Surface Area and Volume of Common Solid shapes
A prism is a solid which has uniform cross section. Cubes, cuboids, and cylinders are examples of prisms. In general,

Volume of prism = area of uniform cross section X perpendicular height

=area of base x height

Cube Cuboids
Cylinder

Triangular prism

Cube
Volume = l3
Surface area = 6l2

Cuboid
Volume =lbh
Surface area = 2 (lb + lh + bh)

Cylinder
Volume = πr2 h
Curved surface area = 2πrh
Total surface area = 2πrh + 2π r2
= 2πr ( h + r)
Examples
1. Calculate the volumes of the following solids. All lengths are in cm.

a)

s

In the figure above, PQRS is a trapezium

b)

2. Calculate the total surface area of the solids in 1 (b) above

Solutions
1a.) Volume of prisms = area of uniform cross section X perpendicular height
= area of base X length of the prism

Area of PQRS = ½ ( 7 + 4) X /QR/ cm2

4cm
Since /QR/ = / X S/
Consider triangle P X S

/ PX /2 + /XS/2= 52

3 2+ /XS/2 = 25
9 + / XS/2 = 25

/XS/2 = 25 – 9

/XS/2 = 16

/XS/ = √16cm = 4cm

Thus /XS/ = /QR/ = 4cm

Area of PQRS = ½ x ( 7 + 4) x /QR/ cm2
= ½ x 11 x 4 cm2
= 22cm2
Hence,
Volume of Prism = area of uniform cross section X length of prism

= 22cm2 x 12cm
= 264cm3

(b) volume of given cylinder = πr2h
from the given cylinder,

r = d/2 = 14/2 cm = 7cm
h = 4cm
volume of given cylinder = π x (7) 2 x 4cm3
22/7 x 49 x 4cm
= 22 x 28cm3
= 616cm3

2a) To calculate the total surface area of the solid shapes in 1a and b above.

2b) Total surface area of the given cylinder = 2πrh + 2πr2
= 2πr ( h + r)
= 2 x 22/7 x 7 ( 4+ 7 ) cm2
= 44 x 11cm2
= 484 cm2

EVALUATION
1a. A rectangular tank is 76cm long, 50cm wide and 40 cm high. How many litres of water can it hold?
b. Calculate the total surface area of the rectangular tank in question 1a above

Surface area of a Cone
A sector of a circle can be bent to form the curved surface of an open cone. In the figure below, the sector OA x B is of radius l and arc A X B subtends angle θ at O. This sector is bent to form a cone of base radius r and slant height

o

The following points should be noted
The area of the sector is equal to the area of the curved surface of the cone .
The length of arc A x B in the 1st part of the figure above is the same as the circumference of the circular base of the cone in the 2nd part of the figure above
Curved surface area of cone =θ x πl2 …………..0
360
Also,
θ x 2πl = 2 πr
360
Divide both sides by 2π

θ x 2πl = 2 πr
360 2π 2π
θ x l =r
360
divide both sides by l
θ = r
360 l
substitute r/l for θ in equation i) above:
360
Curve surface area of cone =r x πl2
l
= Πrl
Hence,
Total surface area = curved surface area of a cone + area of circular base
= πr l +π r2
= πr ( l + r)

Examples
A paper cone has a diameter of 8cm and a height of 3cm

a). Make a sketch of the cone and hence use Pythagoras theorem to calculate its slant height.

b). Calculate the curved surface area of the cone in terms of π

c ) If the cone is cut and opened out into the sector of a circle. What is the angle of
the sector?

d) Assuming that the paper cone is closed at its base, what will be the total surface area of the closed paper cone?

Solutions.

From the given information about the paper cone,

Diameter = 8cm
:. Radius = diameter
2
= 8cm = 4cm
2
using Pythagoras theorem in the right angled triangle OBC

l2 = /OB/2 + /BC/ 2
l2 = 32 + 42

l2 = 9 + 16
l2 = 25
Take square root of both sides

√ l2 =√ 25
l = 5cm
:.the slant height of the paper cone is 5cm

b) Curve surface area of the cone = πrl
= π x 4 x 5 cm
= 20 πcm2

c)

If the paper cone is cut and opened out into the sector of a circle as shown in the figure above, then
area of sector of circle = curved surface area of the cone

i.eθx π x (5) 2 = 20 x π
360
5
θx π x 25 = 20 x π
360
12
5 θ = 72 x 20
Divide both sides by 5
5 θ =72 x 20
5
5 θ = 72 x 4

θ = 288o

Volume of Pyramids and Volume of cone
In general,
Volume = 1/3 x base area x height

Square based pyramid rectangular based pyramid Cone

:. Volume of square based pyramid = 1/3 x b2 x h
volume of rectangular based pyramid = 1/3 x l x b x h
volume of cone = 1/3 x Πr2 x h

Examples
1.A pyramid 8cm high stands on a rectangular base 6cm by 4cm.Calculate the volume of the pyramid.
2. A right pyramid on a base 4cm square has a slant edge of 6cm.Calculate the volume of the pyramid.
3. Calculate the volume of a cone 14cm in base diameter and 24cm high.
Solutions
1) Volume of a rectangular based pyramid = 1/3 x l x b x h
= 1/3 x 6 x 4 x 8 cm3
= 8 x8 cm3
= 64cm3

2) Considering the square base ABCD

/DB/ 2= /DC/ 2 + /CB/2
Pythagoras rule:

/DB/2 = 42 + 42
/B/2 = 16 + 16.

