King of Excuses

Why your late to class:
I hurt myself,
I didn't hear the bell,
I had to do a job,
I had to get a ball from the back of the field,
My friend got hurt and I needed to help him.

Why your homework isn't done:
The dog ate it,
I lost it,
My parents threw it out,
I wasn't feeling well,
My little brother ate it,
I was absent that day,
My laptop wasn't working.

Questions you hate answering:
I think I need to go,
My Mum's calling me got to go,
Change the topic,
Did you hear about what happened before,

Why you shouldn't do sport:
I'm injured,
It's too hot,
I might hurt myself,
I don't want to get sunburn,

Poem of Excuses:
I shouldn't do sport,
My dog ate my book,
I'm going to cook,
If you let me off this one time,
I might burn from the sunshine.

How to find all angles and all sides

Today in Maths I have been working on explaining how to the the Maths calculation of How to find all angles and all sides. This question was based on the test our class had to the day prior to making this post. Hope you enjoy this post,

S              C               T
O/H          A/H           O/A
We are using sign because we are given the Opposite and the Hypotenuse.

Sin = OPP/HYP
Sin = 12/17
Which means we dived 12 by 17=0.7058
Then on the calculator we press (shift, sin) which now means sin-1 when we put 0.7058 in we get an answer of 44.894. This means the first angle is 44.894 degrees.



               
To find angle number we know that all angles in a triangle equal 180 we have two angles already discovered which are 90 degrees(because it's a right angle) and the angle we discovered just before 44.894. We can add 90 degrees+44.894 which = 134.894 degrees. Then we do 180 degrees - 134.894 degrees= 45.106 which means the angle number two equals 45.106 degrees.









Now we need to find the length of the final side, side B. To find length of side B we can can use a^2 + b^2 = c^2. 12^2 + b^2 = 17^2, 144 + b^2 = 289. Change side change sign. 289-144= 145. Square root of 145 = 12.04=Side B.














Angle Check:
90 + 44.894 + 45.106= 180
All angles are correct.

Side Check:
12^2 + 12.04^2=17^2
144 + 145 = 289.
All sides are correct.

Horror Camping Trip

This Short Story is about if  You and your three closest friends decide to go camping. You arrive and set up camp nearly three miles away from where you left your car. Late that evening, as you sit around the campfire roasting marshmallows, one of your friends reveals a deep dark secret that turns what was to be a fun weekend into one of the scariest weekends of your life.

This is my Short Story:
So last weekend Myself, Michael, Austin and Logan went camping at a camp site just outside of Christchurch. We arrived but had to park about three miles away from were we set up. About an hour and a half later we were all set up and decided to start a fire and have some Marshmallow's. The out of nowhere Austin tells us that for the past week he has been having nightmares about Pennywise from the IT series. Then he goes and says that the day before he was making a salad and in the corner of the room he saw Pennywise with a red balloon. That freaked us out then out of nowhere a Red Balloon floats out of a bush. We were so scared we fan about a mile but stopped near a tree stump so we could sit down. Then out of nowhere they hear someone say "You'll Float Too, You'll Float Too" over and over. We all quickly turn around and find Pennywise just standing there. We all hit the boost running about two miles to finally finding our car. We all hopped in a I drove the fastest I ever have, I'm surprised I didn't get a speeding ticket.

Unexpected Wealth

Today in English I have been working on this piece of writing. It is about I'm clearing out a garage and I find a box that is heavier that it should be. He opens it and find 40,000 in cash exactly. He finds out who put it there and why they put it there. This is the story,

The other day I was clearing out the garage like any normal person would and I found this strange looking cardboard box. I lifted it up and this box was heavier than it should of been. This box was taped up so I opened it and found a surprising 40,000 dollars. I was so surprised, then I got to thinking about who put it there.  Then I remembered my Great Granddad. When I was a little lad my Great Granddad gave all my family some money when he got ill. He passed a few weeks later and my theory is that he didn't get to spend much time with me so he gave me more money that the other.

His father was a very successful ball player in college, but unfortunately one day before the NBA Draft where he was expected to be number one pick he was playing street ball went for a dunk slipped and landed on his neck. Basically he snapped his neck and could never play basketball again. He is fully recovered now days but enough of that. Jonathan is a big Miami Heat fan, it is quite self explanatory.

He also has a day job where he works everyday except Sundays. He works at Subway. He is a great employee except when he gets caught stealing the cookies. He makes a good amount of money and lives a healthy life. But one day that all changed, his brother went missing. He spent about four days looking for him but then there was this guy called Steve.
