Following spring break, my math class began on a new unit on trigonometry. Trigonometry is the study of triangles and the relationship between angles and sides. For grade 10, we are only working with right angles where one angle is 90° so that in grade 11 and 12, it will be a lot easier to…

For our last week before spring break, we finished our measurement with calculating the surface area and volume of 3d objects such as Boxes, Triangular prisms, Cones, Cylinders, and the shape we will be focusing on, Spheres. A sphere is a 3d version of a circle like a ball and has of the volume of…

Following our exponents test, we have started on the next unit of math which is measurement. So far we have learned the different ways people have measured objects, how to convert certain measurements into others, and how to calculate the surface and perimeter of an object. For this weeks blog post, I am going to…

In week 4 of math, we continued with exponents and for the most part we reviewed from the week before. However, there were a few things that I did learn about before our unit test. For this week’s post, I will show you a process I learned about how to use exponents. This process is…