:. √/DB/ = √ 32

/DB/ = 4 √2 cm
but
/ EB/ = ½ /DB/
Since t is the midpoint of / DB/

Then /EB/ = ½ X 4 X √ 2

= 2 √2 cm.

Now
Consider right angle OEB
OE 2 + EB 2 = ( OB)2
OE 2+ ( 2√2) 2 = ( 6) 2
OE 2 + 4 x 2 = 36
OE 2 + 8 = 36
OE 2 = 36 – 8
OE2 = 28
OE = √28
OE = √4 x 7

OE = 2 x √ 7 cm
OE = 2 √7cm
But OE =height of the pyramid = 2√7
:.volume of square of based pyramid = 1/3 x b2 x h

1/3 x 42 x 2 x √7 cm3

1/3 x 16 x 2 x √7 cm3

= 32 x √7 cm3

32 x 2.646cmm3
3
= 32 x.0.882cm3
= 28. 224cm3
= 28.2cm3 to 1 d.p.

3)

Since
Diameter = 14cm
Radius = diameter
2
= 14 cm.=7cm
2
:. Volume of cone = 1/3 πr2 h
= 1/3 x 22/7 x ( 7 ) 2 x 24

= 1/3 x 22/7 x 49 x 24 cm3
= 22 x 56cm3
= 1232 cm3

(c) The exterior angle

(a) Volumes of frustums of cone, rectangular based pyramid and other pyramids
Many composite solids can be made by joining basic solids together. In the figure below, the composite solids are made as follows:

(a) a cube and a square based pyramid.
(b) A cylinder and cone

Examples:
1. The figure below shows a composite solid consisting of a cube of edge 28cm and a square-based pyramid of height 16cm. Calculate the volume of the solid

2. The outer radius of a cylindrical metal tube is R and t is the thickness of the metal.
(a) Show that the volume V, of metal in a length, I units, of the tube is given by
V = П lt (2R – t)

(b) Hence calculate V when R = 7.5, t = 1 and 1 = 20

Solutions
1. From the diagram of the composite solid given in Question(1)
Volume of = Vol. of + Vol.
Composite solid square-based of
Pyramid cube

= 1/3 b2h + l3

= 1/3 x 28 x 28 x 16 + 283 cm3

= 784 x 16 + 28 x 28 x 28 cm3

= 12544 + 784 x 28 cm3
3

= 12544 + 21952 cm3
3

= 12544 + 65856 cm3
3
= 26133 1/3 cm3

= 26133cm3

Vol. of the Vol. of Vol. of
Cylindrical metal = outside – inside
Tube cylinder cylinder

= П R2l – П r2l ………………1
But
R = t + r ……………….2

Where
R = radius of outside cylinder
t = thickness of the cylindrical metal tube
r = radius of inside cylinder
From equation (2)
r = R – t
And substituting П R – t for r in equ (1):
Vol of the cylindrical = ПR2l – Пr2l
Meta.tube = ПR2l –П (R – t)2l
= ПR2l – П(R2 – 2Rt + t2) l
= ПR2l– ПR2l + 2ПRtl – Пt2l
= 2 П Rtl – Пt2l
= Пlt (2R – t)

(b) When R = 7.5, t = 1 and l = 20, then
Vol. of the cylindrical
Metal tube = П l t (2R – t)
= 22/7 x 20 x 1 (2 x 7.5 – 1)
= 22/7 x 20 x (15 – 1)
= 22/7 x 20 x 14
= 44 x 20
= 880

If a cone or pyramid standing on a horizontal table is cut through parallel to
the table, the top part is smaller cone or pyramid. The other part is called a frustum.
To find the volume or surface area of a frustum, it is necessary to consider the frustum, as a
complete cone (or pyramid) with the smaller cone (or pyramid) removed.

Examples:
1. Volume of a right circular cone is 5 litres. Calculate the volumes of the two parts into which the cone is divided by a plane parallel to the base, one-third of the way down from the vertex to the base. Give your answers to the nearest ml.

