Area of a Rectangle

In this worksheet you will investigate the area of a rectangle.

Investigation: 1) Move the sliders Base and Height and describe what happens to the image. 2) What relationship does the number of squares have with the area of the rectangle? 3) Is there a way to find the number of square with out counting them? 4) What conjecture can you make about the formula for area of a rectangle?

Surface Area: Introductory Exercises

Take a few minutes to interact with the rectangular prism shown here. After doing so, create one that has a length = 4 units, width = 5 units, and height = 3 units.

How many square units (i.e. "squares") appear on 1 pink face? How many square units (i.e. "squares") appear on 1 gold face? How many square units (i.e. "squares") appear on 1 white face?

Use your answers for (1) to determine the TOTAL SURFACE AREA of this rectangular prism. That is, how many square units, or squares, cover the ENTIRE SURFACE of this rectangular prism?

Now create a rectangular prism that has a length = 8 units, width = 3 units, and height = 5 units.

How many square units (i.e. "squares") appear on 1 pink face? How many square units (i.e. "squares") appear on 1 gold face? How many square units (i.e. "squares") appear on 1 white face?

Use your answers for (3) to determine the TOTAL SURFACE AREA of this rectangular prism. That is, how many square units, or squares, cover the ENTIRE SURFACE of this rectangular prism?

Overall, how we can determine the total surface area (number of squares) that cover the entire surface of a rectangular prism? Describe.

Cube Cross Sections

Move the points I, K, and J around on the edges of the cube.

1) What are the different cross section shapes that you can make? 2) What is the cross section with the least number of sides? 3) What is the cross section with the most number of sides? 4) Can you make any regular polygonal cross sections? How would you position the points for each?

Volume: Intuitive Introduction

STUDENTS:

Interact with the applet below for a few minutes. Then answer the questions that follow. To explore this resource in Augmented Reality, see the directions beneath the questions listed below.

1.

In the applet above, create a rectangular prism that has its first layer measuring 3 units long by 4 units wide. Suppose this rectangular prism is 2 layers high. How many cubes make up this prism?

2.

In the applet above, create a rectangular prism that has its first layer measuring 5 units long by 3 units wide. How many cubes make up this prism if this prism is 2 layers high? 3 layers high? 10 layers high?

3.

How can we EASILY determine the number of cubes that fit inside ANY rectangular prism? Describe.

TO EXPLORE IN AUGMENTED REALITY:

1) Open up GeoGebra 3D app on your device. 2) Go to the MENU (horizontal bars) in the upper left corner. Select OPEN. In the Search GeoGebra Resources input box, type dp6ghmvv (Note this is the resource ID = last 8 digits of the URL for this resource.) 3) In the resource that uploads, zoom out and/or adjust the LENGTH, WIDTH, & HEIGHT sliders to create a prism with dimensions you like. Press the AR button in the lower right corner of your 3D screen. Follow the directions that appear.

Vertical Angles Theorem

Definition: Vertical Angles are angles whose sides form 2 pairs of opposite rays. When 2 lines intersect, 2 pairs of vertical angles are formed. One pair of vertical angles is shown below. (Click the other checkbox on the right to display the other pair of vertical angles.) Interact with the following applet for a few minutes, then answer the questions that follow.

Directions & Questions: 1) Complete the following statement (based upon your observations). Vertical angles are always __________________________. 2) Suppose the pink angle above measures 140 degrees. What would the measure of its vertical angle? What would be the measure of the other 2 (gray) angles?
