NESTED
BOXES
Halfmark
is
in
the
design
phase
for
a
set
of
nested
gift
boxes,
and
needs
your
assistance
to
create
the
specifications
of
the
new
product.
In
the
drafting
phase,
the
design
is
plotted
on
a
coordinate
plane
for
ease
and
consistency
in
labeling.
PLOT
EACH
OF
THE
TASKS
ON
THE
SAME
GRID
(ATTACHED)
AS
YOU
SOLVE
THEM.
LABEL
YOUR
SKETCH.
PART
1:
1. The
base
of
the
largest
box
is
in
the
form
of
a
square
which
was
drafted
on
a
grid
with
coordinates
at
the
points:
M
(1,9)
A
(7,1)
T
(-1,-5)
H
(-7,3)
Find
the
perimeter
and
area
of
the
base
of
the
box.
Show
all
of
your
work
below.
Perimeter:
____________
Area:
________________
2. The base of the inner box will be created from connecting the midpoints of the sides of the outer box. These midpoints will be labeled L, O, V, E. What is the most specific name that can be given to describe the shape of the base of the inner box? Justify your answer mathematically using two different methods, and explain your response in writing. 3. Find the area of one of the triangles created by the space in between the bases of the inner and outer boxes. Area: ______________________
4. The design department would like to wrap a ribbon around the base of the inner box (with base LOVE). How long would this ribbon be? Length of Ribbon: __________________ 5. The handles of the box will be attached at the coordinates that divide sides MA and TH into segments with lengths in the ratio 1:2. These points will be point F on side MA and B on side TH. Find the coordinates where the handles will be attached. Coordinates: Point F____________ Point B ____________
PART
2:
Halfmark
wants
to
create
a
similar
set
of
nested
boxes,
this
time
with
the
base
of
the
outer
box
in
the
shape
of
a
triangle.
Once
again,
the
base
of
the
inner
box
will
be
created
from
connecting
the
midpoints
of
the
sides
of
the
outer
box.
The
design
department
wants
to
plot
the
base(s)
of
the
box
on
a
grid.
Select
coordinates
for
the
vertices
of
the
outer
box,
and
find
the
coordinates
of
the
vertices
of
the
inner
box.
(NOTE:
The
sides
of
the
either
box
cannot
be
horizontal
or
vertical.)
What
conjectures
can
you
make?
Can
you
support
your
conjectures
with
algebraic
proof?
Explain
your
reasoning.
