XI. Calculations in geometry. The student:

2) calculates the areaareaarea of : the triangle, the square, the rectangle, the rhombusrhombusrhombus, the parallelogramparallelogramparallelogram and,the trapezium, presented in the figure drawing and in the practical situations, also including for data requiring the a conversion of units and in situations when when the dimensions are not typical, for example the area of thea triangle with a sidesideside of 1 km and the altitudealtitudealtitude of 1 mm;

4) calculates the area of polygons using the method of division dividing them into smaller polygons or  completing the larger ones.

Introductionm3d5177160e290a1d_1528450127855_0Introduction

The student prepares the model of the  parallelogramparallelogramparallelogram with the sides of  8 cm and 4 cm at home and brings it for theto classes.

The teacher introduces the topic of the lesson:The teacher informs the students about the topic of the lesson. They are going to learninghow to calculate the areaareaarea of the parallelogram and the rhombus and area and how to solvingethe tasks using this abilityskill.

Revision of the definition of the altitudealtitudealtitude of the parallelogram altitude;, the description of the diagonals of the rhombusrhombusrhombus diagonals and the formula of for the areaareaarea of the rectangle area.

The segment which is perpendicular to the sides of the parallelogramparallelogramparallelogram sides and  whichwhose endings belong to them or their extensions  is called the altitudealtitudealtitude of the parallelogram.

The diagonal of the rhombus diagonal is a segment connecting two vertices of the rhombusrhombusrhombus vertices which is not a sidesideside of the rhombusrhombus side.

The areaareaarea of thea rectangle equals the product of the its length of its adjacent sides length.

Procedurem3d5177160e290a1d_1528446435040_0Procedure

The teacher asks the following questions:

Is the rhombusrhombusrhombus a parallelogram?

Is the parallelogramparallelogramparallelogram a rhombus?

How many diagonals does the parallelogram have? What are their properties?

Are the parallelogram diagonals equal?

Task
Cut the parallelogramparallelogramparallelogram you have prepared into two parts in such a way that you can form the rectangle. Using these parts make a rectangle. Measure its length and width. Calculate the areaareaarea of the rectangle area.

Now  put all the paper pieces together  in order to get the previous original parallelogramparallelogramparallelogram. What do you think Hhow large do you thinkbig is the areaareaarea of this parallelogram area ? Why do you think so?

The students observe watch the way ofhow to calculateing the area of the parallelogram area.

Task
Open the slideshow and observe watch the way ofhowcalculating the areaareaarea of thea parallelogramparallelogramparallelogram calculated.

[Slideshow]

The students and the teacher draw the following conclusion:

To calculate the area of the parallelogram we multiply its side length by the altitude conducted to this side.m3d5177160e290a1d_1527752256679_0To calculate the area of the parallelogram we multiply its side length by the altitude conducted to this side.

[Illustration 1]

The students calculate the area of the parallelogram areaareaarea havingknowing the side length and the altitudealtitudealtitude led drawn to this sidesideside.

Task
Calculate the area of a parallelogram with the sidesideside of  9 cm and the altitudealtitudealtitude of 5 cm led drawn to this side.

The teacher asks the question:

How can we calculate the areaareaarea of the rhombusrhombusrhombus area?

The students together with the teacher draw the following conclusion:

The rhombus is a parallelogramparallelogramparallelogram so we calculate its area in the same way as a areaareaarea of the parallelogram area.

[Illustration 2]

The students watch the animation to observe thewith a different another way of calculating the areaareaarea of the rhombusrhombusrhombus area.

Task
Watch the animation to find out how to calculate the area of the rhombus areaareaarea.

[ANIMATION]

What conclusion can be madedrawn?

The area of the rhombusrhombusrhombus is one‑half of the product of its diagonals.

[Illustration 3]

Task
Calculate the areaareaarea of the rhombus with the diagonals of 12 cm and 6 cm.

An extra task
There is a parallelogramparallelogramparallelogram with the dimensions of 5 cm x 6 cm. The altitude led drawn to the longer sidesideside is 15 cm. Calculate the other altitudealtitudealtitude of this parallelogram.
