What’s In
Geometric shapes are all around us – in the buildings where we live in, the cars we
ride in, even the food we eat.
Shapes are evident in all architecture. They provide variation and charm in
buildings. When applied to manufactured articles such as printed fabrics, wallpapers,
and tile flooring, shapes enhance the beauty of the structure itself.
We should realize we are surrounded by many different kinds of shapes every

day.
What’s New
Polygons and Solid Figures
Many of these shapes are two-dimensional plane figures. Plane figures up of

three or more closed line segments are polygons. Each line segment of a polygon is a
side. Polygons are classified by the number of sides.
Figure 1. Plane Figures

The word polygon is derived from the Greek words meaning many angles. A polygon is
a closed plane figure formed by three or more line segments which intersect only at
their end points. Each endpoint is common to exactly two segments.
Unlike plane figures, solid figures are not flat; they have three dimensions.
Some solid figures have curved surfaces; they can roll. Notice that the cone and
cylinder have both curved and flat surfaces. Flat surfaces are called faces. The faces of
the cone and cylinder are circles. The faces of some solid figures are polygon.
SELECTING MEASURING INSTRUMENT
All accurate ways used for magnificent works in masonry emphasize the
importance of quality and speed. In this regard, appropriate use of rulers, squares
and levels allows you to layout a project accurately.
LAYOUT TOOLS
1. MEASURING TAPE – Instrument used to measure vertical height/depth of

excavation.
2. WOODEN BLOCK – Hook onto the corner of a block and the string stretches
tightly between to serve as a guide for all of the blocks in the course.
3. MASON BLOCKS AND STRING – String stretches tightly between them to serve
as a guide for all of the blocks in the course.
4. FRAMING SQUARE –Square up measurements and draw cut lines for used as
Boards combination square. A framing square is handy for checking corners.
5. CHALK LINE - You need chalk line box to snap guideline.
6. MEASURING BOX – A traditional box used to measure a proportion of gravel
and sand with the dimension of 12” wide; 12” in long; 12” in deep width net
volume of 1 cu. Foot or 0.30 m x 0.30 m x 0.30 m. Take note that this dimen
sion are inside the box.
7. PLUMB BOB – Tool used to check the correct vertical alignment of a structure.
8. LEVEL HOSE WITH WATER – This is used to check the correct horizontal align
ment of a structure.
9. BOARD OR PLYWOOD – This serve as scaffolds and forms and supports
concrete.
ASSESMENT
I. Identify the kind of geometric shape shown below. Write your answer on the blank
provided.
1. _________
2. _________
3. __________
4. __________
II. Identify the masonry measuring tools being described in each of the following
sentences.
__________ 1. It is used to check the correct horizontal alignment of the structure.

__________ 4. Tools used for measuring long and short distances.
__________ 5. A type of sheathing which is widely used for scaffolding and forming.
__________ 6. This is used for making angles and larger than tri-square.
Additional Activities
Directions:
1. Take a picture of any room, building, houses, or structure in your neighborhood
and use different colored markers to highlight the shapes within.
2. You can also cut out the picture from a magazine.
3. Have a printed copy of the picture which includes the geometric figures you have
identified.
