Quadrilateral Alien Project Aliens have invaded our Connexus Learning Management System! You have been asked to produce a picture of the aliens so security can locate them more easily. The problem is, the aliens are made up of polygons! To help you create the Polygon alien, you must follow the guidelines provided by security below: Guidelines: Presentation - * You must use PowerPoint software and create a presentation for the alien. * The PowerPoint presentation will be a minimum of 5 slides and the descriptions for each slide are below. If you need more space, feel free to use additional slides. 5 is the minimum. Alien Slides- Slide 1: Title slide: Include your name, class, the name of your alien and the planet it is from – use geometry terms and be creative! 1 point Slide 2: The alien! The alien must consist of a minimum of 5 polygons (at least 3 must be quadrilaterals and you must use at least three different types of quadrilaterals). Use the draw and shape tools within PowerPoint or similar tools to create your alien. 2 points Slide 3: State the names of the different types of quadrilaterals you used to make your alien and list the properties of each quadrilateral. You may use your textbook (Chapter 6) for assistance but you will need to state the properties in your own words. 3 points Slide 4: To better help security, we need to provide them with dimensions of the aliens. The total height of the alien must be given (give the height of each figure creating the body height and add these heights together). You may print out the picture of your alien and use a ruler to measure. Show how you determined the total height of your alien and include what units you used to measure. 1 point Slide 5: The total area of the alien must be given (find the area of each polygon and add all of the areas together – show all of your work). 3 points
