Video Game Design Project
Video Game Design 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 use different transformations to escape the pyramid and earn prizes. 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. Translations are when the shape moves from the original shape on a graph. Dilations are when a shape changes size. Rotations are when a shape turns on the graph. Reflection is when the shape flips across the graph. My game used each of these transformations to get past each level.
Stained Glass Project
Stained Glass Project
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 Christianity. We wanted to use as many shapes as possible. The shapes I included in my design were squares, triangles, parallelograms, a rhombus, and a circle. I made sure that my parallelograms abided by the properties of parallelograms which are opposite sides are parallel, opposite sides are congruent, opposite angles are congruent, consecutive angles are supplementary, and diagonals bisect each other.
Cookie Activity
Cookie Activity
The assignment was to measure a cookie and find the circumference, diameter, and area. I then used these measurements to arc lengths and the sector areas. I learned that The four arc lengths should add to the circumference because the arc formula is formula formula for circumference multiplied by the angle. The four sectors should add to the area because the sector formula is just the area formula multiplied by the angle.
Gun Law Project
Gun Law Project
We were asked to research a current event/social justice topic of interest and create a google form survey that produces results that can be formatted into a two-way table. We used our data from the survey to determine our peers' opinions on whether citizens should need a license to carry a gun.
Water Bottle Project
Water Bottle Project
Our assignment was to design a water bottle for the FDA. It had to hold 16.9 ounces of water, and contain three 3D shapes, and determine the dimensions of each shape. This is my final sketch of the water bottle that I created.
