First Spikey Door Project Deadline

The first project deadline looms close (Tuesday, June 13th), so I wanted to clarify what I am looking for.  You need to show me your scaled drawing (the 3D version and the net).  You don't need your surface area or volume calculations yet.  However, you will want to make sure your surface area and volume fall within the specified parameters .  Though you should be able to calculate the surface area of your spike, you can use the following links to help you calculate the volume of your solid.

• Pyramid Calculator
• Cone Calculator

Below, you can see an example of some sample work.  This work is fairly neat and well organized.  They have drawn the net and shown the calculations for surface area broken down into lateral surface area (LSA), base area, and then total surface area (TSA).  Make sure to leave room for your volume calculations and .  You can also see the scaled 3-D drawing using perspective and labels.  

Remember, you may not use these measurements for your own spike!

Don't forget to print off a copy of the rubric to submit with your project!  Grab it here!
