1. Geometry Bellwork: Think about: How many squares? 14

2. Geometry Bellwork: Think about: How many rectangles? 12

3. Challenge: Connect the 9 dots Use only 4 lines Do not lift your marker Do not trace over a line already drawn

4. F(-6, 8), I(4, 6), S(6, -4), and H(-4, -2) Test for the characteristics of a rhombus. – If it is a rhombus, its sides are congruent. – Check the lengths of the sides using the distance formula – All 4 sides ARE the same length. FISH is a rhombus. It could be a square. Check to see if it is a rectangle (a square is also a rectangle) – If it is a rectangle, it has 4 right angles. That means the slopes of the sides should be negative reciprocals. – The slopes of the sides are NOT negative reciprocals. – Therefore FISH is NOT a rectangle and, hence, not a square. Bottom line (literally): the shape is a rhombus.
