Project 11 : Co ordinate Geometry

 


🗺️ Treasure Hunt on the Grid

🎯 Objective:
To apply your understanding of coordinate geometry by designing a treasure map using the Cartesian plane.

📍 What You Have to Do:

1. Draw a neat coordinate grid on graph paper (include both x- and y-axes).
2. Mark and label at least 5 landmarks (e.g., tree, cave, house, river, mountain) using coordinates.
3. Choose a secret location for your treasure—don’t label it directly!
4. Write 5–7 clues using coordinate geometry concepts like:
   - Moving east/west/north/south from a point
   - Midpoint between two landmarks
   - Equal distances from two points
   - Use of the distance formula (optional)
5. Create a solution page at the end explaining how each clue leads to the treasure.
6. Decorate your map creatively to make it look like a real treasure hunt.

📝 Submission Guidelines:

- Use one A4 graph sheet for the grid and clues.
- Use one A4 ruled sheet for the solution.
- Submit in a clear folder with your name and class on the front.

Project 3 : Triangulation and Interior angles of a Polygon

  Exploring Interior Angles of Polygons Class : VIII Objective: To discover the sum of interior angles of polygons without using direct formulae. To explore and apply different triangulation techniques on various polygons. To connect geometry with real-world structures and patterns. Materials Required: Colored paper Scissors Glue Pre-printed polygon templates Project Guidelines: 1. Polygon Selection: Choose a minimum of 4 regular and 4 irregular polygons. Include both convex and concave types. Each polygon must have a unique number of sides . 2. Triangulation: Use two triangulation techniques to divide each polygon into triangles: Fixed Vertex Method : All triangles originate from a single chosen vertex. Piece-wise Method : Triangles are formed by connecting non-adjacent vertices across the polygon. Use both methods at least once among your polygons....

Project 17 : Fibonacci Sequence

  Project 17 – Fibonacci Sequence The Golden Thread: Exploring Fibonacci Across Subjects The Golden Thread: Exploring Fibonacci Across Subjects Objective: To explore the fascinating Fibonacci sequence — its patterns in mathematics, appearances in nature, historical background, and exciting connections with other subjects like art, music, literature, and more! 🔢 Part A: Mathematical Core (20 marks) 1. Understanding the Sequence (5 marks): Write the first 20 terms of the Fibonacci sequence. Describe the pattern in your own words. Make a colorful number chain or chart to show how it grows. 2. Fibonacci Word Problems (5 marks): Solve 3 word problems based on the sequence. Examples: A pair of rabbits gives birth every month starting from the second month. How many pairs will there be after 6 months? A staircase has steps arranged in a Fibonacci pattern. How many steps will be in the 7th row? ( You may create your o...
