Positions on the Earth’s surface
- Identify a location on the Earth’s surface using latitude, longitude and position coordinates, with and without using digital tools
- Apply 15° = 1 hour time difference to calculate the time differences between locations on Earth given the relevant longitudes
Time and time differences
- Convert between seconds (s), minutes (min) and hours (h)
- Represent and convert between 12-hour and 24-hour time formats
- Solve a variety of practical problems by calculating elapsed time
- Solve problems involving time zones in Australia, making necessary allowances for daylight saving
- Represent time difference between locations using Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)
- Solve practical problems involving UTC
