A message from Patrick- 13th May 2020
Good day all,
Thank you for having a go at the triangle problems yesterday! The answer (which Yi Sheng managed to get) is below:
There were 18!
I am posting a simpler one today so if you want to figure it out yourself then don’t look in the comments!
How many triangles can you see?
I would also like you to post some interesting facts about the seven continents of the world! What are they? Which is biggest? What interesting features makes each one unique? Post you facts below!
Finally, there has been a dip in participation with the MyMaths this week- I know it it early but by now we normally have a lot more completed tasks so please go and have a look at the activity. I look forward to the comments about the work and if you have anything that you want to ask then please also feel free to comment.
Take care,
Patrick

Not all people in Australia are christians.
-
That’s a good point. Although the majority of the population are Christian, not everyone is. Like every country or continent there is a certain amount of diversity.
Can you tell me what diversity means?
-
Does it mean the state of being diverse?
-
And diverse means showing a great deal of variety;very different.
-
Yes. Good job Sophia

I’m struggling so much to do my Mymaths Homework I can’t even fill in the whole task on page 1.

If you are not confident with it then use a method of your choosing. Long multiplication should be alright

P1)The seven continents of the world are:
1)Europe
2)Asia
3)North America
4)South America
5)Australasia (Oceania)
6)Africa
7)AntarcticaP2)The biggest continent of the world is Asia and it is 44,391,162 square kilometres.
P3(1))The richest continent is Europe but that doesn’t mean that all countries there are super rich,especially in the east.
2)The poorest continent is Africa because many of the poorest countries are there.However,that doesn’t include Zimbabwe.
3)Believe it or not,Antarctica is the smartest continent.They are proven to have the highest average IQ (Intelligence Quotient) of any continent.
4)Surprisingly,even if Africa is the poorest continent in the world,it is also the most beautiful because of its cities,natural wonders and wonderful wildlife.
Those were my facts.I hope you liked them.-
I very much did Sophia- you’ve gone above and beyond and I’m very pleased! That Antarctica fact is fascinating as well.

Thanks!☺😊

Oh,by the way,I don’t know where to use long multiplication to solve it.Its very complicated and it isn’t as easy as it is at school.I’m starting to feel stressed.
-
If you can use a piece of paper then that should do the trick. Give it a go and if it ends up being too stressful then please don’t worry Sophia. I know that you have given it a good go!

Thanks!😊😊😊
ohh now I get it
