Presentation Transcript

  1. Gazebo Needed for a Local Park GSP Activity

  2. Overview • Summative (end of unit) activity • Covering all 5 strands – over 20 expectations • Using technology to explore patterns • Grade 7 – Old TIP Binder (p. 113)Go to Gazebo Summative Activity

  3. Introduction • Your class is going to build a Gazebo for the local park • What is a Gazebo? Can you draw one? • The base will be a regular polygon • What is the base on the diagram? • What is a regular polygon? • How do you determine the sum of angles in a regular polygon? • The main floor support beam will be 4 metres • What is the main floor support beam? • For 4, 6, and 8 sided figure?

  4. The Problem • Trim for the base of the Gazebo is on sale now for $15 a metre ($30 regular price) • Your goal is to investigate the various shapes for your Gazebo base and determine the cost of the trim

  5. A Gazebo

  6. Another Gazebo

  7. One More Gazebo

  8. Shape of the Base • Main support is 4 metres • Looking at relationship between perimeter and main support (diagonal)

  9. And now the fun begins
