The Great Pyramid of Giza was built some 4,500 years ago, and for nearly 4,000 years was the tallest building in the World. How big is our school compared to this fabled structure? See how many of the following ways to compare size you can complete.
The size of the Great Pyramid of Giza can be found from this Link. Remember to show your work!
1.One way to compare is to measure the base area of Bruce and the Great Pyramid. Area is Width X Length
2.Another Way to measure is to compare the heights of the two structures. No climbing the school to find the height!!! Have someone stand beside the school estimate how many of them it would take to reach the top of the school.
3. Perhaps the most accurate way to measure the size is by comparing the volume. Width X Length X Height/ gives us the volume of Bruce Middle School. The volume of a pyramid is Width X Length X Height /3.
