Exit Slip: 11.4

today in class we found our longest diameter measurements and my shortest height measurement. we helped each other by setting up the ruler the correct way, some of us helped each other with the calculations. for example Sharon help me with my calculations. I was able to accomplish all my work I got all my calculations that was needed.

The skills i learned today is how to measure the diameter and height of my can using a ruler(cm) and the results was labeled as cubic center meters . I will use these skills outside of school because my cousin has a project similar to this and she needs help. one thing i still have a question is why can't we put pi in the calculator.

  1. π (spelled 'pi' not 'pie') is to be left alone for now because 1) it's more accurate to leave the expressions in terms of pi, and 2) I want you to be able to explain how to "leave" expressions in terms of pi.
