Unique Buildings + Math Question
Waymarking.com
Great site for buildings.All categorized for easy browsing.Check the Oddly shaped buildings category for good buildings for math homework
I am doing the Gheens Science Hall & Planetarium so choose something else.IMAGE BELOW IS NOT THE ONE IM DOING
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
Mathematics in Architecture
(1) Model
The model must be 3D say you like Eiffel Tower. So build a 3D about 2 ft tall. Highlight the curve which depicts the mathematical principles behind it.
(2) In an illustration board or cartridge paper, paste the printed 2D drawing of the model from the internet. Surround it with INFORMATION behind the model - the APPLIED MATH. Keep the wordings to the minimum. Use equations rather than long declarative sentences. Few words.
Evaluation: Model (Choice, color, coordination, pattern) 50%
Info Sheet (Accuracy, proportion, impact) 50%
Use LOCAL and FOREIGN IDEAS. I am sending you my home-sweet-home.
CHAIR: Amanda McCreath VICE-CHAIR: Kirk Lewis
Date of Exhibition: Nov 28, 2008 FRIDAY. Invite your family and friends. (AS1 MATH and AS2 MATERIALS and CONSTRUCTION)

Capital Punishment
One might have a slight hunch that something is wrong with our society.Accounts of recent abductions plaguing out country have launched the greater populace into a state of paranoia.Something new needs to be done within the nation and capital punishment eagerly keeps shouting Pick me! Is it the right way forward?
Supporters of the Gaol speak of advantages of it such as "Freeing up" space in jails, Scaring criminals out of crime and a reduction in hte amount of taxpayers money being eaten up by criminals.Harsh times Harsh measures?
However ethics is a expert at putting one at two minds on almost anything as what if comes into play.What happens if you kill the wrong man? Must the tree of liberty be refreshed with the blood of patriots and traitors alike?
100 criminals for every innocent man?
im not sure but some particularly wicked people need to just die

Unique Music - The Venetian Snares
This song is perfect in my ears.Beautiful music.Its Techno plus Drum and Bass with a dose of Clasical which puts this song somewhere in a sub genre like Beethoven Virus*
*Techno has a lot of sub genres (maybe more than music itself)
Math Oral Presentation
As1-A and AS1-B MATH ORAL PRESENTATION
Mr. Absin
(HORRIBLE SPELLING)
Select ONE topic: CIRCLE, PARABOLA, ELLIPSE, HYPERBOLA
How to go about it:
(1) From whatever sources, find an equation of any conic mentioned above in general form.
(2) You must be able to explain the transformation of the equation into Standard Form (on the board)
(3) You musy be able to determine the properties of your conics including directrix and eccentricities.
(4) With power point slides, draw your conic enhanced by animation and colour.
(5) Find a picture or video or slides from the internet where your conic is applied. Example of this is the one I sent to your class representatives on PARABOLA. Or perhaps, you can make your own video highlighting an application of your conic. or example, the Ring Road depicting the application of a circle.
With your best attire and mood, come to class next week (AS1-A Tues & AS1-B Wed).
Grading: Excellence in explaining the transformation of the equation -
& finding all the properties. - 25%
Quality of the Power Point Slides in Graphing the Conic - 25%
How you explain math in the application of you Conic - 50%
