Crime Scene Decoders Geometry: Logic and Reasoning Unit 2: Crime Scene Decoders Geometry: Logic and Reasoning Standard Focus: Geometry and Spatial Sense Time Range : 1-3 Days Supplies : Pencil and Paper Topics of Focus : - Logic and Conjectures - Compound Statements - Venn Diagrams - Deductive Reasoning This particular was mapped to the Logic and Reasoning curriculum of most geometry textbooks and can be used as an enrichment or review activity. 9. Prove theorems about lines and angles. Theorems include: vertical angles are congruent; when a transversal crosses parallel lines, alternate Congruence G-CO interior angles are congruent and corresponding angles are congruent; points on a perpendicular bisector of a line segment are exactly those equidistant from the segment’s endpoints. 10. Prove theorems about triangles. Theorems include: measures of interior angles of a triangle sum to 180°; base angles of isosceles triangles Congruence G-CO are congruent; the segment joining midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half the length; the medians of a triangle meet at a point. 11. Prove theorems about parallelograms. Theorems include: opposite sides are congruent, opposite angles are congruent, the diagonals of a Congruence G-CO parallelogram bisect each other, and conversely, rectangles are parallelograms with congruent diagonals. © 21st Century Math Projects CSD: The eviDenCe name:_______________________________ 1.

Clue ___________ CrypTiC TexT meSSage SuSpect ___________ © 21st Century Math Projects Crime Scene Decoders Geometry: Logic & Reasoning Detectives, What’s another month without a series of high profile robberies at the hands of the Mathemagicians? The evil genius terrorist group has pulled off another elaborate crime spree that has left the country of France in disarray. As the Mathemagicians work to build their world conquering device, our investigators are trying to piece together the thefts by an anonymous associate, Quasi Truthful. Cocky as always, the Mathemagicians have left behind a trail of mathematical puzzles and a cryptic text message that must be solved. After solving the puzzles, you can decode the message which will lead to Quasi’s favorite number. So far there are six suspects that police have questioned. It is hoped that someone with relatively strong geometry and reasoning skills can crack the codes that have puzzled the detectives on the case so far. Since you are being brought in as a specialist you have to have definitive proof in order for any arrest to hold up in court. You need to be prepared to state your case and demonstrate your understanding of the following skills that Quasi is known to use in the notes. - Logic and Conjectures - Compound Statements - Venn Diagrams - Deductive Reasoning Be sure to include: - Other examples of the concepts - Definitions - Any other relevant information. Keep in mind, the slightest miscalculation or illegible footnote could result in a not guilty verdict. Oh, did I mention that use of a calculator might prematurely set off his world conquering device? Good luck to you, gumshoe. Chief Harris © 21st Century Math Projects Who is Quasi Truthful?

While it’s unclear how these oysters may factor into the world conquering device, Quasi Truthful left this note. While my French is a little rusty, I’m pretty sure they like cheese. After the appetizer and entrée in a classic French meal, there is a course of cheese. 200 customers could choose any combination of three different cheeses.

In 2009, the Ateliers workshop focused on rivers as development project areas and key components of spatial planning. The 2010 session was dedicated to the urban/rural interface on the outskirts of metropolitan areas. For 2011, the Ateliers propose an in-depth study of a major landmark and icon in the Paris metropolis, namely the La Défense business district and the areas over which it exerts its local and regional influence. 1 Preamble .............................................................................................................................. 3 2 Paris, the historical axis and La Défense .............................................................................. 4 2.1 The historical axis – origins ........................................................................................................................4 2.2 La Défense – origins ...................................................................................................................................4 2.3 The historical axis conquers

  • CHAMPS-ELYSEES ROLL OR STROLL from the Arc De Triomphe to the Tuileries Gardens
    CHAMPS-ELYSEES ROLL OR STROLL From the Arc de Triomphe to the Tuileries Gardens Don’t leave Paris without experiencing the avenue des Champs-Elysées (shahnz ay-lee-zay). This is Paris at its most Parisian: monumental side- walks, stylish shops, grand cafés, and glimmering showrooms. This tour covers about three miles. If that seems like too much for you, break it down into several different outings (taxis roll down the Champs-Elysées frequently and Métro stops are located every 3 blocks). Take your time and enjoy. It’s a great roll or stroll day or night. The tour begins at the top of the Champs-Elysées, across a huge traffic circle from the famous Arc de Triomphe. Note that getting to the arch itself, and access within the arch, are extremely challenging for travelers with limited mobility. I suggest simply viewing the arch from across the street (described below). If you are able, and you wish to visit the arch, here’s the informa- tion: The arch is connected to the top of the Champs-Elysées via an underground walkway (twenty-five 6” steps down and thirty 6” steps back up). To reach this passageway, take the Métro to the not-acces- sible Charles de Gaulle Etoile station and follow sortie #1, Champs- Elysées/Arc de Triomphe signs. You can take an elevator only partway up the inside of the arch, to a museum with some city views. To reach the best views at the very top, you must climb the last 46 stairs. For more, see the listing on page *TK.

  • Syllabus Paris
    Institut de Langue et de Culture Française Spring Semester 2017 Paris, World Arts Capital PE Perrier de La Bâthie / [email protected] Paris, World Capital of Arts and Architecture From the 17th through the 20th centuries Since the reign of Louis XIV until the mid-20th century, Paris had held the role of World Capital of Arts. For three centuries, the City of Light was the place of the most audacious and innovative artistic advances, focusing on itself the attention of the whole world. This survey course offers students a wide panorama on the evolution of arts and architecture in France and more particularly in Paris, from the beginning of the 17th century to nowadays. The streets of the French capital still preserve the tracks of its glorious history through its buildings, its town planning and its great collections of painting, sculpture and decorative arts. As an incubator of modernity, Paris saw the rising of a new epoch governed – for better or worse – by faith in progress and reason. As literature and science, art participated in the transformations of society, being surely its more accurate reflection. Since the French Revolution, art have accompanied political and social changes, opened to the contestation of academic practice, and led to an artistic and architectural avant-garde driven to depict contemporary experience and to develop new representational means. Creators, by their plastic experiments and their creativity, give the definitive boost to a modern aesthetics and new references. After the trauma of both World War and the American economic and cultural new hegemony, appeared a new artistic order, where artists confronted with mass-consumer society, challenging an insane post-war modernity.
