Let’s build a simple model that represents different polygons and showcases their perimeter and area formulas.

Materials needed:

  1. Cardboard (for the base and structures)
  2. Color paper (for representing different polygons and formulas)
  3. Scissors
  4. Glue or double-sided tape
  5. Marker pens or sketch pens

Polygons to include in the model:

  1. Square
  2. Rectangle
  3. Triangle
  4. Circle
  5. Parallelogram

Step-by-step instructions:

  1. Base:
    • Cut a large rectangular or square piece of cardboard to serve as the base for the model.
  2. Shapes Representation:
    • Use color paper to create representations of each polygon (square, rectangle, triangle, circle, parallelogram).
    • Cut out shapes from color paper based on their respective dimensions.
  3. Perimeter and Area Formulas:
    • Write the formulas for perimeter and area on separate small rectangles of color paper for each polygon.
    • For example:
      • Square: Perimeter = 4 × side, Area = side × side
      • Rectangle: Perimeter = 2 × (length + width), Area = length × width
      • Triangle: Perimeter = side1 + side2 + side3, Area = (base × height) / 2
      • Circle: Circumference = 2 × π × radius, Area = π × radius^2
      • Parallelogram: Perimeter = 2 × (side1 + side2), Area = base × height
  4. Placement on the Base:
    • Arrange the color paper representations of polygons on the base, leaving enough space for the formulas to be placed next to each polygon.
  5. Labeling and Details:
    • Use marker pens or sketch pens to label each polygon and its corresponding formula for perimeter and area.
  6. Decorating the Model:
    • Use markers or color paper to decorate the model and add more details to make it visually appealing.

Now, you have a perimeter and area formulas working model using cardboard and color paper. This model visually represents different polygons and their respective formulas for perimeter and area