Solutions:
From the question,
h = 1
H 3

H = 3h

Also using similar triangles:
r = h = 1
R H 3

Thus:
R = 3r

Vol. of frustum Vol. of – Vol. of
Of cone = big cone small cone

= 1 П R2 l t – 1 П r2 h
3

But vol. of big cone = 5 litres
= 5 x 1000 ml
Since 1 litre = 1000 ml

i.e.
Volume of = 5000 ml
Big cone
1/3 П R2H = 5000 ml
П R2H = 3 x 5000 ml
П R2H = 15000 ml ………. (1)
Also,
From 3h = H
h = H/3

and 3r = R
r = R/3

Thus, vol. of small = 1/3 Пr2h
Cone

= x π x x
=
=
Since from equation (1) above ПR2H = 15000
Then
Vol. of small = =
Thus:
Vol. of frustum of cone = Vol. of big cone – Vol. of small cone

=

= 4814.8m

4815ml

(b) Proofs of angles sum of a triangle = 180o
The sum of angles on a straight line is 180o. in the diagram below, x and y are adjacent angles on a straight line.

When two or more angles add up to 180o they are called supplementary angles so x + y = 180o (supplementary angles)

Examples
Find the unknown angles in the following diagrams:

50o + 70o + a + 2a = 180o (sum of angles on a straight line)
120o + 3a = 180o3a = 180o – 120o = 60o
a = 603 = 20o
2a = 2 x 20o = 40o

EVALUATION
Essential Mathematics for Senior Secondary School 1 Exercise 15.1 No. 1

(c) The exterior angle
The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles.

Given: Any triangle ABC
To prove: ACD = x1 + y1
Construction: Draw CE parallel to BA.
Proof: Let ACE = x and ECD = y
x1 = x (alternate angles, BA//CE)
y1 = y (corresponding angles, BA//CE)
butACD = x + y
∴∠AACD = x1 + y1

Example
In the diagram below, APR is a straight line. Work out the value of x and hence find QPR.

Solution
3x + 2x + 20 = 200 – 4x (Ext. theorem)
5x + 4x = 200 – 20
9x = 180
X = 20o
∴ 200o – 4x = 200o – 4 x 20o
= 200o – 80o = 120o
∴∠QPR = 180o – 120o (sum of angles on a straight line)

The ratio of the angles of a triangle is 3:4:5. Find the smallest and the largest angles.
Solution
The angles are in the ratio 3:4:5,
i.e. 3 + 4 + 5 = 12 parts
but the sum of angles of a triangle is 180o.
1st angle = 312 ×180o = 45o
2nd angle = 412 ×180o = 60o
3rd angle = 312 ×180o = 75o
The smallest angle = 45o and the largest angle is 75o
Check: 45o + 60o + 75o = 180o

Drawing and Bisection of Line Segments
To bisect a given line segment means to divide the given line segment into two parts of equal length. The steps to take to bisect a given line segment are as follows:
Draw the given line segment AB ( let AB = 8.6cm)
With centre A and radius of about ¾ of length of AB, draw an arc above and below the line AB
With centre B and the same radius used in step 2 above, draw arcs to cut the previous arcs in step 2.
Draw a line through the 2 points of inter- section of the pair or arcs obtained from steps 2 and 3 . The line drawn is the perpendicular bisector of line AB.

Thus AE = EB = 4.3cm

EVALUATION
1. Draw a line CD = 11cm
Bisect the line CD
2. Construct the mid point M of the line drawn below

Where length CD = 10.6cm

Construction and Bisection of angles : 90o, 45o, 135o, 22 ½ , 67 ½ o.
To construct angle 90o, take the following steps:
Draw a line BC and mark a point A at which the angle 90o is to be constructed .
With centre B and any suitable radius draw an arc above line BC.
With centre C and the same radius used in step 2, draw an arc to cut the previous Arc at D.
Draw a line through points A and D. thus < DAB = <DAC = 90o

Since 45o = ½ of 90o, angle 90o is bisected to obtain angle 45o. This is shown in the figure below:

Thus < IGF = 45o
Also < HGI = 45o
Similarly 22 ½ o = ½ of 45o, By bisecting angle 45o, we can obtain angle 22 ½ o as shown in the figure below:

Thus <EDB = 22 ½ o. Also <EDB = 22 ½ o
Also 135o = 90o + 45o. Thus by constructing angle 90o at a point on a line and bisecting the 90o on the other side, we can obtain angle 135o. This is shown in the figure below:

Thus <FDE = 135o.
As explained above bisection of angle 135o will give angle 67 ½ o

Bisection of a given Angle.
The step to take for bisecting a given angle are as follows.
1. Draw the given angle ABC i.e<ABC
2. With centre B and any suitable radius, draw an arc to cut AB at D and BC at E.
3. With centre D and any suitable radius, draw an arc
4. With centre E and the same radius as the one used in step (3) above, draw another arc to cut the previous arc at F.
5. Draw the line BF. Line BF is the bisector of ABC. This is shown in the figure below

Thus < FBC = , ABF = ½ <ABC.

