This week, we do more on Decimals, Fractions, and Percents. I’ve put the tessellation site for fun.
- Measurement on Yahooligans
- Decimals and %
- Order of Operations game on FunBrain
- Build Tessellations (like Busy Beetles)
This week’s mathematics question. You must answer in a full sentence or sentences, and explain how you solved the problem. Answers that don’t have that, will not be posted.
Question: What is the area of a triangle where the base is 10 cm, the sides are 6 and 7 cm, and the height is 8 cm? What is the perimeter of that triangle?

the answer is 40cm2 because you multiply 10 times 8 and you need to divide the 8 and times 10 times 4 which = 40cm2

Ten plus six plus seven plus eight equals thirty-one is the awnser.

10 plus 7plus 8plus 6 equals 31.

Okay, you all have half the answer. One of you gave the area, and the others gave the perimeter. I asked for both. Good work, but remember to read the whole question.
