- Now that you know how to do the problems, I am reassigning this section for HW this weekend. Make sure you get it done as you will have a quiz on this stuff on Tuesday! You might want to form a study group sometime over this long weekend. Go to Barnes and Noble, have a cafe mocha, order a piece of lemon cake, and have fun doing Geometry!
Construction Test
- Please write the following statement on the bottom of the backside:
- "I, _________, do hereby swear that ALL the constructions on this test were performed by me and me alone. If Ms. Chan finds this to be untrue, the consequences of this shall be a zero."
- you and a parent/guardian MUST sign this statement before I will accept your test.
Have a wonderful long weekend!

Alrite.... We need to plan where we are going to go to do our construction test....... Lets give some places and times and dates!!!
hmmm i think either saturday or sunday in like the afternoon would be great. we can maybe go at the starbucks where the pines ice arena is.
anyone other suggestions?
Hee, yup. ^-^
Keenan, Jessica, and I were talking about this during English class. I would really, really prefer Saturday or Sunday. Does anyone know a large, quiet place we can meet? I can probably bring my laptop so we can still post on the blog just in case there are people who can't come.
Barnes and Noble sounds pre-taaay spiffy, actually. Nice tables, good food, and I need to buy a new book. XD Ahahahaa. So, yeah! We should make a list of where we can meet and who'll be there. We should finish that homework too, along with the test.
Hmm. Does anyone have a big house? XD We can all meet there, too. [And we can be fed--for freeee!]
Please contact me if you all decided something. ^-^
AIM Screename: Hikari Xia Neko. [If you can translate this, don't ask. XD I had this since I was like, ten, and I don't wanna change it.]
Ooh, and of course--
MySpace: XD BWAAAH. www.myspace.com/99680950
I'd throw in some phone numbers, but hey. XD This is the internet--I fear staaalk-khaaars! Ah-whiicka-wiicka-what!
Sincerely,
--Mary.
barnes and nobles sounds good mary. i might be free on saturday.
just tell me the day and time =]
hey guys. i was thinking the library would be a good place cause it is BIG and verrrrrrry quiet. but barnes and noble has STARBUCKS. so yea.
thats a good idea nick, but i think most pple wanna go to starbucks just so they can be able to eat and drink lol.
well we have to start planning this.
who ever knows that they are gonna go should post a comment so we can no.
well my aim is-
babyja74 (dont ask, long story)
myspace-
myspace.com/dandoonii
Hmm. Okie dokies. XD
I think we should at least vote on a day; tally them up. So, who prefers tomorrow, Sunday, or Monday? XDDD Monday might be a tad bit too late, though. I think tomorrow would be an ideal time, but I'm not sure if I can catch a ride. My Daddy has a doctor's appointment and I think my Mommy is working. [Carpool...? =D]
We should meet up obviously in the afternoon. Ooh! Although, if we meet at a plaza, we can go have dinner or catch a film afterwards. XD Reelaaaxaaation! Or Barnes and Noble is fine. XD Ahaha. I say some time around one or two? Should we all bring our books?
Sincerely,
--Mary.
i think saturday at 1 or 2 is a pretty good time in barnes and nobles
who thinks they can make it?
if you have any other suggestions feel free to say them.
i can't make it tomorrow at that time. i am going to be working on a project with my friend.
Hmm. How about this?
Why don't we meet on Sunday instead? That way, each one of us can do the construction test and finish the homework [or as much as we individually possibly can] tomorrow. By doing that, we can help each other on the problems we couldn't finish on our own.
Gyaaah. This is too complicated. If not a public place, will someone be willing to offer their home to a bunch of rowdy teenagers? XD Ooh! And we can't forget to review our vocabulary, as well.
Sincerely,
--Mary.
that idea is perfect mary. sunday is good day, im only going to be here in the afternoon though, we can all maybe meet up at 1 or 2, or something like that. and one of us well bring the book.
so if u no u can make it for sure please post a comment, and if u cant make it at that time then maybe we can try to figure out something else i guess.
thanks
-
Dana
i think sunday will be ok. i just have to move somethings around. i think we should still meet at barnes and nobles. cause it is public.....and has food and drinks. goooood drinks at that. yes? no? comments suggestions..
