Pathways and Rules Name ______________________
George and his family are laying a path through their garden using colored
paving stones. They would like the pathway to be three stones wide and for the
stones to alternate gray and white. Here is an example of what they are planning.
They created a function table with the length of the path as input. There are two
outputs, one for the number of gray stones and one for the number of white stones.
George has figured out the first few examples. He also noticed that there are 2 rules
for each outcome: one rule if the input number is even, and another rule if the input
number is odd. Find the rule for each output column when the input is an odd number.
Then find the output for a path that is 100 stones long.

with Formulas
Julie’s older sister is working a geometry homework problem. She is finding the
area of a trapezoid.
Base 1 (b1)
Height (h)
Base 2 (b 2)
Her sister explains that the formula for finding the area of the trapezoid is
A = × (b1 + b 2) × h
This formula means that you first add the lengths of the two bases (since they are in parentheses)
and then multiply that sum by . Then you multiply the result by the height. This gives you the
area of the trapezoid.
Use this formula and follow the order of operations to complete the table below for the area of
three different trapezoids.

The Angles Around Us Name ______________________
Look around you and find examples of angles listed in the chart below. Think
about the angle where two walls meet, or the edges of your desk, or the angle
between the wall and the floor, etc. Write a description of each given angle, and
then sketch it.
30°
45°
60°
90°
120°
135°
150°
The figure below is a model, and you need to create a copy of it that is twice as large. In order
to do this, start out by labeling each side a different letter of alphabet. Then measure the
length of each side. Double each length and draw a straight line on another piece of paper that
is the doubled length and label it with the corresponding letter. Continue doing this until all
sides have been measured and a new line twice as long has been drawn and labeled.
Now cut out each line segment with scissors and lay them out roughly in the same pattern as
they were below. The last step is to measure each angle in the original figure and arrange the
new lines with the same angle measurement. After you have completed this, tape your new
figure down so it won’t shift anymore.
