- Area of a polygon: A = Fn / 2 (where F is the number of sides and n is the length of each side)
- Volume of a pyramid: V = Abase * h / 3 (where Abase is the area of the base and h is the height)
- Area of a circle: A = 4πR2
- Volume of a sphere: V = 4πR3 / 3

Production Units
Locutorios
Recording interviews, news discussions, and musical performances take place in the locutorio. Key features include:
- Microphones: Common response microphones adapted to the human voice, connected to a junction box at the announcer’s table.
- Monitoring: Speakers allow commentators and guests to listen to the generated signal. “On the air” and “open” signals indicate speaker activation.
- Acoustic Conditioning: Walls and ceilings are
Alarm System Types and Components
Alarm Systems
Types of Alarm Systems
There are three main types of alarm systems:
- Anti-theft and intrusion
- Fire and leakage
- Monitoring of industrial processes
Anti-theft and Intrusion Alarms
Burglar alarms protect sites in the absence of the owner and, in some cases, in their presence. These systems warn of attempted theft or intrusion, deterring attempts or fooling a thief with secret activation.
Fire Alarms
Fire detectors vary depending on the calculated risk for each site. Local systems exist in places

Information and Communication
Information is the processed data that provides knowledge. Communication is the process of transmitting information between a sender and a receiver, which can be unidirectional or bidirectional (e.g., reading, watching TV). The communication process involves:
- Issuer: The source of information.
- Message: The data or information itself.
- Code: The representation of the information.
- Channel: The medium through which information
Understanding MIC Techniques and ISDN Functional Groups
MIC Techniques: Permit digital-analog conversion to optimize signal transmission. Digital operations are based on three processes:
- Sampling: Transforming an analog signal into a series of pulses (PAM or Pulse Amplitude Modulation). The sampling frequency must be greater than twice the maximum frequency of the original signal (Nyquist criterion, Fmues ≥ 2.fmax). Commonly used frequencies are 8 KHz (8,000 samples per second).
- Quantization: Replacing infinite values with a discrete number of values,
Understanding Transducers: Types, Applications, and Functionality
Transducers: Converting Magnitude into Measurable Output
Transducers transform physical magnitudes into another output for easier processing. They are essential in sensors for capturing information within a system for feedback. Transducers and sensors are fundamentally the same, differing only in their placement.
Position, Proximity, and Displacement Transducers
These transducers measure position, proximity, and displacement using various methods:
- Resistive: Based on electrical resistance variation,