Yes! XD
I just asked my Daddy, and I toe-tay-lay have a ride for Sunday! I'll be at Barnes and Noble around one or one-thirty. If no one's there yet, I'll just be around shopping for some new books. XD Whoever's going for sure, make sure to exchange cell phone numbers so we can inform each other when we get there!
Ooh, and Dana. XD You have a wicked MySpace page. Thank you very much for the add! Ahahaha. XD
Briiing the moolah, people! XD Ahahaha. And, I'll bring my Geometry book and my laptop in case we need it.
Sincerely,
--Mary.

alrightyy then.. seee y'all there. AND i think everyone should bring the text book and your notebook. and constructing tools. and what ever else you may need.
sorry it took me so long to blog. so it is sunday at 1:00 or 1:30 at barnes and nobles ( the one on pines, right?) that is fine w/ me. Oh, and bring back pack w/ text book. ( is back pack one word or two?) :P
Yaaay! XD *Macarena!Dance*
I caaaan't wait to see you guys tomorrow. The construction test isn't so bad at all; I really expected it to be horrendous so I was panicking-going-haywire all week. XD;; Buuut. Yeah. XD I only need to do four more problems. [The only one I think will be an issue for me is number fifteen. ...*eyetwitch* I'm gonna cut it a slice of pizza. (And you probably won't get that unless you're British. XD)]
And we'll need to tackle Section 4.6, too. Because like Ms.Chan said, we'll be having a quiz on Tuesday. *...feels queasy!*
Ahahaha! XD Thank you, Dana. I'm checking my messages right now! I'll send you my digits once I get to it. Ooh! Which reminds me, don't forget to exchange numbers so we can call each other once we get there! [Barnes and Noble's a pretty big place. XD]
Sincerely,
--Mary.
I'll be there at 1:00..... Thanks
umm id theres anyone on..can they help me with number 9 of 4.5. see im catching up yay!! but yeah im a little confused to wat i have to do....wait..hahah i just remembered i have notes. lol wow..well its the morning wat do you expect from me. but yeah i think i'll still want a litle help on it. can someone give me a hint on wat to do?
XD Ahaha. Woo-hoo~. Go Andres!
Let's see. [Dude. It's only eleven in the morning, and you're only a section away! You're wicked-fast. Hoh'snap, crackle, pop!]
Number Nine: Section 4.5--
Okie dokies. It's asking you to "determine the equation in slope-intercept form." The first thing you should do is to find the coordinates of the two points.
You know that (0,2) is one of them. And now determine the other point's coordinates. After you've done that, find the slope of the two points. [Delta Y/ Delta X]
After you find the slope of those two points, you can use point-slope form to find the equation using the slope you found and one of the points. (I recommend using [0,2]. XD)
If you need an example, don't hesitate to ask. ^-^
Sincerely,
--Mary.
can some1 explain the rhombus method and the equidistant method please?
Okie dokies, British. ^-^
The one in section 3.5 shows you how to do the equidistant method. So you can review that from pages 149 to 150. The rhombus method is from our notes Ms. Chan had given us on...dang. I forgot to write the date for this one, but it was for section 3.5. Okie dokies, give me a couple of minutes. I can't explain this without drawing some pictures on paint.
Sincerely,
--Mary.
Ack! I'm sorry this took so long to post, British. The laundry was a'calling. .__.;; And I had trouble uploading my images. >.<;;
The Rhombus Method:
Step One: Draw a line from point P to point Q.

Step Two: Duplicate PQ from P and Q. [Compass Radius setting: Line PQ. Arc from points P and Q.]
http://tinyurl.com/2o688o <--Copy and paste.
