Explaining Geometry

Description

For this Discussion, you will write the detailed steps for your own two-part word problem based on geometric concepts. You will need to explain the geometric situation/problem that needs to be solved, provide the numbers related to the geometric situation, and provide a full solution and explanation for the problem. You will need to:
Describe what shapes you need to measure. Describe each measurement that needs to be determined and what those measurements are.
Make your calculations and provide the solution.
Think carefully about the final answer you provide. What errors are common to these types of problems?
By Day 3

Post a 2- to 3-paragraph response that:

Outlines the specific steps that are needed to perform a task based on a geometric problem and provides the solution
Describes each measurement that needs to be determined and what those measurements are
