Unit 8 Word Problems with Geometry and MeasurementMarch 31- April 25, 3 Weeks

Question 1

Standards Addressed: Measurement and Data 3.MD.8

Target Assessment: solve real world and mathematical problems involving perimeters of polygons

Farmer Bob’s cows keep getting out of the pasture and eating Daisy’s garden. Farmer Bob has decided that he needs to put up a fence. Help Farmer Bob design a fence with equal sides that will keep 10 cows in his pasture and out of Daisy’s garden. What is the perimeter of his fence?Now that you have created a fence for the cows, make sure they have enough space within the fence by finding the area.

Question 2

Farmer Bob bought 15 more cows. He bought enough fencing to make a perimeter of 86 yards. What is the length of each side?

What is the area of the enclosure?

Question 3

Farmer Bob was putting up the fence and ran into a pond in the corner of his pasture. He will need to put the pond outside of his

fence. Now what will the length of each side be? Will that change the area?
