Table of Contents v Lesson 30 Introduction 5.G.B.4 Classify Two-Dimensional Figures Use What You Know In this lesson, you will classify polygons based on their properties. Take a look at this problem. Arrange the polygons below so that a polygon can also be called by the name of the polygon before it. Order them from left to right. A B C a. Complete the table below. Put a check in each box if the polygon has the property listed. Property Polygon A Polygon B Polygon C 4 sides 2 pairs of parallel sides 2 pairs of sides of equal length 4 right angles 4 sides of equal length b. Write the most specific name for each polygon from the list below. quadrilateral parallelogram rectangle square A: B: C: c. How would you arrange the polygons so each shape has all the properties of the shape(s) before it? 300 Lesson 30 Classify Two-Dimensional Figures ©Curriculum Associates, LLC Copying is not permitted. Find Out More Shapes can be classified according to their properties. When you order categories of polygons by their properties, you put them in a hierarchy. A hierarchy organizes categories from the most to least general. One model you can use to show a hierarchy is a Venn diagram. A Venn diagram can show categories and subcategories. This Venn diagram shows that squares have all the properties that rectangles have, plus more. This means all squares are also rectangles. A square is also a parallelogram and a quadrilateral. Quadrilaterals Most general category Parallelograms Rectangles Squares Most specific subcategory You can also use a flow chart to show the hierarchy of quadrilaterals. The most general category is at the left, while the most specific is at the right. This means that a figure that belongs in one category also belongs in all categories to the left. Quadrilaterals Parallelograms Rectangles Squares Reflect 1 How are the flow chart and the Venn diagram alike? How are they different? ©Curriculum Associates, LLC Copying is not permitted. Lesson 30 Classify Two-Dimensional Figures 301 Lesson 30 Modeled and Guided Instruction Learn About Ordering Shapes in a Hierarchy Read the problem below. Then explore different ways to classify figures in a hierarchy. Classify the following triangles from the most general to the most specific: scalene triangle, isosceles triangle, and equilateral triangle. Use a tree diagram to classify them as types of triangles. Model It You can understand the problem by listing the properties of the triangles in a table before arranging them in a tree diagram. Types of Triangles Properties of Sides Isosceles 2 or 3 sides of equal length Scalene no sides of equal length Equilateral 3 sides of equal length Model It You can represent the problem with a tree diagram. A tree diagram can also be used to show a hierarchy. Put the most general category as the top branch. Then put the more specific subcategories as the branches.

Connect It Now you will solve the problem from the previous page by using the table to complete a tree diagram. 2 Why is “Triangles” in the top row of the tree diagram? 3 Write “Scalene” and “Isosceles” in the Triangles second row of the tree diagram at the right. Why are those categories separate? 4 Write “Equilateral” beneath “Isosceles.” Why can all equilateral triangles be classified as isosceles triangles? 5 How can you use a tree diagram to order figures?

A quadrilateral is a 4-sided polygon bounded by 4 finite line segments. The word ‘quadrilateral’ is composed of two Latin words, Quadric meaning ‘four’ and latus meaning ‘side’ . It is a two-dimensional figure having four sides (or edges) and four vertices. A circle is the locus of all points in a plane which are equidistant from a fixed point. If all the four vertices of a quadrilateral ABCD lie on the circumference of the circle, then ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral. In other words, if any four points on the circumference of a circle are joined, they form vertices of a cyclic quadrilateral. It can be visualized as a quadrilateral which is inscribed in a circle, i.e.. all four vertices of the quadrilateral lie on the circumference of the circle. What is a Cyclic Quadrilateral?

  • The Construction, by Euclid, of the Regular Pentagon
    THE CONSTRUCTION, BY EUCLID, OF THE REGULAR PENTAGON Jo˜ao Bosco Pitombeira de CARVALHO Instituto de Matem´atica, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Cidade Universit´aria, Ilha do Fund˜ao, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT We present a modern account of Ptolemy’s construction of the regular pentagon, as found in a well-known book on the history of ancient mathematics (Aaboe [1]), and discuss how anachronistic it is from a historical point of view. We then carefully present Euclid’s original construction of the regular pentagon, which shows the power of the method of equivalence of areas. We also propose how to use the ideas of this paper in several contexts. Key-words: Regular pentagon, regular constructible polygons, history of Greek mathe- matics, equivalence of areas in Greek mathematics. 1 Introduction This paper presents Euclid’s construction of the regular pentagon, a highlight of the Elements, comparing it with the widely known construction of Ptolemy, as presented by Aaboe [1]. This gives rise to a discussion on how to view Greek mathematics and shows the care on must have when adopting adapting ancient mathematics to modern styles of presentation, in order to preserve not only content but the very way ancient mathematicians thought and viewed mathematics. 1 The material here presented can be used for several purposes. First of all, in courses for prospective teachers interested in using historical sources in their classrooms. In several places, for example Brazil, the history of mathematics is becoming commonplace in the curricula of courses for prospective teachers, and so one needs materials that will awaken awareness of the need to approach ancient mathematics as much as possible in its own terms, and not in some pasteurized downgraded versions.

  • Petrie Schemes
    Canad. J. Math. Vol. 57 (4), 2005 pp. 844–870 Petrie Schemes Gordon Williams Abstract. Petrie polygons, especially as they arise in the study of regular polytopes and Coxeter groups, have been studied by geometers and group theorists since the early part of the twentieth century. An open question is the determination of which polyhedra possess Petrie polygons that are simple closed curves. The current work explores combinatorial structures in abstract polytopes, called Petrie schemes, that generalize the notion of a Petrie polygon. It is established that all of the regular convex polytopes and honeycombs in Euclidean spaces, as well as all of the Grunbaum–Dress¨ polyhedra, pos- sess Petrie schemes that are not self-intersecting and thus have Petrie polygons that are simple closed curves. Partial results are obtained for several other classes of less symmetric polytopes. 1 Introduction Historically, polyhedra have been conceived of either as closed surfaces (usually topo- logical spheres) made up of planar polygons joined edge to edge or as solids enclosed by such a surface. In recent times, mathematicians have considered polyhedra to be convex polytopes, simplicial spheres, or combinatorial structures such as abstract polytopes or incidence complexes. A Petrie polygon of a polyhedron is a sequence of edges of the polyhedron where any two consecutive elements of the sequence have a vertex and face in common, but no three consecutive edges share a commonface. For the regular polyhedra, the Petrie polygons form the equatorial skew polygons. Petrie polygons may be defined analogously for polytopes as well. Petrie polygons have been very useful in the study of polyhedra and polytopes, especially regular polytopes.
