Dja Dja Wurrung

This exercise connects your study of mathematics with your study of history. While doing this exercise, we should be mindful that the Dja Dja Wurrung people are the traditional owners of the land on which we stand. Let us show our respect by doing this problem to the best of our abilities. A map of their Country is on the next page. This is a complex shape.

Working collaboratively with a fellow mathematician, and using the scale on the • map, estimate the area of the Dja Dja Wurrung Country as accurately as you can.

The area of is approximately 237,629 km2. What proportion of the state • of Victoria is occupied by Dja Dja Wurrung Country?

What do these calculations suggest to you about the history of the Dja Dja Wurrung • Clans?

Estimate the perimeter of the Dja Dja Wurrung Country. • For more information on the Dja Dja Wurrung Clans, see
