Geometry Scrapbook
During the next week you will create a geometry scrapbook. The
scrapbook will contain specific items as described below. The items will
be pictures cut from magazines, newspapers, advertisements, commercial
packaging, or (for less credit) freehand sketches. Items should be taped or
glued neatly, and labeled as requested. Your scrapbook should be stapled
together or placed in a report binder.
Cover: Your name, a title, and a geometric design that you
construct.
Page 1: A Triangle Measure and record the length of all 3
sides and the degree measure of each angle of the
triangle.
A Rectangle Measure and record the length of all 4
sides and the length of a diagonal of the rectangle.
9 points
Page 2: Parallel Lines Find parallel lines that demonstrate
function versus design. For example, railroad tracks
must be parallel. Explain the function of the parallel
lines in your photo.
4 points
Page 3: Congruent Shapes Find congruent shapes that are
not triangular. For example, a pair of socks. Explain
what would happen if the shapes were similar instead
of congruent.
4 points
Page 4: Symmetric Logos Find 3 different logos which
contain rotational or line symmetry. Describe the
symmetry of each.
15 points
10 points
Page 5: Solids Find and label a sphere, cylinder, pyramid,
cone, and prism.
15 points
Page 6: Geometric Sample Find a photo of something that
you think relates to geometry. Explain what you
think the connection is to geometry.