EVALUATION
1. Construct angle 135o
2a. Construct angles 22 ½ o
b. Construct angle 67 ½

Construction and bisection of angle: 60o, 30o, 75o, 105o, 120, 150o.
To construct angle 60o, the following steps must be taken:
Draw a line AB and mark the point A at which the angle 60o is to be constructed
With centre A and any convenient radius, draw an arc to cut line AB at C.
With centre C and the same radius used to draw the arc in step 2 above, draw another arc to cut the previous arc at D.
Draw line AD and extend it to E
Then ,EAB = 60o.

To construct angle 30obisect angle 60o to give angle 30o, this is shown in the figure below:

Thus, <ABC = 30o
To construct angle 75o . Since 75o = 60 + ½ of 30o, then first construct angle 90o at a point on a straight line. Next construct angle 60o at the same point where angle 90o has been constructed. Then the angle 30o difference between the angle 90o and 60o is bisected to give 15o on either side .thus 60 o + 15 = 75. This is shown in the figure below:

Thus, <ABC = 75.
Construction of angle 105o .
Angle 105o can be constructed by constructing 60o in the adjacent right angle at E and bisecting the remaining 30o. Thus 105 = 90 + ½ x 30.this is shown in the figure below:

Thus <FED = 105.

To construct angle 120o
the following steps must betaken :
1. Draw a straight line AB and mark a point C on the line where the angle 120o is to be constructed.
2. With centre C and a suitable radius, draw a well extended arc to cut line CB at point D.
3. With centre D and the same radius used in step 2 above draw an arc to cut the extended arc in step 2
at point E.
4. With E as centre and the same radius, draw an arc to cut the extended arc at point F.
5. Draw line CF. Thus <FCB = 120. This is shown in the figure below:

[mediator_tech]

Construction of angle 150 o.
Since 150 = 120o + ½ of 60o, first construct angle 120o on a straight line angle. Then bisect the adjacent 60o angle to get 30o. Thus 30o + 120o on the right hand side gives the required angle 150o. This is shown in the figure below:
<DCB = 150o

TOPIC: Deductive proof
Sum of angles in a triangle
The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180.
The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180.

Given any triangle ABC
To prove: A+B+C=180
Construction:Produce BC to a point X.Draw CP parallel to BA.
Proof:With the lettering of the figure above
a1=a2 (alternate angles)
b1=b2 (corresponding angles)
c+a1+b1 = 180
C+a2+b2 = 180
ABC + A + B = 180
A + B + C = 180

Relationship to angles on a straight line
The sum of angles on a straight line is 180o.
The sum of angles on a straight line is 180o.

Alternate Angles
From the figure above, the following angles are alternate
a = d ; b = c

Vertically Opposite Angles
From the figure above, the following angles are vertically opposite
a = f ; b = e ; c = h ; d = g

Example
Isosceles triangles ABC and ABD are drawn on opposite sides of a common base AB. If ABC= 70 and ADB = 118, calculate ACB and CBD.

Solution

In triangle ABC,
ABC = 70 (given)
BAC = 70 (base angles of isos. Triangle)
Therefore, ACB = 180 – 70 – 70 (angle sum of triangle)
= 40
In triangle ABD,
ADB = 118 (given)
Therefore, ABD + BAD = 180 – 118 (angle sum of triangle)
= 62
Therefore, 2 X ABD = 62 (base angles of isos. Triangle)
ABD = 31
CBD = CBA + ABD = 70 + 31 = 101
ACB = 40 and CBD = 101

Parallelogram

Intercept

In the figure above, the lines AB and CD cut the transversal PQ into three parts. The part of the transversal cut off between the lines is called an intercept. In the figure above, the line segment XY is the intercept
Intercept Theorem
If three or more parallel lines cut off equal intercepts on a transversal, then they cut off equal intercepts on any other transversal.

Given: Three parallel lines cutting a fourth line at A, B, C so that /AB/=/BC/ and cutting another line at X, Y, Z respectively.
To prove:/XY/ = /YZ/.
Construction: Draw XP and YQ parallel to ABC to cut BY and CZ at P and Q respectively.
Proof:
AXPB is a parallelogram (opp. Sides //)
XP = AB (opp side equal)
Similarly /YQ/ = /BC/ (in //gm YQCB)
/XP/ = /YQ/ (given AB = BC )
In triangles XPY, YQZ
/XP/ =/YQ/ (Proved)
X1 = x2 (corr. angles)
Y1 = y2 (corr. angles)
Therefore, triangle XPY = triangle YQZ (AAS)
/XY/ = /YZ/

TOPIC: STATISTICS
CONTENT:

