Presentation transcript:

Objective Make scale models of the Pyramids at Giza Display them as a 3D poster along with any calculations used in the process This should be decorated with relevant pictures and diagrams

229.8 metres

706 feet

201 cubits

What is a Cubit? This derivation of the Vitruvian Man by Leonardo da Vinci, depicts nine historical units of measurement: the Yard, the Span, the Cubit, the Flemish Ell, the English Ell, the French Ell, the Fathom, the Hand, the Foot.

What is a Cubit? The Vitruvian man was drawn to scale, so the units depicted are displayed with their proper historical ratios.

This distance tends to be about 18 inches or roughly 45 centimetres. Definition of Cubit The Cubit is a historic unit of distance frequently mentioned in the Bible. The word comes from the Latin cubitum, "elbow," because the unit represents the length of a man's forearm from his elbow to the tip of his outstretched middle finger. This distance tends to be about 18 inches or roughly 45 centimetres.

What will the net look like? D C A B

What lengths do we know? D C A B

229.8 metres

What other lengths would we need to make the net easy to draw? C 229.8m A B

Think back to last lesson …

What is this length called? 229.8m A B

In your pairs … Can you find this length?

186.6m 147m D C 229.8m A B Now work it out…

Use this information to draw your net to scale. Let 1square = 1 0m
