2. Draw a 15° angle.
DiscussionYesterday we estimated the measure of different angles. Today we will find the exact measurements using a protractor. As we have seen before sometimes an estimate is good enough. But sometimes we need an exact answer. For example, a carpenter needs to know an exact measurement…
Has anyone ever seen wood going around the top of a dining room? What is it called? Crown moldingIn order to install this crown molding, you must cut pieces of wood at certain angles to make the corner pieces fit. If you do not cut them at the precise angle, the two pieces of wood won’t fit. To do this, you use a special tool. It is called a miter saw.
Today, we will be trying to find precise angles. We will use a special tool. It is called a protractor.
SWBAT measure an angle using a protractorSWBAT draw a specific angle given a protractor
Example 1: Draw an acute angle and label it BAC. Estimate the angle measure. Remember the drawing from yesterday. Then use a protractor to measure the angle. Compare.
Notice that the protractor has two sets of numbers. How do we know which number to use? Depending on if the angle is acute or obtuseHow do you know that the angle is 70° not 110°? Because the angle is acute, and acute angles are < 90°
Example 2: Draw an obtuse angle and label it BAC. Estimate the angle measure. Remember the drawing from yesterday. Then use a protractor to measure the angle. Compare.
How do you know that the angle is 120° not 60°? Because the angle is obtuse, and obtuse angles are > 90°

Section 6-1: Angles (Day 2)
Example 3: Draw a 50° angle using estimation. Now get the exact measure using a protractor. Then construct one with the protractor. Start with a horizontal ray. Then place the protractor above the ray. Then put a mark above the 50° mark on the outside of the protractor. Finally, connect the starting point of the ray with the mark you just made. Notice that the protractor has two set of numbers. How do we know which number to use? How do you know that the angle is 50° not 130°? Because the angle is acute, and acute angles are < 90°
Example 4: Draw a 160° angle using estimation. Now get the exact measure using a protractor. Then construct one with the protractor. Start with a horizontal ray. Then place the protractor above the ray. Then put a mark above the 160° mark on the outside of the protractor. Finally, connect the starting point of the ray with the mark you just made. Notice that the protractor has two set of numbers. How do we know which number to use? Depending on whether the angle is acute or obtuseHow do you know that the angle is 160° not 20°? Because the angle is obtuse, and obtuse angles are > 90°

Bomb, Hard, Cool, Great Notice that there are many ways to say the same thing. The same is true in math.In algebra, we say that two things are equal. In geometry, we say that two things are congruent.
SWBAT locate congruent angles using the definition of vertical, corresponding, and alternate interior angles
DefinitionsCongruent – equal to; (in algebra we use = ; in geometry we use )
Parallel – two lines that do not intersect each otherThe following diagram is called two parallel lines cut by a transversal. We say that line L is parallel to line P. This is written as L | | P.
CONGRUENT ANGLES:vertical angles - form an X (1 and 4; 2 and 3; 5 and 8; 6 and 7)corresponding angles - form an F (1 and 5; 3 and 7; 2 and 6; 4 and 8)alternate interior angles - form a Z (3 and 6; 4 and 5)

Review QuestionWhat is the difference between a regular and irregular polygon? Regular – all sides/angles congruent
DiscussionToday we will be using a new formula. This formula is going to allow us to calculate the sum of the interior angles of any polygon. I would like for us to come up with the formula together. So here we go:
1 x 180° = 180° 2 x 180° = 360° 3 x 180° = 540°
Notice the relationship between the number of sides and the number of triangles that you can draw inside each polygon. To find the sum of the interior angles of a polygon, subtract two from the number of sides then multiply by 180. The formula is written as follows: (n – 2) x 180°
SWBAT derive the formula for the sum of the interior angles of a polygonSWBAT apply the formula to calculate the sum of the interior angles of any polygonSWBAT calculate each angle of a regular polygon by applying the formula
Example 1: Draw a regular octagon. What do the interior angles add up to?(n – 2) x 180°(8 – 2) x 180°6 x 180° = 1080° What would each angle have to be? 1080°/8 = 135°
Example 2: Draw a 10 sided polygon. What do the interior angles add up to?(n – 2) x 180°(10 – 2) x 180°8 x 180° = 1440° What would each angle have to be? 1440°/10 = 144°
Example 3: What regular polygon has angles that are 108° each?Use guess and check to arrive at the answer.8 sides = 1080°/8 = 135°10 sides = 1440°/10 = 144° (answer is getting bigger; we need to guess smaller)5 sides = 540°/5 = 108°