Step Three: Duplicate PQ from point R. [Compass Radius setting: Line PQ. Arc from point R to creat point S.]
http://tinyurl.com/39owoc <--Copy and paste.
Step Four: Draw line PS. PS would be your parallel line. ^-^

This comment has been removed by the author.
idk. i want to seee what time others will be there so we get there at the same time.
Ahahaa. XD
Despite a few complications at Barnes and Noble, I think today's meeting went rather spiffy. XD! Gyaah. It was pretty hilarious, too. So I suppose we did have fun doing Geometry. Too bad we couldn't go over section 4.6, though. I'm a bit worried about chapter four. The thought of the quiz makes me queasy. >.<;;
Just wanted to drop by and say--
Haaappy Chinese New Year, guys! XDDD So bring out your dragons and hang up your pig posters of luck, love, wealth, and health. T'is the year of the boooar!
Sincerely,
--Mary.
yea today did have its bumps, but i think it was productive. we should do it again sometime!! and yes mary it was fun!
happy chinese new year to you!
We got a lot done today in our study group, and I was wondering if anyone wants to go to the library tomorrow to go over chapter 4. We have a SPICEY QUIZ on tuesday... maybe we should study together.If this does happen it would have to be towards the evening time, cause my mom works. HAPPY PRESIDENTS DAY
ya thats a good idea keenan, cause as u guys can remember i didnt get much done. i wonder why? lol
but wouldnt the library be closed cause of presidents day?
Yikes. That's so true.
I didn't even remember it was President's Day tomorrow. Do you think they'd be closed...? I was thinking we could meet the same time tomorrow, but Keenan's Mommy's working and my Mommy and Daddy are probably going to be late, too. Hmm.
Well, if we can't meet at a public place, we could go over someone's house. I really want to go over section 4.6--and everything in chapter four. X__x;
If all else fails, we can always call each other and three-way. XD Er. Or...one, two, three, four, five, six, seven-way! XD
Sincerely,
--Mary.
someone should look the library up and call and see if they are opened tomorrow. volunteers?? if no one will, ill do it. and i probably can't go until later too. my parents are working tomorrow too.
Okie dokies. XD I called like two minutes ago. [Some really sleepy guy answered the phone, the poor thing...XD]
So, Jessica, Dana, Keenan, Nick, Andres, and Peuandro! The Southwest Regional Library is open for today. ...Hmm. I wasn't smart enough to ask when it would close, though. Strike one for today...? XD;; Ahahaha.
If we're meeting, I might be there around three, three-thirty, or four depending on when my Mommy comes home. Or I can just walk there if you guys plan on leaving a bit earlier. XD
Please tell me whether or not you guys are going. I would call you all, but considering it's nine, nearly ten in the morning on the weekend, I'm not sure who and who's awake. XD Talk to y'all later!
Sincerely,
--Mary.
Gyaaaah! *runs in a circle!*
I can't find it. I caaan't find it. >.<;; I don't know if it fell from my binder yesterday, but if someone could please, pleaaaase, pleaaaaase type out the notes from Friday for me, I will worship the ground you walk on! [Well. Not quite. Maybe for about a total of two seconds just so I don't have people staring at me...XD;;.]
But seriously. I'd appreciate your help mega-wickedly-incredibly so, so, sooo much. Pleaaaase. Pleasepleaseplease. I know it's gonna be a waste of time typing a text titan block. I'm so sorry for hassling you guys. ...*clings to your ankles!* Please, please, pleaspleaseplease. ;_;
Sincerely Suffering a Mental Kay-Oh!,
--Mary.
already a strike against you mary??? lol i can't go untill later...(like 6 or 6:30) cause my mom doesn't get home until then. and i think the library closes at 8 or 9. or maybe a little later. i don't really know.
ok my mom says she needs to no now if you guys r going for sure to the library and what time exactly.
is the library that ur talking about near charter high school?
o and mary, i looked over my notes on friday and they're all jumbled up and they're like written on different piece of papers. i was writing so fast to try to catch up with ms chan, which obviously didnt work, cause i dont even understand what i wrote. so im really sorry. its like something you cant really type on the computer.
does it matter if we write the little "I, _________, do hereby swear that ALL the constructions on"....thingy, is in pen or pencil??
