  1. Grade 8 Changing Dimensions CONFIDENTIAL

  2. Building a Bigger Box: • Doubling the Volume of a Rectangular Prism. 6 3 2 4 1 2 1-2-3 box 2-4-6 box Volume = 1 x 2 x 3 = 6 units3 Volume = 2 x 4 x 6 = 48 units3 Volume has increased 8 times by doubling the dimensions! CONFIDENTIAL

  3. Building a Bigger Box: • Doubling the Volume of a Rectangular Prism. • We need boxes with volume = 12 units3 3 6 2 2 1 1 1-2-3 box 1-2-6 box Volume = 1 x 2 x 3 = 6 units3 Volume = 1 x 2 x 6 = 12 units3 CONFIDENTIAL Volume has doubled!

  4. Scaling Up the Compost Box: • Applying Scale Factors to Rectangular Prisms • The scale factor is the number that each dimension of one rectangular prism must be multiplied by to get the dimensions of a similar prism. The scale factor from the 1-2-3 box to the 2-4-6 box is 2 because each edge length of the 1-2-3 box must be multiplied by 2 to get the corresponding edge length of the 2-4-6 box. Remember: compost boxes are open on top! CONFIDENTIAL

  5. Scaling Up the Compost Box: • Applying Scale Factors to Rectangular Prisms • What is the relationship between the corresponding dimensions of the two boxes? • The larger box’s dimensions are twice those of the smaller box. • What is the relationship between the surface areas of the two boxes? (The surface area of the larger box is 4 times that of the smaller box.) • What is the relationship between the volumes of the two boxes? (The volume of the larger box is 8 times the volume of the smaller box.) • What is the scale factor from the 1-2-3 to the 2-4-6 box? (The scale factor is 2.) • So, are these two boxes similar? (These two boxes are similar because each dimension is multiplied by the same factor: 2.) CONFIDENTIAL

  6. Building Model Ships: • Similarity and Scale Factors • Builders and architects often make models of cars, ships, buildings, and parks. A model is useful in determining several aspects of the building process, including structural strength, expense, and appearance. CONFIDENTIAL

  7. Building Model Ships: • Example: • Natasha builds a model ship from a kit. She tries to picture what the actual ship looks like. The scale factor from the model to the actual ship is 200. • If the length of the model is 25 centimeters, what is the length of the actual ship? • 25 x 200 = 5,000 centimeters or 50 meters CONFIDENTIAL

  8. Let us do some practice problems!

  9. 1) A closed rectangular box has a height of 2 feet, a length of 4 feet, and a width of 4 feet. What is the volume of the box? • 32 ft3 • 38 ft3 • 36 ft3 • None of the above. a) 32 ft3 CONFIDENTIAL

  10. 2) What happens to the volume of a rectangular box if its dimensions are doubled? • The volume will be 4 times as great • The volume will be 6 times as great • The volume will be 8 times as great • The volume will be 10 times as great c) The volume will be 8 times as great. CONFIDENTIAL

  11. 3) What are the dimensions of a box that is similar to a 1-2-3 box but has a volume of 10,368 cubic feet? What is the scale factor from the 1-2-3 box to the new box? • 14 • 12 • 16 • None of the above. b) scale factor is 12. (The scale factor is 10,368 ÷ 6 = 1,728.We need to find a number whose cube is 1,728.We know that 103 is 1,000, so it must be greater than 10 but not much. 113 is 1,331, and 123 is 1,728, so the scale factor is 12.The new box’s dimensions are 12 feet by 24 feet by 36 feet.) CONFIDENTIAL

  12. 4) Sandra wants to build a compostbox that will decompose 8 times garbage than the amount of the 1-2-3 box. What are the dimensions of the new box? • 6-4-6 • 2-2-6 • 8-4-2 • 2-4-6 d) 2-4-6 CONFIDENTIAL

  14. 6) What are the dimensions of a box similar to a 1-2-3 box if the scale factor is 9? • 10-25-36 • 10-9-15 • 10-18-24 • 9-18-27 d) 9-18-27 CONFIDENTIAL

  15. 7) What is the surface area of a compost box similar to a 1-2-3 box if the scale factor is 9? • 1,382 square unit • 1,296 square unit • 1,282 square unit • 1,482 square unit b) 1,296 square unit The surface area is 16 x 81 = 1,296 square feet, as the surface area of a 1-2-3 box is 16 and the scale factor is 9 CONFIDENTIAL

  16. 8) What is the volume of a compost box similar to a 1-2-3 box if the scale factor is 9? • 4,354 cubic units • 4,074 cubic units • 4,370 cubic units • 4,374 cubic units d) 4,374 cubic units. (the volume is 6 x 729 = 4,374 cubic feet. As the volume of a 1-2-3 box is 6 and the scale factor is 729) CONFIDENTIAL

  17. 9) What are the dimensions of a compost box that is similar to a 1-2-3 box but has a surface area of 1600 square feet? • 10-25-35 • 20-20-36 • 10-20-30 • 10-50-40 c) 10-20-30 (The surface area of a 1-2-3 box is 16 square feet, so the scale factor from the small box to the large box is 10.This means that the new box’s dimensions are 10 feet by 20 feet by 30 feet.)
