SKILLS AND APPLICATION TASK: GEOMETRY

Through this project you will develop your understanding of ratio and scale and ways ratio and scale are used in practical applications. You will progressively develop proficiency in applying mathematical skills and techniques to find solutions to a range of ratio and scale problems.

This assignment has three sections, each divided into two subsections:

  • Section 1: RATIOS
  • Section 2: RATIOS & PHOTOGRAPHY
  • Section 3: SCALE
  • Section 4: CREATIVE USE OF SCALE IN THE VISUAL ARTS

As you work through problems you need to provide clear evidence of all calculations.
