Measurement
Big Idea: Measurement
You can use formulas
to find the volumes of
various solids
YOUR TASK
Jack and Maureen
are opening an ice
hotel. The structure
and furniture are
made out of ice
Big Idea: Measurement
They must determine the weight of some of
the ice furniture to decide the size of the
crane they needed to lift each piece of ice
into place
Maureen knows that ice weighs
approximately 62.4 pounds per cubic foot
Find the approximate weight of each of
the individual figures described in #1, 2,
and 3 on the next slide
Round the weights to the nearest tenth
Big Idea: Measurement
1. The stage in the banquet hall measures 22
feet by 15 feet by 4 feet
2. Two cylindrical pillars will flank the front
door. Each cylinder has a diameter of 1
foot and height of 9 feet
3. A series of four spheres will decorate the
eception area. The largest sphere has a
diameter of four feet. The other three
spheres have diameters of 2 feet, 1 foot,
and ½ feet
Big Idea: Measurement
Using detailed steps, describe your solution
to the three problems. Be sure you list all
formulas and show all the math steps that
you did.
Your steps should be clear enough so that
any geometry student can complete them
Using Geometry Language
In your writing you will need to use the
appropriate names for the figures and
their parts
Examples:
Rectangular prism
Sphere
Cylinde
Volume
Radius
Base
Height
Submit your document as an Attachment
Submit your solutions in a single Microsoft Word
or PDF document so that it can be scanned by the
system
Include this header info at the top
Your first and last names
Assignment name
Date you completed it
Type in paragraph form with appropriate details and
explanations.
Use geometry language and include any supporting
math steps including general formulas used.
Include any supporting graphs or diagrams inserted into
the document.
Submit your document to the submission link in the unit
folder as an attachment.
Additional Support
This assignment will likely require multiple skills
from the chapter. Start by reviewing the chapter in
the online textbook and look for skills you can use.
Email your teacher if you’re stuck on this
assignment. They will help you get started and they
will answer your questions.
The remaining slides are the same
for all Big Ideas.
They may help you with formatting
and submitting.
Using Geometry Language
Microsoft Word supports some symbols
However it might be easier to write- out
the names of objects and thei
elationships
Side AB is congruent to side PQ
Ray MN is the angle bisector of angle M
Point E is the midpoint of segment TU
How Do I Include My Math Steps?
Some math symbols/equations are difficult
to type in a document.
You may do this instead:
1. Write your geometry/alge
a steps on paper.
2. Scan or take pictures of your work.
3. Insert your pictures into the Word document below your
typed explanation.
How to Graph (Option 1)
Download the provided grid file
Open it in any drawing tool
MS Paint
Paint.NET
PicMonkey http:
www.picmonkey.com
Draw your complete diagram
Make sure your points are labeled
Save the grid and insert it into your Word
Document
http:
www.picmonkey.com
How to Graph (Option 2)
Download the provided grid file
Print it on pape
Draw your complete diagram by hand
Make sure your points are labeled
Scan your diagram as an image and
insert it into your Word Document
What if I don’t have Microsoft Word?
You need to submit a Microsoft Word document so that
your solutions can be scanned by the system.
If you’re using a Mac, then do this:
1. Type your paragraph solutions in Apple Pages.
2. Insert any alge
a steps, diagrams, etc.
3. Save your document.
4. Export or “save as” as Microsoft Word format.
5. Submit the Word document as an attachment.
If you’re using OpenOffice, then do this:
1. Type your paragraph solutions in OpenOffice
2. Complete steps 2 through 5 above.

Coordinate Geometry
Big Idea: Coordinate Geometry
You can use coordinates of the center of a
circle and its radius to write an equation fo
that circle
YOUR TASK
A gardener wants the three rosebushes in
her garden to be watered by a rotating
water sprinkle
To help her, you draw a diagram of the
garden using a grid in which each unit
epresents 1 foot
Big Idea: Coordinate Geometry
The rosebushes are at points (1, 3), (5, 11),
and (11, 4)
She wants to position the sprinkler at a point
equidistant from each rosebush.
**Remember you can use the Midpoint Formula, the slope formula, and the
elationship between perpendicular lines to find points of concu
ency
Where would you recommend placing the
sprinkler? Be sure you verify your answer.
What equation describes the boundary of the
circular region that the sprinkler will
cover?
Big Idea: Coordinate Geometry
Using detailed steps, describe your solution
to the problems
Your steps should be clear enough so that
any geometry student can complete them
Draw one or more diagrams to help
illustrate your solution
Using Geometry Language
Use appropriate geometry terms suchas:
Circle
Radius
Cente
Equidistant
Bisecto
Segment
Distance formula
Intersection
Etc…
