GRADE 11 “FIND THE OBJECT”
LEARNING OBJECTIVES At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to: 1. find the area that corresponds to z; 2. follow the steps in finding the area that corresponds to z; and 3. realize the importance of z-table in finding specific area under the normal curve.
Steps in finding the area under the normal curve given a z-value: 1. Express the given z-value into a three-digit number. 2. Using the z-Table, find the first 2 digits on the first column.
Steps in finding the area under the normal curve given a z-value: 3. Find the third digit on the first row on the right. 4. Read the area for probability at the intersection of the row (first 2 digit number) and column (third digit number). The value observed at the intersection indicates the area of the given z-value.
GRADE 11 Example 1. Find the area that corresponds to z=2. Finding the area that corresponds to z = 2 is the same as finding the area between z=0 and z= 2.
Example 2: Find the area that corresponds to z= – 2.5. The negative in the given z-value as z = – 2.5 indicates the location of where that area is in the curve. Since it is a negative, meaning the measurement X that corresponds to z = – 2.5 is located at the left side of the curve. Since the normal curve is symmetrical about the mean, therefore finding the area of z = – 2.5 is the same as finding the area of z = 2.5.