Review QuestionHow do you find the sum of the interior angles of a polygon? (n -2)/180
DiscussionYesterday, we talked about interior angles. What are interior angles? Angles on the inside.Today, we are going to talk about exterior angles. What are exterior angles? Angles on the outside.
In any polygon, the sum of the exterior angles is always 360°. You can visualize putting all five of these exterior angles together. They would form a circle (360°). This is the case for any polygon. Let’s make sure: Draw a square with its four exterior angles. Notice each interior and exterior angle would be 90°. They would total 360°.
Let’s do the same thing for a triangle with equal angles. Notice that each interior angle is 60°. This would make each of the three exterior angles equal to 120°. Therefore, they total to 360° as well.
SWBAT find the measure of an exterior angle
Example 1: Find ‘x’.
x + 60 + 80 + 100 = 360x + 240 = 360

Triangle – 3 sided polygon whose angles add up to 180°
SWBAT draw a triangle given its nameSWBAT name a triangle by its angles and sides
Discussion Some famous people are known by one name. For example, how many of you know who Lebron is?Can you name some other famous people who are known by one name?Beyonce, Obama, Eminem, Tiger
How many of you know who John in Junior High is?What else do you need to know? Last nameLet’s say we are talking about John Grabowski. What does his first name tell you? Gender/individualWhat does his last name tell you? His family/nationality
Triangles go by two names as well: a first name and last name.Triangles’ first names describe their angles.Triangles’ last names describe their sides.
Types of triangles – by angles
1. Acute – 3 acute angles
2. Obtuse – 1 obtuse angle
3. Right – 1 right angle

Review QuestionWhat do the interior angles of a triangle add up to? 180°
DiscussionYesterday we talk about the interior angles of triangles. Today we are going to talk about how the interior angles are related to the exterior angles.
A + B = 1
Let’s try to figure out why? We can put some numbers in for the angles and see what happens.
Notice that the exterior angle has to be 150° based on it being a straight line. Notice that this is equal to the sum of the other two interior angles. This is true for any exterior angle. Any exterior angle is equal to the sum of the opposite two interior angles.
Let’s draw in the other two exterior angles so we can see how they are equal to the sum of the other two interior angles.
SWBAT find missing interior and exterior angles of a triangle
Example 1: Find the missing angle.
The ‘?’ is 130° because of our new rule. The exterior angle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles of a triangle.
You can also do it the old school way (using knowledge from 6-1 and 6-2). You can find the ‘?’ by finding the missing angle in the triangle (50°). Then use your knowledge of straight lines and subtract that 50° from 180° to get 130°.

Example 2: Find the missing angle.
The ‘?’ is 70° because of our new rule. The exterior angle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles of a triangle.
You can also do it the old school way (using knowledge from 6-1 and 6-2). You can find the ‘?’ by finding the other missing angle in the triangle (30°) because of our knowledge of straight lines. Then calculate the ‘?’ by using the fact that the interior angles of a triangle add up to 180°.
Example 3: Find all of the angles in the triangle.
We know that 2x + x = 150° because of our new rule. So let’s solve that equation.2x + x = 1503x = 150x = 50
Therefore, the angles in the triangle are 50°, 100°, and 30°.

Review QuestionWhat does congruent mean? SameWhat do congruent figures have in common? Angles, Sides
DiscussionYesterday, we talked about congruent figures. We said they were like identical twins. Today, we are going to talk about similar figures. Similar figures are like brothers. Can someone give me an example of a big brother and little brother in our school that look the same except one is bigger? (Think Dr. Evil and Mini Me from Austin Powers.)
Draw two right triangles that would be comparable to a big brother and little brother.
How do you think their angles are related? SameHow do you think their sides are related? ProportionalWhat does proportional mean? Two things are related by the same ratio. (twice as big, ¼ as small)
What is the missing side?
Why can’t we just increase the 6 (height) by 4 to get the answer to the other height? That’s not proportional
How do you solve a proportion? Cross multiply, then divide

Review QuestionWhat does congruent mean? SameWhat do congruent figures have in common? Angles, SidesWhat does similar mean? AlikeWhat do similar figures have in common? Angles, Proportional Sides
DiscussionWe know that if three angles in one triangle are congruent to three angles of another triangle then the triangles are similar. What if only two of the angles are congruent to each other? They would be similar as well because if two of the angles are the same then the 3rd would be the same as well.
For example: Triangle 1: 90°, 60°, ? Triangle 2: 90°, 60°, ? What is the 3rd angle of each triangle? 30°
This is called the Angle-Angle (AA) Similarity. It states that if two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar.
SWBAT solve application problems using similar triangles
Example 1: A six foot man casts a 10 foot shadow. A building casts a 120 shadow. Find the height of the building.
Demonstrate the problem by acting it out. Assume the clock in the room is the sun. Then have one student be the man and another taller student the building. Finally, draw a picture of the problem on the board, labeling all of the known parts. Notice that two angles in one triangle are congruent to two angles in the other triangle. Therefore, the triangles are similar.

