My guess is that in addition to a mailbox, she'll have a "challenge question" where the area of the two congruent faces will have to be calculated using methods like the ones required for that horribly drawn "find the area" diagram. And the parallelogram sides will not be rectangles, so they'll have to calculate the height. -- Main.GoogleMaster - 13 Jun 2006 --- The Klein bottle does not have a volume or a surface area so you can worry about that question later. -- Main.KtmGuest - 14 Jun 2006 --- <B>ktm guest</B> thank you <font size=+1><font color="#ff0000">thank you<font size=2><font color="#000000"> -- Main.CatherineJohnson - 14 Jun 2006 --- Google is VERY VERY DANGEROUS -- Main.CatherineJohnson - 14 Jun 2006 --- I figured she was going to throw some trapezoids in there, so we had Christopher practice that last night. We were wrong. -- Main.CatherineJohnson - 14 Jun 2006 --- <B>Google Master</B> which diagram are you looking at?? -- Main.CatherineJohnson - 14 Jun 2006 --- This was my neighbor's life last year, <I>for the entire year</I>. She spent NINE MONTHS OF HER LIFE trying to guess what would be on the test that her son had never seen before and didn't know how to do. That's a pretty big set of possibilities when you're talking about a kid in 6th grade. -- Main.CatherineJohnson - 14 Jun 2006 --- Every single test her son took was like this one. Kids were getting grades of 20 and 30. Kids were sobbing over their math books at night. Hence the Parent Uprising. -- Main.CatherineJohnson - 14 Jun 2006 --- <i>Google Master which diagram are you looking at??</i> You know, The Diagram.