COLLECTION, TABULATION AND PRESENTATION OF DATA

What is statistics? This is defined as the collection of data and the presentation of the collected data in a clearer form, for better interpretation. There are two possible ways of presenting the collected data, for better interpretation and these are:
Tabular Presentation (Tables)
Graphical Presentation (Graphs)

Data:There are two possible ways in which data can be classify and these are Grouped and Ungrouped data.Data is/are sometimes referred to as information. Althoughthey differs in so many ways,i.e,information is wider than data,hence data is found under the information of a certain event.Example,I can gather the information of a class,such as SSS 1,each student in such class has their individual particular,these particulars of each of the student is then known as DATA. Simply put INFORMATION is the collection of data.
When data are collected at first,they are said to be RAW,because they are yet to be arranged in an order of magnitude.Therefore,it is important tore-arrange such data in an order of magnitude,(ascending or Descending, Order)

TYPES OF DATA
Quantitative Data:Since,the word quantitative, refers to as quantity,therefore,quantitative data, takes numeric values(Numbers).Quantitative data is sub-divided into two and these are:
Discrete Data: This data can simply be obtain by mere counting. Such as the number of student in a class, population of a country, number of cars in a garage, number of houses on a street etc.It must be noted that, Discrete data, always take a whole number value, as no counting can be in decimal.eg,43 students and not 42.5 students.
Continuous Data: These data are obtain by measurement, eg, weight, height,age,sizes,scores/marks etc,they can take whole number and decimal.
Qualitative Data: This type of data is concern about the quality of a data. it can be describe in word,eg,taste,colour,make of shoes etc.

It is a common practice to present data in frequency tables. Frequency tables are used for summarising data before analysis.
Example
1)A teacher gives a spelling test to 40 students. The number of errors made by the students is shown in table below. Represent the data in a frequency table.

UNGROUPED DATA
Data are said to be ungroup if and only, each of the quantity/variable. Can stand as a unit without any combination.The variables are not large,therefore,to prepare the frequency table will be very easy.
Tabular Presentation of ungrouped data:
The table used in the presentation of statistical data is known as Frequency distribution table and consist of atleast three Column and in some cases, extra column may be required. The basic column required are listed and defined bellow:
Variable Column (First column):It is mostly denoted with x.This column contains the item collected or required.such as Height,Ages,Weights,Test and Examination Scores of students. The variable column can also contain the population of a country.
Tally Column(Second Column) : The tally is the use of strokes to represent an item collected,it makes the counting and the recording of the Frequency very easy.Tally is always in a bundle of five strokes.
Frequency Column (Third Column):This is denoted with f,It is defined as the number of times an item occur.The use of tally can facilitate the accurate record of the frequency.

Example 1: The weight of some students in SSS1 class in Good Shepherd Schools are as listed below: 55,57,57,59,50,55,61,61,55,57, 57,57,59,55,55,50,55,55,50,57

Calculation of Range, Median and Mode of Ungrouped Data

RANGE
The range of a set of numbers is the difference between the largest and the smallest numbers.
Example: Find the range of the following set of scores: 79, 60, 52, 34, 58, 60.
Solution
Arrange the set in rank order: 79, 60, 60, 58, 52, 34
The range is 79 – 34 = 45

THE MEAN
There are many kinds of average. T hemean or arithmetic mean, is the most common kind. If there are n numbers in a set, then
Mean = sum of the numbers in the set/ n

Examples
1)Calculate the mean of the following set of numbers.
176 174 178 181 174
175 179 180 177 182

Solution
Mean = 176 + 174 + 178 + …. + 182/10
= 1776/10
= 177.6
2)Five children have an average age of 7 years 11 months . If the youngest child is not included, the average increares to 8 years 4 months. Find the age of the youngest child.
Solution
Total age of all five children
= 5 x 7 yr 11 mo
= 35 yr 55 mo
= 35 yr + 4 yr 7 mo
= 39 yr 7 mo
Total age of the four older children
= 4 x 8 yr 4 mo
= 32 yr 16 mo
= 32yr + 1 yr 4 mo
= 33 yr 4 mo
Age of youngest child
= 39yr 7 mo – 33 yr 4 mo
= 6 yr 3 mo
Evaluation
Find x if the mean of the numbers 13, 2x, 0, 5x and 11 is 9. Also find the range of the set of numbers.
A mother has seven children. The mean age of the children is 13 years 2 months. If the mother’s age is included, the mean age rises to 17 years 7 months. Calculate the age of mother.

