Do Now 10/16/17 Day: 28 A

1.) What is the difference between a radius and diameter? Draw a

picture to support your answer.
2.) What is circumference?

For the following pictures determine if the ruler is set up to measure

correctly:
Todays Objectives:
1. Research common formulas involved in circles and sphere problems
2. Derive pi
3. Apply what we know about circles to answer questions about their
formulas
Activity: Common Formulas
You have the next ten minutes to work with one partner to find all of
the formulas for the area and circumference of a circle and for
volume and surface area of a sphere
Math Lab Grading
Today you will work with one partner to complete a math lab
The goal of this lab is to measure the circumference and diameter of
different sized figures that are circular and compare them
Be sure to fill in all sections of the data table
After filling in the data table with your measurements you must
answer the questions that follow
All questions must be answered in complete sentences

Be Careful Measuring
This activity is very sensitive to measurement error.
Be sure to use the most accurate measurement possible in your data
table
Always remember to measure from the first tick mark on the ruler
Take note of the fractions made by the tick marks on the ruler
Math Lab
You have the next 30 minutes to work on your math lab
**you must completely fill in your data table during this time- there
will not be more time allocated for this in class**
If you fill in your data table completely you can begin answering the
questions.
The completed lab is due tomorrow
Exit Ticket
Please complete your exit ticket and turn it into the bin on the out
door at the bell
