Geo/Algebra II,Due 10/20/2016: Fourth Dimension

In class, we began a brief conversation about the tesseract or the hypercube.  It's amazing how simple transformations can create such a powerful concept.  In this blog, you have an opportunity to think about this more deeply or see some beautiful images.

Here are a couple links for fourth dimension discussion:

High School Student Discussion. (This is an academic discussion by a bright high school student, dry in imagry, but with some great ideas.

Forget about your familiar world. (This could simply blow your mind with the simplex, It's 14 minutes that just keeps getting more and more interesting. Watch the first 8 minutes then I challenge you to just try to stop the video. At 9 minutes you have the hypercube. )

OR, find your own resource for thinking about a tesseract or hypercube or the 4th dimension (Please, no Dr. Who links....keep this mathematical.)

I hope this is fun for you; please keep asking yourself the "Why?" or "How?" questions so you can delve a little more deeply into your blog.  Find something fun or interesting and write about it.  Let is be recreational!
