MYP Geometry Unit 2: Similarity and Congruence in ArchitectureSimilar/Congruent Triangles Unit Project – Geogebra constructions to determine congruent/similar triangles & quadrilaterals.AOI: Human Ingenuity, Approaches to LearningCriteria: B – Application and Reasoning; C – Communication; D-ReflectionLink to Geogebra installer: http://www.geogebra.org/cms/en/installersProject: Each student gets a database/pool of examples of similar and congruent figures in architecture (international examples). Students need tomatch the quadrilaterals and triangles to pictures they have selected of architecture and explain where they see similar triangles/quadrilaterals;congruent triangles/quadrilaterals, and justify their conclusions using geometry properties learned in class. (ASA, AAS, SSS, SAS, HL). Students select or are assigned a minimum of two pictures to analyze. They should cite the building/structure, architect if possible.Paste the picture into Sketchpad/Geogebra and superimpose triangles and quadrilaterals onto the architecture. Measure the sides andangles. Find potential similar and congruent triangles and quadrilaterals and measure angles and sides using superimposed figures. (Willneed intensive modeling – Netbooks).Students will classify triangles and quadrilaterals accurately. They should identify as many different shapes as possible.Students summarize their findings in a conclusion as to why congruent shapes and the concept of similarity.Students must provide at least one independent example to achieve Advanced (not from the pool of pictures.) The pool of pictures will beposted on a web page off the teacher page.Report Template: Picture with superimposed quadrilaterals & trianglesTriangle/Quadrilateral 1 Comparison withCongruent/Similar?

MYP Geometry Unit 2: Similarity and Congruence in ArchitectureExample:Assigned Picture will be pasted into Geogebra File.Label and Identify Basic Geometry Figures (point, line segment,angle)Draw and label polygons to compare; Measure angles/sidesSummarize findings: Classify all polygons (and reasons why). ABC GIH through AA postulate.Quad JKLM is a trapezoid since –J –K 180 (two linesw/transversal and same side interior angles sum to 180 meansparallel lines).There are multiple instances of congruent triangles and similartriangles in this example. Congruent triangles aid in the aestheticsas well as useful architecture. Multiple instances of parallel lines,trapezoids also exist.Guiding questions: Why do builders/architects use congruentshapes? Similar shapes? Symmetry?

Thesummary of the importance ofcongruence and similarity inarchitecture is clear and logical.The history and location is clearand engaging for only one or twoexamples.

Aproficient explanation can beachieved with limited assistance.Correct terminology and notationare used, but it is sometimes noteasy to understand what wasdone.1Student rarely superimposesreasonable shapes over thearchitecture. Requires significant reteaching.One or more pictures of differentarchitecture are superimposedand analyzed for congruence andsimilarity. Significant errors existin one or more examples.The history and location is givenfor only one example, or hassignificant omissions. Thesummary has significantomissions or errors that could becorrected with additionalinstruction.One picture is are superimposed andanalyzed for congruence andsimilarity, or incomplete examples aresubmitted. Significant re-teaching oranalysis is required.The history and location for theexamples are mostly missing ordifficult to follow. The summaryrequires major revision or is missing.Explanation shows limitedunderstanding of how similarity andcongruence are applied inarchitecture.There is little use, or a lot ofinappropriate use, of terminology andnotation.
