Supersize Me (Pizza Blog) 11.6
Pizza, Pizza, Pizza! How incredibile, but it can be quite the rip off. (But that is another rant.) In this blog, I found whether a 12 inch pizza for 9 bucks, is a better deal (or nah) than a 22 inch pizza for 20$. I found that $1 for the 12 inch pizza bought you 13 square inches, while 1$ for the 22 inch pizza bought you 19 square inches, making the bigger pizza the better deal.
Final Reflection
Nate's Point of View on Geometry.
This year in geometry was a great experience filled with learning and shape drawing. My geometer became my best friend, but I will hopefully never have to talk to it again after finals. I feel as if I have learned a lot through all the units, and I knew I grew because the doctor said I have grown 3.5 inches this year. I still feel like I could polish my skills of finding surface area, but I feel as if my volume skills are quite impressive. My favorite blog post was the math safari. I am proud of how I have done on tests this year, but feel as if I could have paid more attention sometimes. The nicest thing I did for someone was when I didn't bully Liam and when I didn't thrown paper airplanes at Marco; however, I was sick that day. I think the best advice to give to incoming ninth graders for geometry would be to make sure to draw as many shapes as possible as often as possible.

He hates these cans! This image really captures the year in math because we created cans and cans are cylinders and cylinders are prisms and prisms can have there volume and surface discovered, and i V and SA can be discovered, then it was made of shapes, and if it was made of shapes, it can be drawn as shapes, and if it can be drawn as shapes, it is geometry, and if it is geometry it is a chain of reasoning.

Surface Area and Volukulele
I will be finding the surface area and volume of my homemade Cigar Box Ukulele.
SA: Box
Length: 21 cm
Height: 7
Width: 16cm
TA= (74 7) + (16 21) + (336 - 24)
TA Box = 1165 cm2
Base 1: 16x21
Base 2: 16x21 - (circles)
SA: Neck
Length: 27 cm
Height: 2 cm
Width: 3 cm
TA = (60 2) + 2(3 27)
TA Neck = 282 cm2
SA: Head
Length: 9 cm
Height: 1 cm
Width: 6 cm
TA = (30 1) + 2(54)
TA Head = 138
SA of Nate's Ukulele = 1585 cm2
Volume of Body
21716 =
Volume = 2352cm3
Volume of Neck
27 2 3
Volume of Neck = 162cm3
Volume of Head
916
V = 54cm3
Total Volume of Nate’s Ukulele = 2568cm3
I will probably need to know the surface area and volume of my instrument because if i plan to sell them the measurements will be useful. Customers will be interested to know the measurements and scale of my instruments.