DiscussionThere are right angles all around us. Today’s lesson is based solely on right triangles. When you build a wall it has to form a right angle in order to be sturdy. Look at where the walls in the classroom meet the floor and ceiling. They are all right angles. How can we ensure that they are right angles?
We can start to build the floor so it is 3 feet long. Then we can start to build the wall so it is 4 foot tall. Then we can check the diagonal distance between the top of the wall and the edge of the floor. If the distance is greater than 5 feet, then we have an obtuse angle. If the distance is less than 5 feet, then we have an acute angle. All you have to do is adjust the sides until the diagonal distance is exactly 5 feet. This concept is also used to set up and line football fields.

10 → 10020 → 40030 → 900
676 is “between 20 and 30.” Also, it is closer to 900 so the answer has to be closer to 30. Finally, it has to be 26 because 26 times 26 ends in a 6.

Review QuestionIn a right triangle there are legs and a hypotenuse.How do we know what sides are the legs? Shorter sidesHow do we know which side is the hypotenuse? Across from the right angle
DiscussionIf you had a triangle with sides 1, 2, and 3 feet respectively, would it form a right triangle? The students will say it is. Suckers!!! No, 12 + 22 ≠ 32
SWBAT determine if three sides of a triangle would form a right triangle using the Pythagorean Theorem
Example 1: Is it a right triangle? Why or Why not?
62 + 102 = 122
36 + 100 = 1442
136 ≠ 144These three sides do not form a right triangle.
You can construct a triangle using rulers with these dimensions on the floor to prove that they do not form a right triangle.
Example 2: Three sides of a triangle are 12, 20, and 16. Do they form a right triangle?How do you know where to put each of the values? a, b are the legs, c is the hypotenuse122 + 162 = 202 144 + 256 = 4002
400 = 400These three sides form a right triangle.
If the hypotenuse was 21, what would that tell us about the angle? It is greater than 90°. This could help us if we were building a wall to see if it was “square.” If our wall was off a few degrees, would that matter? How would that mistake be magnified on a 50 story building? Greatly.

Review QuestionHow can you prove if a triangle is a right triangle? Put the 3 sides of the triangle into the Pythagorean Theorem and see if it “works”
DiscussionA Pythagorean triple is a group of three integers that satisfy the equation: a2 + b2 = c2. For example, 3, 4, 5 is a Pythagorean triple because 32 + 42 = 52. Notice that if we multiply each of the triples by an integer a new triple is formed. We know that 3, 4, 5 “works.”
6, 8, 10 (times 2) 62 + 82 = 102
9, 12, 15 (times 3) 92 + 122 = 152
Other “famous” Pythagorean triples: (5, 12, 13) (8, 15, 17) (7, 24, 25). We can multiply any of these by an integer to create a new triple.
SWBAT use Pythagorean triples to solve right triangles mentallySWBAT apply the Pythagorean Theorem to word problems Example 1: In a Walmart catalog, an HD TV is listed as being 50 inches. This distance is the diagonal distance across the screen. If the screen measures 30 inches in height, what is the actual width of the screen?
a2 + 302 = 502
a2 + 900 = 2500 - 900 - 900a2 = 1600a = 40 in Notice that the answer of 30, 40, 50 is the Pythagorean Triple 3, 4, 5 just multiplied by 10.
Example 2: Plot the points (0, 5) and (12, 0) on the coordinate plane. What is the diagonal distance between these two points?
52 + 122 = c2
25 + 144 = c2
169 = c2
13 = c Notice that we can find the distance between two points on the coordinate plane using the Pythagorean Theorem.

Review QuestionHow can you prove if a triangle is a right triangle? Put the 3 sides of the triangle into the Pythagorean Theorem and see if it “works”
DiscussionLet’s see if we can put all of this together. We are going to do an activity over the next couple of days that will use the Pythagorean Theorem plus other Algebra skills that we learned in Unit 4. SWBAT plot points on the coordinate planeSWBAT calculate the slope between two pointsSWBAT apply the Pythagorean Theorem to word problems
Activity1. You will design an amusement park. You have to include specific attractions and necessities in your design. First off, it has to be done on a large sheet of graph paper. Next identify the center of your paper, and draw in the x and y axes. The following items must be included in the design: help center, water ride, three different roller coasters, kiddy land, merry-go-round, concessions, gift shop, restrooms, and security desk. Next mark an entrance point of each attraction on the graph paper and draw in the remaining part of the attraction around it. Try to spread the attractions out as much as possible.
2. After planning out the layout and design of each attraction, you must identify its location by using ordered pairs. Use your “entrance points” as the attractions identifiable location.
3. After identifying each attraction’s location with ordered pairs, you will calculate the slope between attractions. To do this mark the direct path to/from the following locations: gift shop to restrooms, security desk to roller coaster #2, kiddie land to merry-go-round, help center to gift shop, restroom to roller coaster #3, concessions to water ride, roller coaster #1 to roller coaster #2, and roller coaster #2 to roller coaster #3. Then use the slope formula: (y – y)/(x – x).
4. Now you are going to determine how large a space you will need to design the park. Using the Pythagorean Theorem, you will calculate how far away certain attractions are from one another. This will provide you with the information needed to expand the park from a scaled blueprint to actual dimensions. Calculate the distance by making right triangles using the selected attraction points from step 3 and the Pythagorean Theorem.