MEDIAN AND MODE
MEDIAN: If a set of numbers is arranged in order of size, the middle term is called the median. If there is an even number of terms, the median is the arithmetic mean of the two middle terms.
Examples
Find the median of a) 15, 11, 8, 21, 17, 3, 8 b) 3.8, 2.1, 4.4, 8.3, 9.2, 5.0.
Solution
a)Arrange the numbers in rank order (i.e from highest to lowest).
21, 17, 15, 11, 8, 8, 3
There are seven numbers. The median is the 4th number, 11 .
b)Arrange the numbers from the lowest to highest.
2.1, 3.8, 4.4, 5.0, 8.3, 9.2
There are six numbers. The median is the mean of the 3rd and 4th terms.
Median = (4.4 + 5.0) /2
= 4.7

MODE: The mode of a set of numbers is the number which appears most often, i.e. the number with the greatest frequency.
Example: Twenty-one students did an experiment to find the melting point of naphthalene. The table below shows their results. What was a) the modal temperature b) the median temperature?
temperature (oC) 78 79 80 81 82 83 90
frequency 1 2 7 5 3 2 1
a)Seven students recorded a temperature of 80oC. This was the most frequent result.
Mode = 80oC
b)There were 21 students. The median is the 11th temperature. If the temperatures were written down in order, there would be one of 78oC, two of 79oC, seven of 80oC, and so on. Since 1 +2 + 7 = 10, the 11th temperature is one of the five 81oCs.
Median = 81o C.

EVALUATION
For the following set of numbers:
13, 14, 14, 15, 18, 18, 19, 19, 19, 21
a)state the median, b) state the mode, c) calcilate the mean.

TOPIC:Collection, Tabulation and Presentation of Grouped Data

GROUPED DATA:Data are said to grouped,if two or more values are put together as one under one cell.In this case the variable column(first column) is known as Class interval,there are other parameters associated with grouped data and they are as listed below
Class Interval: 1-10, 11-20, 21-30………..
Class Boundaries:It is the possible extra length,created for the class interval:
0.5-10.5, 10.5-20.5, 20.5-30.5………
Class mark/Mid mark(x):1+10,11+20,21+30…………
2 2 2
Therefore,class marks are:5.5, 15.5, 25.5………
This is also known as class size,It is the difference between the UPPER class interval and the LOWER class interval.
When a given data has a large number of values, it is cumbersome to prepare its frequency table. For example, the table below show scores out of 60 obtained by SS 3 students in a test:
30 12 58 23 25 14 8 20 5 35
27 38 53 32 36 15 14 37 13 50
31 19 34 51 25 30 39 10 42 33
55 16 45 18 56
If the above data is organised in a frequency table as in example 22.1, the table will show 35 differentsocres, each of them occurring 1 time except 25 and 14 which occur 2 times. So the frequency table and the bar chart of this data would not be very useful because the result would show no pattern. To overcome this problem, we can organise the data into groups or classes. Before we group the data, we consider the range first which is 5 – 58. With this range the data can be grouped into class intervals such as: 1 – 10, 11 – 20, 21 – 30, 31 – 40, 41 – 50, 51 – 60.

When a data is divided into groups it is called a grouped frequency distribution. The groups or classes into which the data are arranged are called class intervals. The first class interval is 1 – 10, the second class interval is 11 – 20, etc. since each class interval covers 10 possible marks, we say that the class width is 10 marks. The frequency distribution table for this data is shown in table (a) below:

Table (a)

Total

Note that in a grouped discrete data, the data are usually whole numbers. For this reason, the class intervals do not overlap because each mark can only appear in each interval. So it is wrong to use intervals such as 1 – 10, 10 – 20, 20 – 30 because 10 appears in both the 1st and the 2nd class intervals and 20 in the 2nd and 3rd class intervals. However, when we group discrete data, we are actually treating it as though it was continuous.

Grouped Continuous data
When dealing with continuous data, the variable is measured on a continuous scale. It is important to know where to place values that appear to be between groups or classes. For example, the frequency distribution in table (b) below shows the weight of 50 students to the nearest kg.
Weight
40 – 44
45 – 49
50 – 54
55 – 59
60 – 64
Frequency
5
8
15
12
10

This data is continuous, so we need to find the class boundaries (or the class mid value) and the width of class intervals.

Class limits
The end numbers of each class interval are known as the class limits of that interval. In the table above the 1stclass is 40 – 44. These figures give the class interval.The end numbers 40 and 44 are called the class limits. 40 is the lower class limit and 44 is the upper class limit.
Similarly, for the 2nd class the class interval is 45 – 49. 45 is the lower class limit and 49 is the upper class limit.

Class boundaries
When a data is given to the nearest unit, the class interval 40 – 44 theoretically includes all weights from 39.5kg to 44.5kg. we say that the 1st class interval has class boundaries of 39.5kg and 44.5kg.
39.5kg is the lower class boundary and 44.5kg is the upper class boundary.

Each class boundary can be found by adding the upper limit of one class to the lower limit of the next class and dividing the result by 2.

