TABLES, CHARTS AND SCHEDULES

 

TOPICS

1. Square and Square Root Tables.
2. Charts, Records and Schedules (tabulated data, flight schedules and timetables)

 

Square and Square Root Tables

The statistical/four figure table can be used to find the squares and square roots of four-digit numbers.

Example 1:

1. With the use of tables, evaluate:

(a) 33.62² (b) 0.36²

Solution:

(a) 33.62²

33.62 lies between 30 and 40. Therefore 33.62²lies between 30² and 40²

30² = 900

40² = 1600

Thus, 33.62²lies between 900 and 1600.

Locate 33 under letter x. Move to the right and locate the number under 6. This number is 1129. Locate the number under difference 2.

This number is 1. Add 1 to 1129 to give 1130.

Therefore, 33.62² = 1130

(b) 0.36 = 3.6 × 10^-1

0.36² = (3.6 × 10^-1)²

= 3.6² × 10^-2

3.6 is between 3 and 4

3² = 9

4² = 16

Therefore 3.6²is between 9 and 16.

From the table of squares of numbers

3.6² = 12.96

Thus,

0.36² = 12.96 × 10^-2

= 0.1296

EXAMPLE 2: Use tables to find:

(a) 3.8−−−√; (b) 38−−√; 380−−−√

Solution:

(a) 3.8−−−√

Look for 3.8 under x in the four-figure table. Locate the four-digit number under 0.

The required number is 1.949

(b) 38 lies between 36 and 49. Therefore, 38−−√ lies between 6 and 7.

Look for 38 under x. Locate the four-digit number under 0, the required number is 6.164. Thus 38−−√ = 6.164

(c) 380 = 3.8 × 10²

380−−−√=3.8−−−√×102−−−√=3.8−−−√×100−−−√=3.8−−−√×10

From (a)

3.8−−−√=1.949

Thus,

380−−−√=1.949×10=19.49

 

CLASS ACTIVITY

Use four figures table to evaluate

1. (a) 5.23² (b) 3.7² (c) 0.56²
2. (a) 5.4−−−√ (b) 37.62−−−−√ (c) 0.463−−−−√

 

Charts, Records and Schedules (tabulated data, flight schedules and timetables)

Use of tables are the most convenient and concise way of presenting numerical data. Tables have a wide range of uses.

They are used to convey a large amount of information.

EXAMPLE: Monthly rainfall chart

		Jan	Feb	Mar	Apr	May	Jun	Jul	Aug	Sep	Oct	Nov	Dec
	Sokoto	0	0	0	10	48	91	155	249	145	15	15	0
	Jos	3	3	28	56	203	226	330	292	213	41	3	3
	Ibadan	10	23	89	137	150	188	160	84	178	155	46	10
	Port Harcourt	66	109	155	262	404	660	531	318	518	460	213	81

Use the table to find the average rainfall for the following

1. Use the table to find the average rainfall for the following;

(i) Sokoto in January

(ii) Jos in May

(iii) Ibadan in july

2. For each town, name the month which has the highest rainfall.
3. For each town, name the month(s) with the lowest rainfall.

Solution

1. (i) 0mm

(ii) 203mm

(iii) 160mm

2. For Sokoto August has the highest rainfall with 249mm

For Jos, July has the the highest rainfall with 330mm

For Ibadan, June has the highest rainfall with 188mm

For Port Harcourt, June has the highest rainfall with 660mm

3. For Sokoto, January, February, March and December have the lowest rainfall

For Jos, January, February, November and December have the lowest rainfall

For Ibadan, January and December have the lowest rainfall

For Port Harcourt, January has the lowest rainfall.

 

PRACTICE EXERCISES

1. The Social Services Department (SSD) of a large city has fixed budget. Table bellow shows how the SSD allocates its budget for raising public awareness in four key areas for the year 2008 to 2010.

	Public awareness areas		Resource allocation
		2008	2009	2010
	Out-of school children	25%	20%	15%
	HIV/AIDS prevention	60%	60%	60%
	Parenting skill	5%	5%	5%
	Substance abuse	10%	15%	20%
	Total	100%	100%	100%

1. Social Service Allocation

(a) What appears to be the greatest priority for the SSD?

(b) What appears to be the lowest priority?

(c) What appears to be a growing area of concern over the period?

2. Find the square roots of the following using table:

(a) 63; (b) 7.3; (c) 720

3. Find the square of the following using tables:

(a) 3.85 (b) 2.4 (c) 135.

 

 

 

Presentation

 

The topic is presented step by step

 

Step 1:

The class teacher revises the previous topics

 

Step 2.

He introduces the new topic

 

Step 3:

The class teacher allows the pupils to give their own examples and he corrects them when the needs arise

 

 

 

Conclusion

The class teacher wraps up or concludes the lesson by giving out a short note to summarize the topic that he or she has just taught.

The class teacher also goes round to make sure that the notes are well copied or well written by the pupils.

He or she makes the necessary corrections when and where the needs arise.