Review Question Why are they called 3-D shapes? They have three dimensions: B, H, WWhat does volume mean? Stuff inside a 3D shape
DiscussionHas anyone seen the movie/cartoon Transformers? Or for you literature people, has anyone noticed a character in a novel going through a transformation?What does the word transform/transformation mean? ChangeIn this section, we are going to talk about three different types of changes to polygons.
SWBAT slide a polygon left/right or up/down on the coordinate plane
DefinitionTransformation – change/movement of a polygon
Three Types of Transformations:
1. Translation – slide left/right or up/down
2. Reflection – flipping over the x or y axis
3. Dilation – enlarge or reduce
Example 1: Plot the following three points: (1, 5) (3, 1) (6, 3). Connect the points to make a triangle. Translation - three units right
What is going to change? x values because we are moving left and rightHow is moving right going to change the x values? It will add three to each x value.What are the new coordinates? (4, 5) (6, 1) (9, 3)Graph the new triangle.
How are the two triangles related? Congruent. Notice the segments and angles are still the same. If they are not the same shape and size then you did something wrong.What would change if we translate a polygon up or down? y values How would the y’s change? They would increase if we move it up and decrease if we move it down.
347
Example 2: Plot the following three points: (1, 2) (5, 2) (1, 5). Connect the points to make a triangle Translation – two units left and four units down
What is going to change? The x values and the y values.What are the new coordinates? (-1, -2) (3, -2) (-1, 1)Graph the new triangle.
How are the two triangles related? Congruent. Notice the segments and angles are still the same. If they are not the same shape and size then you did something wrong.

Review Question What does moving a polygon left/right do to its coordinates? Changes the x’sWhat does moving a polygon up/down do to its coordinates? Changes the y’s
DiscussionWhen you look in the mirror how is your reflection related to you? It is flipped/reversed.What does the word reflection mean? Appearance is flippedReflection – flipping an object over the x or y-axis
What is happening to the coordinates when you flip over the y-axis?
* the y’s stay the same, the x’s are the opposite
What is happening to the coordinates when you flip over the x-axis?
* the x’s stay the same, the y’s are the opposite
SWBAT flip a polygon over the x or y-axis on the coordinate plane
DefinitionsReflection – flipping an object over the x or y axisOver y-axis – same y’s, opposite x’sOver x-axis – same x’s, opposite y’s
Example 1: Plot the following three points: (-6, 5) (-6, 2) (-2, 2). Connect the points to make a triangle. Reflection - over the y-axis

Unit 6 Hand-In This problem set is intended to challenge the students and encourage students to apply a deep
understanding of problem–solving skills.
1. Two angles are complementary. One angle is 5 more than four times the other. Find the measure of both angles.
2. Two angles are supplementary. One angle is 20 less than three times the other. Find the measure of both angles.
3. Show that 3, 4, and 5 are a Pythagorean triple. Then show that 300, 400, and 500 are a Pythagorean triple. Then explain why this works.
4. Draw two right triangles that are similar to each. Make sure to include the measures of each side of each triangle. (The sides should be proportional. The sides should also work in the Pythagorean Theorem)
5. Draw two acute scalene triangles that are congruent to each other. Make sure to include the sides and angles of each triangle.
6. What is the radius of a cone whose height is 4 meters and whose volume is ?
7. What is the height of a cylinder whose radius is 2 meters and whose volume is ?
8. What is the radius of a sphere whose volume is ?
9. A cube has a volume of 27 cm3. If the length of a side must be a whole number, what is the volume of the next larger cube?
10. Draw a right triangle in the first quadrant. List its coordinates. Then translate it 3 units left and 4 units up. From there reflect it over the x-axis. List its final coordinates.

Pythagorean Theorem Project
In this unit, we discussed the Pythagorean Theorem. This theorem allows us to check to see if a triangle is a right triangle. We also discussed how this can be used in real life situations. For example, we discussed how to make sure that a wall is “square” by using the Pythagorean triple 3, 4, 5.
Assume that you have a large piece of land that has no markings on it. You are given the challenge of creating a football field on this piece of land. Write a paragraph describing how the Pythagorean Theorem can be used to line a football field.
Find another real life situation where the Pythagorean Theorem can be used. Write a paragraph explaining how the Pythagorean Theorem would be used in this situation.
