This unit standard does not replace any other unit standard and is not replaced by any other unit standard.

PURPOSE OF THE UNIT STANDARD

People credited with this unit standard are able to:

Describe and interpret the environment geometrically

Use scales to interpret maps and to draw simple maps to scale

Draw different views of objects in real life situations

Solve measurement problems in the contexts of perimeter, areas and volumes by the selection and use of appropriate formulae

LEARNING ASSUMED TO BE IN PLACE AND RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING

It is assumed that learners undertaking the learning of this unit standard have prior knowledge and skills for reading and writing, working with numbers, operations with numbers and relationships between numbers at ABET level 3.

PROVIDERS CURRENTLY ACCREDITED TO OFFER THIS UNIT STANDARD:

This information shows the current accreditations (i.e. those not past their accreditation end dates), and is the most complete record available to SAQA as of today. Some Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionaries have a lag in their recording systems for provider accreditation, in turn leading to a lag in notifying SAQA of all the providers that they have accredited to offer qualifications and unit standards, as well as any extensions to accreditation end dates. The relevant Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionary should be notified if a record appears to be missing from here.
