Geometry Standard 16.0 Students perform basic constructions with a straightedge and compass, such as angle bisectors, perpendicular bisectors, and the line parallel to a given line through a point off the line.

1) Follow the directions on "Inscribing Regular Polygons" & create each of the 4 polygons on at least one half sheet of printer paper.

2) Create a design based on one of these inscribed regular polygons using at least 4 different colors on a full sheet of printer paper. Erase all "construction" marks so that the final product is ORIGINAL, NEAT, ACCURATE, COLORFUL, FILLS 75% OF THE SHEET and is INTERESTING.

Some suggestions:

• Look at the designs presented in Chapter 0 of our book
• Do an Internet search for "geometry art" or "polygon art"
• Look at the samples on these web pages... geometry art
