Determine how changes in dimensions affect the perimeter and area of common geometric figures.


Remarks


Example:  If the lengths of each side of a trapezoid are tripled, determine the change in its area, and justify your answer.

Grade: 912
Body of Knowledge: Geometry
Standard: Polygons - Identify and describe polygons (triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, etc.), using terms such as regular, convex, and concave. Find measures of angles, sides, perimeters, and areas of polygons, justifying the methods used. Apply transformations to polygons. Relate geometry to algebra by using coordinate geometry to determine transformations. Use algebraic reasoning to determine congruence, similarity, and symmetry. Create and verify tessellations of the plane using polygons.

Lesson Plan

Name Description
How does scale factor affect the areas and perimeters of similar figures?

In this lesson plan, students will observe and record the linear dimensions of similar figures, and then discover how the values of area and perimeter are related to the ratio of the linear dimensions of the figures.
