An interactive applet and associated web page showing how to find the area and perimeter of a square from the coordinates of its vertices. The square can be either parallel to the axes or rotated. The grid and coordinates can be turned on and off. The area and perimeter calculation can be turned off to permit class exercises and then turned back on the verify the answers. The applet can be printed as it appears on the screen to make handouts. The web page has a full description of the method for determining area and perimeter, a worked example and has links to other pages relating to coordinate geometry. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

Through this lesson and its two associated activities, students are introduced to the use of geometry in engineering design, and conclude by making scale models of objects of their choice. The practice of developing scale models is often used in engineering design to analyze the effectiveness of proposed design solutions. In this lesson, students complete fencing (square) and fire pit (circle) word problems on two worksheets—which involves side and radius dimensions, perimeters, circumferences and areas—guiding them to discover the relationships between the side length of a square and its area, and the radius of a circle and its area. They also think of real-world engineering applications of the geometry concepts.

In this 20-day module students explore area as an attribute of two-dimensional figures and relate it to their prior understandings of multiplication. Students conceptualize area as the amount of two-dimensional surface that is contained within a plane figure.  They come to understand that the space can be tiled with unit squares without gaps or overlaps.  They make predictions and explore which rectangles cover the most area when the side lengths differ.  Students progress from using square tile manipulatives to drawing their own area models and manipulate rectangular arrays to concretely demonstrate the arithmetic properties. The module culminates with students designing a simple floor plan that conforms to given area specifications.

En este módulo de 20 días, los estudiantes exploran el área como un atributo de figuras bidimensionales y lo relacionan con su comprensión previa de multiplicación. Los estudiantes conceptualizan el área como la cantidad de superficie bidimensional que está contenida dentro de una figura plana. Llegan a comprender que el espacio puede estar mortal con cuadrados unitarios sin huecos o superposiciones. Hacen predicciones y exploran qué rectángulos cubren la mayor cantidad de área cuando las longitudes laterales difieren. Los estudiantes progresan del uso de manipulaciones de baldosas cuadradas hasta dibujar sus propios modelos de área y manipular matrices rectangulares para demostrar concretamente las propiedades aritméticas. El módulo culmina con estudiantes que diseñan un plano de planta simple que se ajusta a las especificaciones de área dadas.