For the 2nd class
Lower class boundary = 49 +452=44.5kg
Upper class boundary 49 +502=49.5kg

For the 3rd class
Lowe class boundary = 49.5kg
Upper class boundary = 54 +552=54.5kg
and so on.
Noticethat in this case for each class interval:
To obtain the lower class boundary, subtract 0.5 from the lower class limit.
To obtain the upper class boundary add 0.5 to the upper class limit.

Class width of a class interval
Theclass width is also called the class size.
Class width = upper class boundary – lower class boundary
For example, for 1st interval,
Class width = 44.5 – 39.3 = 5
For 2nd interval,
Class width = 49.5 – 44.5 = 5

Class mid-value (class mark)
The mid-value of a class is known as the class mark. For a given class interval, the class mid-value is exactly half way between the lower limit and the upper limit.
Or class mid-value
= lower class boundary + upper class boundary2
Forexample, the class mid-value of the 1st interval = 39.5 +44.42=42
2ndinterval =44.5 +49.52=47, etc.

EVALUATION
The weights of some students in a class of group of students to the nearest kg are given below:
65, 70, 60, 46, 51, 55, 59, 63, 68, 53, 47, 53, 72, 53, 67, 62, 64, 70, 57, 56

WEEK NINE Date……………………….
TOPIC: Calculation of Range, Median and Mode of Grouped data

RANGE: This is defined as the difference between the HIGHEST variable and the LEAST variable.

Example: Find the range of the following distribution: 2.2, 2.5, 2.2, 1.6, 1.8, 2.7,and 1.4
Solution: Range= Highest score – Lowest score
Highest score = 2.8
Least score = 1.4
Range = 2.8 – 1.4 = 1.4
The above example is ungrouped data; therefore, the range is as simple as that.
To find the range from Grouped, just identify the highest (Upper) class interval and the Least (Lower) Class interval and find the difference.

Example 1: find the range of the distribution:
1-10 11-20 21-30 31- 40 and 41- 50
Highest = 50
Least = 1
Range = 50 – 1 = 49

THE MEAN: This is also known as Arithmetic mean, it is denoted with the symbol X.Simply put, arithmetic mean is also known as average.
For simple data, Such as: EXAMPLE (1) 2.2, 2.5, 2.2, 1.6, 1.8, 2.7, and 1.4, to calculate the arithmetic mean,the required formula is the same as that of the average: e g
MEAN = SUM OF THE ALL VARIABLES/SCORES
NUMBER VARIABLES/SCORES

2.2 + 2.5 + 2.2 + 1.6 + 1.8 + 2.7 + 1.4 = 14.4 = 2.06
7 7
The basic formular for the calculation of the arithmetic mean is given below:
X = ∑Fx where,∑ (Sigma) means summation.
∑F

Hence,Mean (X) = Sum of the product of the frequency and scores
Sum of the frequencies

EXAMPLE 2: The table below gives the scores of a group of students in a mathematics test

Calculate the mean mark of the distribution:
Solution (Method,1)
Mean = ∑Fx= ( 2X 2) + (3 X 4) + (4 X 7) + ( 6X 3) + ( 7X2)
∑F 2 + 4 + 7 + 2 + 3 + 2

= 4 + 12 + 28 + 18 + 14

= 86 = 4.3

∑fx= 86 and ∑ = 20
therefore,Mean = 86 = 4.3

ARITHMETIC MEAN FROM GROUPED DATA:
To calculate the arithmetic mean from grouped data, a frequency table is necessary, only the Class intervals, frequencies, class marks(Mid Mark) and fx column is required.
EXAMPLE 3:The distributions of the waiting time for some students in a school is given as follows:

Waiting Time (minuetes) Number of customers

2.5 – 2.9 18
3.0 – 3.4 10

∑ f = 50
∑fx=142.0

Mean Time (Average Time) = ∑fx= 142.0 = 2.8 minutes
∑f 50

THE MODE
The mode is the variable or score with the highest frequency. The variable with the highest occurrence or which appears most in an event is known as the MODE.

EXAMPLE: Determine the modal mark in the distribution table:
Marks
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
Frequency
5
3
2
6
5
1
3

Solution: Modal mark = 7 with the frequency of 6.
It is possible to record more than one variable as the modal mark.When only one number appears most (as mode) it is said UNIMODAL.When two numbers appears as the mode it is said to be BIMODAL and when more than two numbers appear as mode it is said to be MULTIMODAL.

THE MEDIAN
Median is the number(s) which appears at the middle.It is possible for two numbers to appear at the middle,especially when the total variable is even number,in such a case,the average of the two mid numbers,is calculated as the MEDIAN.it must be noted that before the median is picked or calculated,the variables or scores must be arranged in an order of magnitude.i.e,ascending or Descending Order of Magnitude.

