BM Reflection:

1) This project relates to the real world because if you want to become an architect and remodel building or fix it up buildings or certain areas in a place you'll need to know the area and perimeter of the building knowing how much space it takes up to that. But nobody has actual time to measure the building by hand. You can just use one of the methods we used. Also if you want to rebuild your home or make some changes and make it look better (like change the windows or doors..etc.) you need to know the perimeter and area of those objects.
2) The most exciting part of this project was actually letting people see my building through my eyes. Which was when I got the chance to draw and color out my building on poster paper. Another exciting part was when our group was given the chance to go outside and measure what we needed for the project and take pictures of our building with us standing next to it. The least exciting part of this project was doing the math and calculating the height, area, and perimeter of my building. I also did really enjoy having to worry about printing and putting the paper together and making sure my group members we on track. it took too much of my time having to go back when I got the wrong calculation and worrying about my group members.
3) From completing this project I learned that there always alternatives in measuring buildings, if you make one mistake in math it can mess up everything so make sure everything is done accurately, and that math includes a lot of time and patience. I also learned a lot about how to use the mirror method and the picture method and I got a full good understand about it and why it's used.
