Geometry

videogame project

In geometry I applied transformations by designing a video game with 3 levels. After designing my video game, I turned the video game into an animation. The goal of my game was to get the oxygen tank from one part of the map to the destination (India). In order to complete my game, translations, rotations, reflections, and dilations had to be used. It was important throughout the process that we remembered the differences for each transformation.


Stained glass project

In Geometry, I learned about the properties of parallelograms and used the properties to design a piece of stained glass. The inspiration for my stained glass was to take the basic properties of geometry and make our project as simple as possible. My partner and I didn't want our project to include the basic shapes of geometry and make it into something that hurt people's eyes, but wasn't too simple. The shapes I included in my design were squares, triangles, rectangles, rhombi, a trapezoid, and a circle. I made sure that my parallelograms abided by the properties of parallelograms which are that opposite sides are congruent, opposite sides are parallel, opposite angles are congruent, consecutive angles are supplementary, and that diagonals bisect each other.

Cookie activity

The activity that we did involving a cookie was that we were given a cookie and a knife and told to cut the cookie two chords to make vertex inside angles. Once we cut the Cookie, we measured the angles and completed the assignment. arc lengths are On the circle angle = ½(arc) arc=2(angle)
