IX. Polygons. The student:

2) uses the formulas to calculate the area of the triangle, the rectangle, the square, the parallelogram, the rhombus and the trapezoid; is able to determine the lengths of line segments in tasks of comparable difficulty:

a) calculate the shortest altitude of the right triangle whose sides are: 5 cm, 12 cm and 13 cm,

b) The diagonals of the rhombus ABCD are AC = 8 dm i BD = 10 dm. The diagonal BD is extended to point E in such a way that the line segment BE is twice as long as this diagonal. Calculate the area of the triangle CDE (There are two possible answers).

Introductionmadde1a7e6fa20e59_1528450127855_0Introduction

The teacher informs the students that during this class they will learn the formula for the area of a parallelogramarea of a parallelogramarea of a parallelogram. They will calculate the area of: rhombus, rectangle, square. They will also determine the length of the sides of the parallelogram of the given area.

Students revise the properties of the parallelogram, the rhombus, the rectangle and the square.

Proceduremadde1a7e6fa20e59_1528446435040_0Procedure

Task
Students work individually using computers. Their task is to determine the formula for the area of a parallelogramarea of a parallelogramarea of a parallelogram.

[Geogebra applet 1]

Based on this exercise, students discover through brainstorming that:

The area of a parallelogram is is equal to the product of the length of the base and the altitude of this base:madde1a7e6fa20e59_1527752263647_0The area of a parallelogram is is equal to the product of the length of the base and the altitude of this base:

P=ah

[Illustration 1]

Task
Students calculate the altitude of the parallelogram, knowing that the length of the side to which the altitude is drawn is 10 cm and the area of a parallelogramarea of a parallelogramarea of a parallelogram is 25 cmIndeks górny 2.

Task
Students work individually using computers. Their task is to determine the formula for the area of rhombus:madde1a7e6fa20e59_1527752256679_0determine the formula for the area of rhombus:

P=ef2

[Geogebra applet 2]

[Illustration 2]

Task
Students calculate the area of rhombusarea of rhombusarea of rhombus whose perimeter is 56 cm, and one of the diagonals is 16 cm.

Task
Students calculate the area of rectanglearea of rectanglearea of rectangle whose diagonal is 13 cm and one of the sides is 1,2 dm.

An extra task:
Calculate the area of squarearea of squarearea of square, knowing that its diagonal is longer by 1 unit than the side.

Lesson summarymadde1a7e6fa20e59_1528450119332_0Lesson summary

Students do the revision exercises. Then together they sum‑up the classes, by formulating the conclusions to memorise.
