For this activity, you will be working in groups of 3 on building a piece of architecture using a variety of mathematics skills. You will be given a budget, which must have a record kept to chart and graph costs during the project. You must also be precise in the measurements of your architecture, the length, width, and height of the architecture in both US standard and metric forms.
At the conclusion of the activity, your team will be responsible for comparing the different structures and identifying polygons, both regular and irregular within them.
