Lines
Lesson Outline
We will identify four forms of the equation of a line. Each has its own uses and applications that fit various given facts. We will also change from one form to another.
Assignment
Know all 4 forms: point-slope, slope-intercept, intercept-intercept, and standard foirm.

Volume of Rectangular Prisms and Cubes
Lesson Outline
Volume of Rectangular Prisms and Cubes:Volume formula and example calculations for Rectangular
Prisms and Cubes. Effect of doubling and tripling the edge lengths of rectangular prisms on the volume increase. Identification and explanation of numerous common units of Volume: Metric and English/IP units. Aden followed clearly today's introductory presentation of the volume formulas for rectangular prisms/cubes and benefited from the several example problems provided. He understands the significance of determining volumes of various 3-D objects as a practical measure of space and capacity.