EXAMPLE: Calculate the median of the distribution:
2, 6, 4, 5, 5, 8, 8, 6, 6, 5, 9, 9, 2, 7, 4, 6, 3, 5, 6, 2, 7, 2, 9, 8, 10,6
Steps in the variables in an order of magnitude
:2,2,2,2,3,4,4,5,5,5,5,6,6,6,6,6,6,7,7,8,8,8,9,9,9,10 calculating MEDIAN from ungrouped (even) variables
STEP (i) Rearrange
STEP(ii),Divide total number by 2. i.e,26/2=13.
STEP (iii) Count 13 numbers from both left and right
STEP (iv) subtract one from each, result is 12.Hence 12 numbers are then counted from both left and right as shown below: 2,2,2,2,3,4,4,5,5,5,5,6, 6,6 ,6,6,6,7,7,8,8,8,9,9,9,10
From the above, two numbers are at the centre (6, 6) therefore the average of these numbers is the

median= 6 + 6 = 12 = 6. Therefore,median = 6
2 2
EXAMPLE: 2
Find the median of the scores below:
2.0, 1.8, 3.9, 4.5, 2.6, 3.7, 5.0, 2.1 and 3.3
Solution:
Rearranging the scores: 1.8, 2.0 ,2.1, 2.6, 3.3, 3.7, 3.9, 4.5, 5.0
There are nine scores in all; 9/2= 4.5
Counting four numbers from both left and right 1.8, 2.0 ,2.1, 2.6, 3.3, 3.7, 3.9, 4.5, 5.0
MEDIAN = 3.3

Graphical Presentation of data; the diagrammatic representation of collected data is known as the graphical presentation. Statistical data is interpret from graphs, than the use of frequency distribution table, as the graphs give a very clear pictures of data. There are various diagrams or graphs associated with statistics some of these are; BAR CHAT,PIE CHART,HISTOGRAM,CUMMULATVE CURVE(OGIVE),FREQUENCY POLYGON and FREQUENCY CURVE.

THE BAR CHART
This is the using of rectangular bars in representing collected data. Each of the bars in the bar chart are of the same width but different heights, the height of which is proportional to the frequency of the distribution. i.e. the higher the frequency, the taller the bars and the lower the frequency the shorter the bar.In between each of the bars are gaps which are also equal in width. It is not necessary for the spaces and the width of each bars to be the same.Bar chart is used to display qualitative and discrete data.The frequencies are recorded along the vertical axis while the variables are recorded along the horizontal axis.

EXAMPLE:
The table below shows the number of bottles of soft drinks sold in GODSHEPHRD restaurant on a Thursday. Draw a bar chart to display the information and the modal drink.

PIE CHART
This is also known as divided Circles. A pie chart is a circle divided into sectors. Each angles in the sector is proportional to the frequencies. The higher the frequency the higher the Sectoral angles and the larger the sector. To prepare a pie chart,a frequency table is necessary, to display the Variables,Frequecies and the Sectoral angles.
Sectoral angles is given by the formula, FREQUECY X 360
SUM OF FREQUECIES
Students must use a pair of compasses and a protractor in constructing a pie chart, free hand sketch must not be used at all, as each Sectoral angles represent a certain angle, therefore,the angle must be measured accurately with a protractor.

Example 3In a certain school,the lesson periods for each week are as itemised below:
ENGLISH 10; MATHEMATICS 7; BIOLOGY 3; STATISTICS 4; IGBO 3; OTHERS 9.Draw a pie chart to illustrate the information.

Solution:

Step 1: Construct a simple frequency table as shown below;
SUBJECTS NO OF PERIODS (f) SECTORAL ANGLES (Degrees)
ENGLISH 10 10/36 X 360 = 100
MATHEMATICS 7 7/36 X 360 = 70
BIOLOGY 3 3/36 X 360 = 30
STATISTICS 4 4/ 36 X 360 = 40
IGBO 3 3/ 36 X 360 = 30
OTHERS 4 4/ 36 X 360 = 40

SUM OF (F) = 36

Step 2; construct a pie chart using the Sectoral angles above, with protractor

THE HSTOGRAM
: Histogram is a statistical diagram, which involves the use of rectangular bars in representing collected data. The bars in Histogram are also of the same width, while the height of each bar is proportional to the frequency. The bars in histogram are not to be spaced at all, like those of bar chart, as mentioned above. Histogram is very similar to bar chart. The Histogram is mostly used for grouped data.

Example:
Construct a Histogram for the distribution below:

Calculate
The mean
The variance
The standard deviation

Solution
Let xm represents the mid-value (or class mark) of the interval.
x = fxmf = 99050=19.8h
Now subtract 19.8 from each value in the 2nd column to obtain the results in the 5th column. Then complete the other two columns as shown in the table.
S2 = fx – x2f = 323850=64.76
Variance = 64.8h to 3 s.f.
S = 64.76 = 8.047h
Standard deviation is 8.05h to 3 s.f.
