This Blog exists for the collective benefit of all 7th grade math students. While the posts are specific to Mr. Chamberlain's class, we welcome comments from everyone. The more specific your question (including your own attempts to answer it) the better.

For #15, you should be able to do part a... that's just finding the hypotenuse given two legs of a right triangle.
For part b you can estimate. There are many possible solutions for the length and width of the screen (aka the length of the two legs).
For #21, I'm gonna let you struggle with that one (it's fun to be nasty). Hint: can you superimpose a right triangle on top of the map that can help you find the distance from point A to point B?
If your only troubles are 15b and 21, you're doing just fine. You can ask (or re-ask) any lingering questions from hw #3-1, too)

ReplyDeleteayaaz

ReplyDeletearm
Yup, "arm" is onto something... and believe it or not, you're in search of a leg!!
ReplyDeleteWe'll go over #21 tomorrow in class...
I got number 21 cause I found 2 triangles.
ReplyDeleteI keep trying numbers and they don't seem to work for 15(b).

I have figured it out with just a bit of thinking!
