Students learn about the relationship between the length, area and volume scale factors of similar shapes.  As learning progresses they apply these relationships to calculate missing dimensions for a range of 2D and 3D shapes.

Differentiated Learning Objectives

• All students should be able to use the length and volume scale factors in similar 3D shapes.
• Most students should be able to use the length, area and volume scale factors in any similar 2D or 3D shape.
• Some students should be able to use the length, area and volume scale factors in any similar 2D or 3D shape with algebraic dimensions.
