Tell me if... • This square is considered a unit. • What is the length of its side? • What is its perimeter? • What is its area? • If the dimensions of this square are halved or doubled, how do the perimeter and the area change?
Let’s complete the table... 4 1 1 8 4 2
Let’s complete the table... 4 1 1 8 4 2 16 16 4
We can say that... • If the length of the side of a square is halved, its perimeter decreases by a factor of ___ and its area decreases by a factor of ___. • If the length of the side of a square is doubled, its perimeter increases by a factor of ___ and its area increases by a factor of ___.
About solids... Consider this cube. • What is the length of the side? • What is its surface area? • What is its volume? If the dimensions of this cube are halved or doubled, how do the surface area and the volume change?
Let’s complete the table... 1 1 6 4 96 64
We can say that... • If the length of the side of a cube is halved, its surface area decreases by a factor of ___, and its volume decreases by a factor of ___. • If the length of the side of a cube is doubled, its surface area increases by a factor of ___, and its volume increases by a factor of ___.
Let’s explore • What changes in perimeter, area, surface area, and volume would take place if we use other factors to alter the dimensions of a geometric figure or a solid (triplicate, ten-fold, etc.)? • Do other solids and figures respond to changes in dimensions in the same way as the square and the cube?
