FIRST SUMMATIVE TEST IN MATHEMATICS 10 (Weeks 1-2)

Second Quarter, S.Y. 2020-2021
Part II. Performance Task: Read and analyse the situation below. Then, answer the question and perform the tasks that
follow:
Karl Benedicto, the president of Math Club, proposed a project: to put up a rectangular Math garden whose lot
perimeter is 36 meters. He was soliciting from the members for feasible dimensions of the lot.
Suppose you are a member of the club, what will you suggest to Karl Benedicto if you want a maximum lot area?
You must convince him through a mathematical solution.

Consider the following guidelines:

1. Make an illustration of lot with the needed labels.
2. Solve the problem. Hint: consider the formulas P=2l +2w for perimeter and A=lw for the area of the rectangle. Use
the formula for P and the given information in the problem to express A in terms of eitherl and w.
3. Make a second illustration that satisfies the findings in the solution made in number 2.
4. Make recommendations in your solution. Write your solutions on the space below.
