Connections- Klara and the Sun and Blade Runner 2049

Connections between Klara and the Sun and Blade Runner 2049?


Discrimination:

  • Blade Runner- Replicants get discriminated because they aren't fully human. The non- replicants are shown as royalty because they are fully human and they somehow feel like their better than everyone.

  • Klara and the Sun- The people who are lifted are discriminated against because they are shown as a disgrace to the human population. The people who haven't been lifted are shown as normal people.


What is love:

  • Klara and the Sun- In this book, we see that Klara says "Love isn't what you feel on the inside, it's what everyone else's feels about you".

  • Blade Runner- Even though Joi isn't a real person, K still loves her for who she is, he doesn't care if she's real or not.

How to Label a Triangle

When labeling a triangle, there are a couple of rules around it. 

  • When labeling a triangle, all of the angles on the triangle must be a capital letter. 
  • All sides of a triangle must be labeled with a lower case letter.
  • Each letter must be opposite from the other. For example- Angle A should be opposite of side a, same with angle B and angle C.
You do not use this rule with a RAT (right angle triangle) because you only have one of each letter on those triangles.

What is the Sine rule?

 Today in math we have been learning about the sine rule. We worked on a shared slideshow with the whole classroom to put information about the sine rule. Here is a photo of the information Zapa and I discovered about the sine rule. 

This photo explains how to use in when solving problems and it shows the formula that is needed to work a problem out when using the sine rule.

Practice paragraph

Colour and Lighting

In the film Blade Runner 2049, the aspects of Colour and Lighting were paired effectively in the scene where K walks into his apartment to meet Joi. We see this when K takes Joi outside to show her the rain and show her that it won't affect her in any bad way. The lighting is low-key because it's really dark and gloomy.

Indices

 Indices

What is a Math Indice?

An index number is a number that is raised to a power. The power, also known as the index, tells you how many times you have to multiply the number by itself. Here is a link to the site I found this information from- Link to site


What are the rules around Indices?

Index laws are the rules for simplifying expressions involving powers of the same base number.  Watch out for the powers of negative numbers. 

I found this information from google.


What happens to a positive and negative number?

When working out an equation, if the number of the indice is a negative number and the number the indice is next to is negative, then the answer will end up as a negative. 

If the indice is a positive number and the number next to it is a positive number, then your answer will be a positive number.

If the indice is a positive number and the number next to it is a negative number, then your answer will become a positive number.
