Geometry Module 3 Lesson 7 General Pyramids and Cones and Their Cross-Sections GEOMETRY MODULE 3 LESSON 7 GENERAL PYRAMIDS AND CONES AND THEIR CROSS-SECTIONS OPENING EXERCISE Complete the opening exercise on page 49 in your workbook. General Cylinders: 1 and 6 Prisms: 2 and 7 Figures that come to a point with a polygonal base: 4 and 5 Figures that come to a point with a curved base: 3 and 8 DISCUSSION Rectangular Pyramid: Given a rectangular region B in a plane E and a point V not in E, the rectangular pyramid with base B and vertex V is the collection of all segments VP for any point P in B. Image 4 from the Opening Exercise is an example of a rectangular pyramid. MOD3 L7 1 General Cone: Let B be a region in a plane E and V be a point not in E. The cone with base B and vertex V is the union of all 푉푃̅̅̅̅ for all point P in B. Images 2, 4, 5, and 8 from the Opening Exercise are examples of general cones. The definition for rectangular pyramid and general cone are essentially the same. What is the only difference? The only difference is that a rectangular pyramid has a rectangular base. A general cone can have any region for a base. Important Notes about Pyramids and Cones A general cone is named by its base. o A general cone with a disk as a base is called a circular cone. o A general cone with a polygonal base is called a pyramid. Examples of this include a rectangular pyramid or a triangular pyramid. A general cone whose vertex lies on the perpendicular line to the base and that pass through the center of the base is a right cone (or a right pyramid if the base is polygonal). Video: How to Create a Cone from a Right Triangle https://youtu.be/Tz7TQljoiM8 Consider the pyramid to the right. Name all the lateral faces. AVB, BVC, CVD, DVA Name all the lateral edges. VA, VB, VC, VD Name the base. ABCD MOD3 L7 2 3D DILATIONS We studied dilations in two dimensions, but it turns out that dilations behave similarly in three-dimensional space. A dilation of three-dimensional space with center O and scale factor r is defined the same way it is in two-dimensions. The dilation maps O to itself and maps any other point X to the point 푋’ on ray OX so that 푶푿′ = 풓푶푿 Note: Each cross-section of a general cone is similar to its base. The angles are congruent and the side lengths are proportional. Each cross-section is also parallel to its base. PRACTICE Consider Example 1 on page 51 of your workbook.

  • The Mathematics of Fels Sculptures
    THE MATHEMATICS OF FELS SCULPTURES DAVID FELS AND ANGELO B. MINGARELLI Abstract. We give a purely mathematical interpretation and construction of sculptures rendered by one of the authors, known herein as Fels sculptures. We also show that the mathematical framework underlying Ferguson's sculpture, The Ariadne Torus, may be considered a special case of the more general constructions presented here. More general discussions are also presented about the creation of such sculptures whether they be virtual or in higher dimensional space. Introduction Sculptors manifest ideas as material objects. We use a system wherein an idea is symbolized as a solid, governed by a set of rules, such that the sculpture is the expressed material result of applying rules to symbols. The underlying set of rules, being mathematical in nature, may thus lead to enormous abstraction and although sculptures are generally thought of as three dimensional objects, they can be created in four and higher dimensional (unseen) spaces with various projections leading to new and pleasant three dimensional sculptures. The interplay of mathematics and the arts has, of course, a very long and old history and we cannot begin to elaborate on this matter here. Recently however, the problem of creating mathematical programs for the construction of ribbed sculptures by Charles Perry was considered in [3]. For an insightful paper on topological tori leading to abstract art see also [5]. Spiral and twirling sculptures were analysed and constructed in [1]. This paper deals with a technique for sculpting works mostly based on wood (but not necessarily restricted to it) using abstract ideas based on twirls and tori, though again, not limited to them.

