MATH Sizing up the Wall of Fame Hall Visit Activity: Inside the VERIZON Great Hall are three series of glass panels holding glass plates with portraits and biographies of each and every Honoured Member of the Hockey Hall of Fame....

H ALL ACTIVITY A=LXW 1. With these dimensions calculate the area of each glass plate. ______________________________ ______________________________ ______________________________ ______________________________

2. Locate the portraits of the 2008 Inductees and calculate the total area of the glass plates. ___________________

Math 1

Perimeter: Distance Around an Object Note: There are two sides to each wall and the Wall of Fame consists of one large structure and two smaller units. 2. A solid glass panel section supports each glass plate. Calculate the

length and width of one glass panel: assuming the plates fit snugly together.______________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________

3. The solid glass panel section is framed by a 10 cm. diameter metal bar

about its perimeter. Calculate the length of metal bar required to fully support all of the glass panels. (Disregard the cross bars and curved end bars) _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________

4. If the cost of the metal bar is $15.00 per metre, what is the total cost

of the bar required? ____________________________________________ 5. As the game continues to be played, there could be new Honoured

Members inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. a) Calculate the total area of all the combined solid glass panels that

can accommodate Honoured Members._________________________ _____________________________________________________________

b) Calculate the area of the space currently occupied by the glass portraits up to and including the 2008 inducted members.

_____________________________________________________________ c) How much area is unoccupied?

_____________________________________________________________ d) If the current average is five new inductees per year, how many

years can the existing glass panels be used? Remember all three units. _______________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________

e) If all the glass panels were filled with an Honoured Member glass plate, and each plate costs $450.00, what is the total cost of all the glass plates used? _______________________________________

GEOMETRY Hall Visit Activity: Geometry plays a crucial role in the game of hockey, but few people notice. There are face-off circles, square box formations used by hockey players to defend against power plays and even shots on goal taken from tough angles. Geometry plays a big role in the architecture of the Hockey Hall of Fame, but again, few people notice. In the VERIZON Great Hall, list the places you can find:

Sizing up the Wall of Fame (Math 1) 1. 1600 cm2 (40 x 40) 2. 5 inductees (1600 x 5) = 8000 cm2 for 2005 Inductees Perimeter: Distance Around an Object (Math 2 ) 1. Length = # of glass plates x size (6 plates x 40cm = 240cm)

Width = # of glass plates x size (3 plates x 40cm = 120cm) Each glass panel is 240cm in length and 120cm in width.

2. Perimeter of bar = length + width + length + width 240 + 120 + 240 + 120 = 720cm 28 glass panels x 720cm = 20,160cm Total amount of bar required: 20,160cm

3. Cost of bar = amount of bar required x cost of bar (per metre) 201.6m x $15.00 = $3,024.00

4a. Area of glass panel (length x width) 2.4m x 1.2m = 2.88m2

Total area (area of glass panel x # of glass panels) x 28 =80.64m2

4b. Area of glass plate (length x width) 0.4 x 0.4 = 0.16m2

Occupied area = (area of glass panel x number of filled glass panels) + (area of glass plate x number of remaining plates)

(2.88 x 19) + (0.16 x 37) = 54.74 + 3.36 = 60.64m2

4c. Unoccupied area = total area --- occupied area 80.64 --- 60.64 = 20.0m2

4d. Area of five glass plates = area of one plate x 5 0.16 x 5 = 0.8m2

Years = unoccupied area ÷ area of five glass plates 20.00 ÷ 0.8 = 25

4e. Total number of glass plates = number of all glass plates on a glass panel x number of glass panels 18 x 28 = 504 Cost of glass plates = total # of glass plates x cost per plate 504 x $450.00 = $226,800.00
