Module 5

This course is a part of 6th grade (Eureka Math/EngageNY), a 6-course Topic series from Khan Academy.

"Module 5 is an opportunity to practice the material learned in Module 4 in the context of geometry; students apply their newly acquired capabilities with expressions and equations to solve for unknowns in area, surface area, and volume problems. They find the area of triangles and other two-dimensional figures and use the formulas to find the volumes of right rectangular prisms with fractional edge lengths. Students use negative numbers in coordinates as they draw lines and polygons in the coordinate plane. They also find the lengths of sides of figures, joining points with the same first coordinate or the same second coordinate and apply these techniques to solve real-world and mathematical problems."

This course contains 4 segments:

Topic A: Area of triangles, quadrilaterals, and polygons

Topic A includes lessons 1-6 and covers the area of parallelograms through rectangle facts, the area of right triangles, the area of acute triangles using height and base, the area of all triangles using height and base, the area of polygons through composition and decomposition, and area in the real world. (Currently, we do not have content for Lesson 6.)

Topic B: Polygons on the coordinate plane

Topic B includes lessons 7-10 and covers distance on the coordinate plane, drawing polygons in the coordinate plane, determining perimeter and area of polygons on the coordinate plane, and distance, perimeter, and area in the real world.

Topic C: Volume of right rectangular prisms

Topic C includes lessons 11-14 and covers volume with fractional edge lengths and unit cubes, from unit cubes to the formulas for volume, the formulas for volume, and volume in the real world.

Topic D: Nets and surface area

Topic D includes lessons 15-19 and covers representing three-dimensional figures using nets, constructing nets, from nets to surface area, determining surface area of three-dimensional figures, surface area and volume in the real world.
