Answer the following questions on YOUR blog as a post. Use the same title as mine for your post. Write your answers in complete sentences! An easy way to do this is to copy and paste the questions below onto your post and then put your answers in a different color!1) What has to be the same in order for two parallelograms to be similar?2) Describe a way to find a missing side length in a pair of similar figures.3) I have a small isosceles triangle with a base of 3 inches and other sides are 4 inches.I want to create a similar isosceles triangle with a base of 7.5 inches.What should the other side lengths be and why?


Investigation 4 Math Reflections

1) For two parallelograms to be similar are that the angles have to the same and the ratio have to the same.
2)the wat you find a missing side length of a similar figure is that first you have to find the sf or the ratio and you times your sf and the ratio by the similar side length.
3) well the first thing you should do is that you have to find the scale factor from the lil triangle to the big triangle and then you answer you multiply your anwer to the sdie length and you will find ur answer.and the side of the triangle is 10

For this 10 point assignment - answer the following questions in COMPLETE sentences and use examples to help support your answer. You could copy and paste these questions onto your blog if you need to and then type your answers in different colors. Write me a comment on this assignment when you finish! :)1) Think back to Mug Wump - how did you decide which characters were similar to him? How did you decided which characters were NOT similar to him?
I know that that (x, y) axis to be the same for an example like (5, 6)


i know they are


3) If I used (x, y) to create Mug and I used (4x, 4y) to create a new character, Pug, how would Pug be similar to Mug? What is the scale factor from Mug to Pug? How many Mugs would fit into one Pug (area)?

Let's say that my original paper is 8 inches by 10 inches. I type in 50% to the copier to reduce the paper. Using the math reflection rubric I handed out this year, answer the following questions on your blog (1 bonus point for answering in paragraph form instead of question/answer form):1) Compare the oringinal paper's side lengths to the new paper's side lengths.2) Compare the angles of the original to the new paper.3) Compare the area of the new paper to the area of the original

The original side lenth are 8in and 10in. The reduced side lenth are .5 times smaller then the original and that new side lenth are 4in and 5in.the original area is 80 in and the reduced area is only 20in and the area is 4 times larger then the original.

7th grade questions

Second assignment - There is a method to my madness! :) Write about why you think I am having you blog in math class - How will it help you? Will it help you? What is the point??? (a 7th grader's favorite question...)


I think you are having as write a blog because it is easier to grade and it is funner that doing paper all the time
1)doing bl0gs will help me because I cant lose papers and i can go on it at home
2)yes it will help me cause it will make me more oraginzed and it will be cool to talk to my friends and leave them comments. :D
3)i think the point of this is to save paper and to help that earth and make it easier for you to grade