I got times for the library.
Southwest Regional closes at 9
Walter C. Young closes at 8.
I say we go to the Southwest Regoinal one from 5 to 7:30
PS. Nick I would do it Just in case
Change of plans. Lets make it 6 to 8 cause of parents gotta get off work. I coludnt reach Pedro Jessica, or Dana so.... Call me... 665-5427... I didnt want to put my area code cause like mary, I am afraid of STALKERS LIKE NICK!
XDD! Ahahaha!
Thanks for the call, Keenan. I can try calling Dana, Peuandro, and Jessica in a few after I wash the dishes. If all else fails, we can spam-text them. >:D Bwahahaaahaa! *cackles!* ...Bwaah. Then again, I don't want to waste thirty cents on you people. -.-; [Kidding! Just kidding. XD I'd waste thirty cents on the three of you aaany day! Except for tomorrow. And the day after that. ...And on Thursdays.]
Bwaaah. e.e;; Ooh, well. Thank you anyway, Dana. If anyone else can scan me a copy, I'll give you five bucks! [Five bucks meaning I take a piece of notebook paper, a green colored pencil, and doodling a rectangle with a five in the center.]
I'll see you guys later at six. XD
Sincerely,
--Mary.
Hey everyone! I would have done the construction test with you yesterday, but I was really out of it, having gotten 8 staples put in my head the night before... At my color guard competition my friend's sabre left a nice long gash just behind my hairline... Thank goodness it wasn't my eye or anything, though. Anyways, I'm ok, but could anyone please explain how I should do #12? Thanks so much!
Mary, I would let you use my notes for 4.6, but I have no idea how to use my scanner!!!
Hey, Sara. ^-^
Gyaaah. .__.; Yikes. Dude, those sabres sound daaange-eeer-ous. It's okie dokies, Sara. ^-^ We know that--
--Woah! Woah. Woah. Waitaminute! I got that "eight staples" comment just now! Hoh'snap, crackle, pop--Sara! Are you alright?! X___x;; Duuuude. That's so not cool. You are one little soldier. >.<;; *salutes!* You go, buddy!
Are you talking about number twelve on the construction test or on section 4.6? Ooh, it's alright, Sara. I'll just swipe it from the gang at the library with my ninja skills! XD Ah-whiicka-wiicka-what!
Sincerely,
--Mary.
I meant number 12 on the construction test. And where in the library are you guys meeting? I might swing by there for a while.
Ooh! Okie dokies, Sara. ^-^
For the construction test. Hmm. Number twelve, I highly suggest you construct an equilateral triangle. You know, a triangle has one eighty degrees, so each of the equilateral triangle's angles would be sixty degrees.
Bisect one of them and you'd get thirty. ^-^ And we were upstairs at Southwest Regional yesterday.
Sincerely,
--Mary.
Thanks Mary! And wait... you were there yesterday? But I thought that you were going to the library today...? *Tear* Oh well. I appriciate the help! Thankies!
Ack! No, no! Sara, we're going again today! So be there. XD Beeee there. We need as much help as we can get for section 4.6. Hee. And you're welcome. ^-^ I hope that gash clears up soon. >.<;; Who know Colorguard could be so leeethaaal! [Well, one of these days, someone's bound to get knocked out by a rifle. ...If it hasn't happened yet. >.>;; Hoh'snap. Hope I'm not jinxing anything. XD]
See you there!
Sincerely,
--Mary.
what time r u guys going to be there?
and is that the library thats near charter high?
Oh, ok. I got confused. Are you sure that the library is open today? If it is, I'll try to be there. But should someone double check the times? And Dana, I think they're going to be there from 6-8.
I called the libeary people and they said its open reguar times. We will be ther for 6 to around 8
ok thanks. ill be there at about 6 - 6:30
