Location: Football Field
Description: The pylons in the end zone to this footballfield represent a coplanar. A coplanar is 3 or morepoints or 2 or more lines that lie within the same plane.There are an infinite number of points or lines that arecoplanar to each other.
Name:Assini
Location: Lowes
Description: The back side of the Lowe's sign inLatham represents a scalene triangle. A scalene
triangle is a triangle whose three sides are differentlengths. No matter what kind of triangle, its interiorangles add up to 180 degrees.
Reflection:This project was difficult, but also fun at thesame time. It was difficult for me to find the items in thefield, but it was also a fun challenge to try and findthem. I learned that geometry is all around us, justwaiting to be found.

Name:DeLutri
Location:My Kitchen
Description: For a Hexagon, I chose one of the cupsfrom my cabinet. On the bottom it is in the shape of ahexagon. I then edited the photo to make it more clear
that it was a hexagon and submitted it as part of myproject.
Reflection:I learned that even everyday objects can begeometry shapes. I felt that this project really helpedme remember geometric terms such as Hexagons,Collinear Points, and Obtuse Angles (the terms that Ichose).
Bonus
Location:My Basement
Description: For my bonus on the project, Ifelt it was the easiest since it was my optionto choose my own geometric term. I thenchose the obtuse angle because of theshape of my guitar. Next I edited to photo Itook of my guitar to make it more clear that itwas an obtuse angle and submitted it as mybonus to the project.

Location:Livingroom table
Description:This brown coffee table has shelfs thatcross through the main support, which illustratesintersecting planes. Intersecting planes are when twoplanes meet in a single line. An interseting fact is thattwo planes always intersect in a line as long as theyare not parallel.
Name: Dott
Location In my bedroom
Description: This Steelers license plate is an example
of a rectangle. As you can see, this is a parallelogramwith four right angles. An interesting fact about therectangle is that opposite sides are always parallel.
Reflection:One of the main things that I have learned isthat almost everything has a shape which we dontalways notice. The coffee table in my house is anexample of intersecting planes which I never noticedbefore. Since doing this project, hopefully i will takemore notice of the shapes that I see everyday.
Bonus
Location: my bedroom

Location:living room
Description: The tubelight from my living roomrepresents a straight angle. Straight angle is an anglewith a measure equal to 180 degrees. Peoplesometimes say, "You did a complete 180 on that! Whatthey mean is that you changed your mind, or ideacompletely.
Name: Duci
Location:My friend's home
Description: One of my friend's fans represents anangle bisector. An angle bisector is A ray that divides
an angle into two equal parts. If a point lies on thebisector of an angle, then it is equally distant from thesides of the angle.
Reflection:I learned a lot from this project. I nevernoticed how many angles and lines are in my life.Without lines and angles, most things would'nt look thesame. This project was very fun and creative. I hope todo more projects like this, this year in geometry class.
Bonus
Location: brother's room
Description: This is my brother's tv cabinet doorwhich represents an acute angle. Acute angle isan angle less than 90 degrees but more than 0degrees. When we look at the letter V, we see anacute angle.

Location:
Description:The outline of the roof of my houserepresents a trapezoid. A trapezoid is a quadrilateralwith exactly one pair of parallel sides, called bases.The non-parallel sides are legs. Fact: The parallelsides of the trapezoid are called bases and the non-parallel sides are call legs. But in an isosceles trianglethe legs are of equal length.
Reflection:This project has shown me that geometryplays a very important part in our everyday lives. Thereis geometry all around us!
Location:Parking lot of Clifton Country Mall
Description: The outline of the yield sign is an exampleof an equilateral triangle. An equilateral triangle is atriangle with three equal sides. Fact: Because it alsohas the property that all three interior angles are equal,it really the same figure as an equiangular triangle.

Description: A Ray is a part of a line consisting of anendpoint and the set of points on the other side of theline. It is named by the end point then another point onthe line. These flowers were an example of a raybecause they start with a point and gradually move up tomeet another point. This line would be called line A B.
Name: Lawton
Location:I actually just thought it was funny when wewent on a trip and then i realized i could use it!
Description: A linier pair is when the exterior side of an
adjacent lie on opposite rays. These always add up to180 and are supplementary. I used the harryman signbecause the ground is at a 180 degree angle and thesign breaks it into to halves,making it a linear pair.
Reflection:I realized that math really is everywhere inmy life and I'm happy that i can finally recognize it. Isee things in a different way and I can recognize howthings work now.
