7. WRAP: A Cylinder Workshop, Susan Boone
...r 1999 written in conjunction with TERC and the The Math Forum through BRAP Bridging Research and Practice. Algebra 2: Solving Literal Equations Using Graphs and Spreadsheets to Interpret Data Objective: Students will work with given formulas to solve for specific variables. They will calculate the volume of a cylinder and analyze the change in volume when there is a constant surface area. They will repeat the problem with a constant perimeter. Materials: + 8 1/2 by 11 sheets of paper for the class (transparencies work well for the initial experiment) + larger sheets of paper to make cylinders in other si...
