External Political causes of the confederation

American Civil War – The war happened over the issues of slavery and control over economic and political decision making. the Confederate States fought against the USA  in the civil war.

Trent Affairs –  A British mail ship named Trent was stopped by a American warship. The Americans captured two confederate people off the British mail ship but they ended up returning them to not cause any more conflict between the Americans and Britain

St. Albans – The st Albans Is a town that was attacked by the Confederates. This battle made Canadians realize they did not have a good defence system.

Manifest Destiny: This was the belief that Americans were destined by God to take over all of North America.

Fenian Raids: These were a Irish group that wanted to be separated from Britain. They were not successful but it led to the want for BNA colonies to unit.

Britain’s Feelings About BNA Colony’s: Britian didn’t see the BNA colonies as a valuable resource any more. The BNA colonies realized that they had to combine to work together so they could defend against the Americans.

They decided to be one big stronger, more power ful colony so they could defend against America. This made sense because Britain no loner had a need for the BNA colonies since they were no longer a valuable resource.

Confederation

People were making their income off the railways and so they didn’t have to work as hard to earn that money. The reciprosity treaty made Canada earn more profit by trading with the USA. They thought this would take Canada out of a depression that the corn laws put them in these were all effects that then encourage the BNA colonies to unite.

Math – week 9

This week in math 10 I learned how to use a area model to determine the expansion. You simply plug the first part of the equation to the top of the area model and the second part coming down on the left side. You then create boxes for each term. You then needs to solve each box for example 3m multiplied by 1m squared is equal to 3m to the power of three. You them simplify all these terms to get your answer.

Why the rebellion failed

“We were perfectly raw and I do not believe that there was one man in the entire company who even understude the manual of arms”. This shows that they were not prepared for what was about to happen. This would deffinitly be a cause for failure of the rebellion. ” I was rather in front when the fireing began, and stood in more danger from the rifles of my friends than the mosquets of my enemies” This shows they were not organized and did not have the plan fully planned out. This is also a cause for the rebellion. “But 800 ran where no one pursued , and unfortunately ran the wrong way ” This is more proof that the failur of the rebellion was based on not being organized or prepared for what they were about to encounter.

This week I learned how to draw a model representing distributing property. To do this you line up the first half of the equation at the top and the second part on the left side. You then prosseed to use the write tiles meaning the long rectangle representing X and the small squares representing 1. These models can only be used with small equations that don’t have Xsquared in them. As shown above you trace out the boxes to see what you are left with. The squares and rectangles in the middle represent the simplified answer.  I then recognized that there was three X that were positive and one

This week I learned how to find a side length of a right angle triangle if all I knew was a angle and one other side length. In this equation I knew an angle and the opposite side length so I used SOH CAH TOA to figure out that this triangle was a tan question. You want the X in this question to be the numerator in order to do this you recipicate but what you do to one side you must to to the other so once you have recipicated both you are left with 1/tan 8 = x/5 then you divide 5 by tan 8 the answer to that is 35.6 which is the answer to x.

Solving trig equations

You use sin when you have two of these measurements= a angle, the hypotenuse length, or the opposite side length. SOH stands for Sin, Opposite, Hypotenuse. In the equation we are looking for the angle or x so the equation is Sin x = 3/10. Since we need to figure out x we use the button on our calculator that says sin-1 then times it by 3/10 to get our answer of x.

You use cos when you have two of these measurements= a angle, the adjacent side length, or the hypotenuse side length. CAH stands for Cos, Adjacent, Hypotenuse. In the equation we are looking for the angle or x so the equation is Cos x = 12/19. Since we need to figure out x we use the button on our calculator that says cos-1 then times it by 12/19 to get our answer of x.

You use Tan when you have two of these measurements= a angle, the adjacent side length, or the opposite side length. TOA stands for Tan, Opposite, Adjacent. In the equation we are looking for the angle or x so the equation is Tan x = 6/9. Since we need to figure out x we use the button on our calculator that says Tan-1 then times it by 6/9 to get our answer of x.
