Geometry

Description

This example presents a quadrilateral with all right angles, labeled as A, B, C, and D. The opposite sides are parallel and congruent. Based on these characteristics, the shape is classified as a rectangle. All interior angles are 90 degrees, and the opposite sides are both parallel and congruent, which are defining properties of a rectangle.

This is the transcript for the video of same title. Video contents: In this program we explore the properties of polygons. We do this in the context of two real-world applications. In the first, we look at Islamic tile patterns as examples of regular polygons. We explore how such intricate patterns were created using a compass and straight edge. In the second application we look at composite figures, specifically in the context of the design of the Petronas Towers in Indonesia.

This is the transcript for the video of same title. Video contents: The Pentagon is one of the most famous polygon-shaped buildings in the world. But why was this shape chosen over a more straightforward quadrilateral shape? We briefly explore the properties of pentagons and use this as a way of introducing the key concepts throughout the program.
