Area, Perimeter Assignment 2
Create a Work sheet to Compute Areas

Let's start with the homework.
 
Homework:
Create and answer an area question like the one below.
 
Classwork:
 
1st: Quiz on definitions, formulas, and computing area and perimeter.
like:
 
2nd: Produce spread sheet which will compute the areas of:
rectangles
triangles
parallelogram
trapezoids
circles
 
For each of the above the spread sheet will include:
 
the graphic from this page --
      Copy & Paste it into the spread sheet.
 
cells in which to place required dimensions
 
cells which use formulas to complete the computation.

^2
To test the formula for computing the area of a trapezoid use the following info:
area of a trapezoid: h(b1 + b2) divided by 2
you figure out the needed formula and check it with
b1 = 2
b2 = 4
height = 6
area = 18 square units
Last:
Email your spread sheet to yourself and to your prof.
