11.4 Exit Slip 4.27.10

The most important concept of Tuesday's lesson was being able to find the height using the given radius and Volume. The mathematical tools I used were both a calculator and the computer. The calculator to plug in the expression to get the height of my can. the computer to go on google docs; create a new spread sheet and graph the answers I got for the heights. The graph had to be titled Radius v.s Height. these two tools helped me very much because I wouldn't have to do all the problems hand written because it would've taken too much time. This made my job easier by keeping me more calm and not under pressure because I wasn't going to have to do every problem manually to get the heights.

  1. Not only your calculated the height, but you kept the volume constant while changing the radius to see how the height would change.
