Geometry City Design Project
Due Date: _____________________ You are a city planner and are assigned to design your own city. Create your city on a piece of graph paper.
Your city must include:
¨ At least three parallel streets ¨ At least two transversal streets, one of which is perpendicular to the parallel lines ¨ Streets do not have be across the entire page
You must include the following buildings and locate them as stated:
¨ A gas station and a restaurant placed at alternate exterior angles ¨ Your house and a school placed at same-‐side interior angles ¨ A courthouse and a bank placed at vertical angles ¨ A general store and a police station placed at corresponding angles ¨ A library and a park at placed alternate interior angles
The buildings below must have the specified shapes (mark congruent sides and angles appropriately):
¨ Your gas station must be drawn as an obtuse scalene triangle ¨ Your police station must be drawn as a regular pentagon ¨ Your courthouse must be drawn as a right isosceles triangle ¨ Your library must be a concave hexagon
In addition:
¨ Your city must be titled with a name and population ¨ All streets and buildings must be clearly labeled with appropriate names ¨ Write the equation of your street lines (one equation per street) on each street ¨ You city must be neat and be colored ¨ On a separate sheet of paper, write a paragraph that summarizes the angle measure relationships
between pairs of corresponding angles, same-‐side interior angles, alternate interior angles, alternate exterior angles, and same-‐side exterior angles created when parallel lines are cut by a transversal. For example, you know that corresponding angles are congruent when parallel lines are cut by a transversal. Use correct spelling and grammar.

Shapes: (3 pts each, sides/angles marked as congruent when appropriate) ___ Your gas station must be drawn as an obtuse scalene triangle
___ Your police station must be drawn as a regular pentagon
___ Your courthouse must be drawn as a right isosceles triangle
___ Your library must be a concave hexagon
Other:
