Math

Our perimeter assignment was a bit of a challenge for many students. Remember all figures have a perimeter of 40 cm. The string is just to help you get the basic shape. Then you have to use some logical reasoning. The rectangle questions should be easy. When making figures that are larger than four side, it is easier to make vertical and horizontal sides on the grid paper.

Use the questions in your yellow math notebook and the blog to study for the perimeter test on Wednesday. Correct your homework from Nelson Math. There is one more type of question that I will ask:

A rectangle has a length of 6 cm and a width of 4 cm. What happens to the perimeter if you increase the length by 3 cm? Show your work by calculating the perimeters of the original and new rectangles.
