Activity 2: Designing
When a book is made, a designer or artist may change the size
of an original sketch to fi t the space available on a page. One
way to change the dimensions of a sketch is to use graph paper
with diff erent size squares.

Answer 1

Draw a fi gure or design on a sheet of graph paper. Label this
Figure 1 and record its approximate dimensions.
• Enlarge the original fi gure by copying each portion of Figure 1,
square by square, onto larger squares. Label this Figure 2 and record its dimensions.
• Use a ratio to compare the dimensions of Figure 1 to the dimensions of Figure 2. If the
same ratio is used to enlarge Figure 2, what would the dimensions of the new fi gure be?
Draw this fi gure, label it Figure 3, and record its dimensions.
• Explain why the lengths of the three fi gures form a geometric sequence.
• Write a geometric sequence corresponding to these lengths, and a recursive or explicit
formula for that sequence

Answer 3

Did you draw the picture yet?

Answer 4

no

Answer 5

i tried but it doesn't look right

Answer 6

I made my squares 1.5 times bigger, teachers love when you make it harder for yourself.

Answer 7

mm i see

Answer 8

Draw something on the lines, it will make it easier to copy
