Similarities

Today in class, we practiced drawing things that are similar, and we discussed what similar means. To be similar, is to have things in common. When an image is redrawn in a similar way, the first image that is referred to that is used to draw the second drawing is known as the original drawing. The second image that is similar to the original drawing is known as the image drawing. Today in class, we worked on a figure activity, and some things that were similar between the two shapes, is the general shape, the degrees of each angle, and the vertices. What was different about the two shapes, is the lines of each angle get longer or shorter, the size of each shape, the area of each shape, each length of the image is twice the length of the original, and the perimeter of each shape. This is what we did in class on December 3rd, 2009.
