Framing The Session
We will continue our exploration of measurement.
Why, when, and how do we find perimeter?

Guided Practice SKETCHPAD EXERCISE
Draw 3 points that are not collinear.
Use the pointer tool to select the points.
From the Construct menu, select “draw an arc through 3 points”.
Use the line tool to draw lines to complete the figure.
Use the pointer to adjust the shape of the figure.
Highlight the lines and use the Measure menu to measure the length of each line.

Inscribed Shapes
Inscribe a shape in the circle. What is the relationship between the perimeter of the shape and the circumference of the circle?

Circumference
Download “To A Circle.gsp”
Notice that as we add more sides to our inscribed shape, the closer it approaches a circle, and the closer the perimeter of the inscribed shape approaches the circumference of the circle.

Work Time
Work in small groups to use Geometer’s Sketchpad to calculate the perimeter of various polygons. What happens when we add more sides to the inscribed shape?
Discuss and display your work from the session.