    Chapter 11. Three dimensional analytic geometry and vectors. Section 11.5 Quadric surfaces. Curves in R2 : x2 y2 ellipse + =1 a2 b2 x2 y2 hyperbola − =1 a2 b2 parabola y = ax2 or x = by2 A quadric surface is the graph of a second degree equation in three variables. The most general such equation is Ax2 + By2 + Cz2 + Dxy + Exz + F yz + Gx + Hy + Iz + J =0, where A, B, C, ..., J are constants. By translation and rotation the equation can be brought into one of two standard forms Ax2 + By2 + Cz2 + J =0 or Ax2 + By2 + Iz =0 In order to sketch the graph of a quadric surface, it is useful to determine the curves of intersection of the surface with planes parallel to the coordinate planes. These curves are called traces of the surface. Ellipsoids The quadric surface with equation x2 y2 z2 + + =1 a2 b2 c2 is called an ellipsoid because all of its traces are ellipses. 2 1 x y 3 2 1 z ±1 ±2 ±3 ±1 ±2 The six intercepts of the ellipsoid are (±a, 0, 0), (0, ±b, 0), and (0, 0, ±c) and the ellipsoid lies in the box |x| ≤ a, |y| ≤ b, |z| ≤ c Since the ellipsoid involves only even powers of x, y, and z, the ellipsoid is symmetric with respect to each coordinate plane.

  • Sculptures in S3
    Sculptures in S3 Saul Schleimer and Henry Segerman∗ Abstract We describe the construction of a number of sculptures. Each is based on a geometric design native to the three- sphere: the unit sphere in four-dimensional space. Via stereographic projection, we transfer the design to three- dimensional space. All of the sculptures are then fabricated by the 3D printing service Shapeways. 1 Introduction The three-sphere, denoted S3, is a three-dimensional analog of the ordinary two-dimensional sphere, S2. In n+ general, the n–dimensional sphere is a subset of R 1 as follows: n n+1 2 2 2 S = f(x0;x1;:::;xn) 2 R j x0 + x1 + ··· + xn = 1g: Thus S2 can be seen as the usual unit sphere in R3. Visualising objects in dimensions higher than three is non-trivial. However for S3 we can use stereographic projection to reduce the dimension from four to three. n n n Let N = (0;:::;0;1) be the north pole of S . We define stereographic projection r : S − fNg ! R by x0 x1 xn−1 r(x0;x1;:::;xn) = ; ;:::; : 1 − xn 1 − xn 1 − xn See [1, page 27]. Figure 1a displays the one-dimensional case; this is also a cross-section of the n– dimensional case. For any point (x;y) 2 S1 − fNg draw the straight line L between N and (x;y). Then L meets R1 at a single point; this is r(x;y).

  • The Mathematics of Mitering and Its Artful Application
    The Mathematics of Mitering and Its Artful Application Tom Verhoeff Koos Verhoeff Faculty of Mathematics and CS Valkenswaard, Netherlands Eindhoven University of Technology Den Dolech 2 5612 AZ Eindhoven, Netherlands Email: [email protected] Abstract We give a systematic presentation of the mathematics behind the classic miter joint and variants, like the skew miter joint and the (skew) fold joint. The latter is especially useful for connecting strips at an angle. We also address the problems that arise from constructing a closed 3D path from beams by using miter joints all the way round. We illustrate the possibilities with artwork making use of various miter joints. 1 Introduction The miter joint is well-known in the Arts, if only as a way of making fine frames for pictures and paintings. In its everyday application, a common problem with miter joints occurs when cutting a baseboard for walls meeting at an angle other than exactly 90 degrees. However, there is much more to the miter joint than meets the eye. In this paper, we will explore variations and related mathematical challenges, and show some artwork that this provoked. In Section 2 we introduce the problem domain and its terminology. A systematic mathematical treatment is presented in Section 3. Section 4 shows some artwork based on various miter joints. We conclude the paper in Section 5 with some pointers to further work. 2 Problem Domain and Terminology We will now describe how we encountered new problems related to the miter joint. To avoid misunderstand- ings, we first introduce some terminology.

