point that we call the center.
2. Triangle – is a shape that is formed by three straight lines that are
called sides.
3. Rectangle – is a shape that has four sides. The distinguishing
characteristic of a rectangle is that all four angles measure 90°.
4. Rhombus – is a shape formed by four straight lines. Its sides measure
the same length but unlike the rectangle, any of all angles measure
90°.
5. Square – is a type of rectangle, but also a type of rhombus. It has
characteristics of both.
Rhombus
Triangle
Trade Mathematics/Measurement
The word measurement comes from the word "metron" in Greek, meaning a
limited proportion. After the French Revolution, the metre (U.S. meter) was
standardized as the unit for length, and it has been adopted worldwide. When the
meter is used for linear measurement, metric scales are applied. In many areas,
accurate measurement is essential, and since all measurements are necessarily
approximations, it is necessary to make a great deal of effort to make measurements
as accurate as possible.
The basic unit in S.I. measurement is called the meter. The meter is divided into
100 centimeters. Each centimeter is divided into 10 millimeters. They are
abbreviated as follows:
Millimeters mm
Centimeters cm
Decimeters dm
Meters m
In the English system, the inch is divided into 16 graduation lines and the smallest
graduation is read 1/16.
1 1 1 3
3/16 7/16 11/16 15/16 16 16

To read measurement exceeding 1 inch, say 2 inches (2”) and for smaller

graduations, it is read and written as: 2 or 2 in.

B. Inch to feet
100 inches = _________ feet
Solution: Divide 100 inches by 12 inches / feet = 8.34 feet
C. Centimeter to millimeter
10.5 cm = _________ millimeters
Solution: Multiply 10.5 cm by 10 mm / cm = 105 mm
D. Inch to centimeter
5.8 inches = _________ centimeter
Solution: Multiply 5.8 inches by 2.54 cm / inch = 14.732 cm

Percentage, Fraction and Decimal
1. If the first number to be eliminated is less than 5, simply drop it (and the
number to the right of it) and let the last significant digit stand.
Examples:
a. Round off 67.4 mm to whole millimeter.
Solution: Simply drop the .4
Answer: 67
b. Round off 0.3125 (5/16) into two significant digits.
Solution: The first number to be eliminated is 2: Simply drop it
and all numbers to its right(5)
Answer: 0.31
2. If the number to be eliminated is 5 or more, drop the number, then add one to
the last digit retained.
Examples:
a. Round off 54.6 into its nearest ones.
Solution:
The number to be rounded off is 6 which is greater than 5, drop
6 and add one to the last digit retained.
Answer: 55
b. Round off 43.65 into its nearest tenths.
Solution:
The number to be rounded off is 5, drop 5 and add one to 6
which is the last digit retained.
Answer: 43.7
