Art Integrated Math Project
Art and Mathematics are closely related in terms of reasoning skills and pattern recognition. They both use geometry in their work.
Theme: Simple Machines
Aim : To draw a bicycle on a plane page using different 2D shapes.
- Draw 2 circles (for wheels).
- In between the 2 circles, draw a triangle.
- Join 2 vertices of the triangle with centers of the 2 circles.
- On the remaining vertex, draw one small circle for the pedal.
- Now, draw the seat of the bicycle in a triangular shape and shade it.
- Then, draw the handles of the bicycle in rectangular shape.
- And draw the pedals of the bicycle also in rectangular shape.
- Now, draw 2 small circles in between the big circles (for tyres).
- And draw 1smaller circle in the last circle and an outer circle in the middle circle for drawing its chain.
- Now, for the proper shape of the wheels, draw diameters on the circles and shade the wheels.
2D Shapes Used:
- Circle (7)
- Triangle (2)
- Rectangle (4)
