All 5 lessons in Standard Form & Approximation II

  1. 1. Standard Form Calculations Revisited and Extended

    Evaluate compound decimal expressions without mathematical tables by using a conversion-first strategy.

  2. 2. Roots and Radicals in Standard Form

    Square numbers and evaluate the square root of numbers in standard form using the even-exponent strategy.

  3. 3. Significant Figures: Harder Cases, Ambiguous Zeros, and Reverse Problems

    Determine the significance of trailing zeros, avoid compounding errors, and find the true range of values implied by a rounded measurement.

  4. 4. Error Has a Percentage: Measuring the Quality of Approximations

    Calculate absolute error and percentage error using the standard formula.

  5. 5. Error in Context: Range of Values, Derived Quantities, and Backward Problems

    Calculate the percentage error of derived quantities like area and solve backward problems to find actual measurements.
