The nearest star to our solar system is 4.29 light years away. How much is this distance in terms of parsecs? How much parallax would this star (named Alpha Centauri) show when viewed from two locations of the Earth six months apart in its orbit around the Sun?
Just as precise measurements are necessary in science, it is equally important to be able to make rough estimates of quantities using rudimentary ideas and common observations. Think of ways by which you can estimate the following (where an estimate is difficult to obtain, try to get an upper bound on the quantity):

So Anar also tried many different ways to make a boundary for 800 square meters of land.
He made rectangles A, B, and C of different sizes. Find out the length of the boundary of each. How much gold wire will he get for these rectangles?
- A
Gold wire for A = _________ metres - B
Gold wire for B = _________ metres - C
Gold wire for C = __________ metres
But then Anar made an even longer rectangle... See how long!
- D
So he will get __________ metres of gold wire!!
