Surface Area of a Sphere

For this assignment, we had to cut an orange in half in order to trace the circumference of the circle on to a piece of paper. We then had to trace as many halves of the orange on to the paper. After, we had to peel the oranges and then use the peels to see […]

Garibaldi Lake Task

Garibaldi Lake Task To estimate the volume of the lake, you can multiply the given surface area with the average depth (119m). To find how much water is behind the Barrier, I first converted the surface area (in km) to meters. Then using the surface area in meters, I multiplied it with the average depth […]

Math 10 Honors Numbers Summary

For the first unit of Math 10 Honours, some new things I learned are converting entire radicals to mixed radicals and vice versa. I also learned solving cubed, 4th, and 5th roots to convert into mixed/ entire radicals. Converting entire radicals to mixed radicals(vice versa) that includes variables was something that was new for me. […]