  • Lesson 7: General Pyramids and Cones and Their Cross-Sections
    NYS COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM Lesson 7 M3 GEOMETRY Lesson 7: General Pyramids and Cones and Their Cross-Sections Student Outcomes . Students understand the definition of a general pyramid and cone and that their respective cross-sections are similar to the base. Students show that if two cones have the same base area and the same height, then cross-sections for the cones the same distance from the vertex have the same area. Lesson Notes In Lesson 7, students examine the relationship between a cross-section and the base of a general cone. Students understand that pyramids and circular cones are subsets of general cones just as prisms and cylinders are subsets of general cylinders. In order to understand why a cross-section is similar to the base, there is discussion regarding a dilation in three dimensions, explaining why a dilation maps a plane to a parallel plane. Then, a more precise argument is made using triangular pyramids; this parallels what is seen in Lesson 6, where students are presented with the intuitive idea of why bases of general cylinders are congruent to cross-sections using the notion of a translation in three dimensions, followed by a more precise argument using a triangular prism and SSS triangle congruence. Finally, students prove the general cone cross-section theorem, which is used later to understand Cavalieri’s principle. Classwork Opening Exercise (3 minutes) The goals of the Opening Exercise remind students of the parent category of general cylinders, how prisms are a subcategory under general cylinders, and how to draw a parallel to figures that “come to a point” (or, they might initially describe these figures); some of the figures that come to a point have polygonal bases, while some have curved bases.

  • Apollonius of Pergaconics. Books One - Seven
    APOLLONIUS OF PERGACONICS. BOOKS ONE - SEVEN INTRODUCTION A. Apollonius at Perga Apollonius was born at Perga (Περγα) on the Southern coast of Asia Mi- nor, near the modern Turkish city of Bursa. Little is known about his life before he arrived in Alexandria, where he studied. Certain information about Apollonius’ life in Asia Minor can be obtained from his preface to Book 2 of Conics. The name “Apollonius”(Apollonius) means “devoted to Apollo”, similarly to “Artemius” or “Demetrius” meaning “devoted to Artemis or Demeter”. In the mentioned preface Apollonius writes to Eudemus of Pergamum that he sends him one of the books of Conics via his son also named Apollonius. The coincidence shows that this name was traditional in the family, and in all prob- ability Apollonius’ ancestors were priests of Apollo. Asia Minor during many centuries was for Indo-European tribes a bridge to Europe from their pre-fatherland south of the Caspian Sea. The Indo-European nation living in Asia Minor in 2nd and the beginning of the 1st millennia B.C. was usually called Hittites. Hittites are mentioned in the Bible and in Egyptian papyri. A military leader serving under the Biblical king David was the Hittite Uriah. His wife Bath- sheba, after his death, became the wife of king David and the mother of king Solomon. Hittites had a cuneiform writing analogous to the Babylonian one and hi- eroglyphs analogous to Egyptian ones. The Czech historian Bedrich Hrozny (1879-1952) who has deciphered Hittite cuneiform writing had established that the Hittite language belonged to the Western group of Indo-European languages [Hro].

  • 14. Mathematics for Orbits: Ellipses, Parabolas, Hyperbolas Michael Fowler
    14. Mathematics for Orbits: Ellipses, Parabolas, Hyperbolas Michael Fowler Preliminaries: Conic Sections Ellipses, parabolas and hyperbolas can all be generated by cutting a cone with a plane (see diagrams, from Wikimedia Commons). Taking the cone to be xyz222+=, and substituting the z in that equation from the planar equation rp⋅= p, where p is the vector perpendicular to the plane from the origin to the plane, gives a quadratic equation in xy,. This translates into a quadratic equation in the plane—take the line of intersection of the cutting plane with the xy, plane as the y axis in both, then one is related to the other by a scaling xx′ = λ . To identify the conic, diagonalized the form, and look at the coefficients of xy22,. If they are the same sign, it is an ellipse, opposite, a hyperbola. The parabola is the exceptional case where one is zero, the other equates to a linear term. It is instructive to see how an important property of the ellipse follows immediately from this construction. The slanting plane in the figure cuts the cone in an ellipse. Two spheres inside the cone, having circles of contact with the cone CC, ′, are adjusted in size so that they both just touch the plane, at points FF, ′ respectively. It is easy to see that such spheres exist, for example start with a tiny sphere inside the cone near the point, and gradually inflate it, keeping it spherical and touching the cone, until it touches the plane. Now consider a point P on the ellipse.
