Roofing – Shingles are sold by the ‘square’. One square of shingles covers 100 square feet. Again, you’ll need to know how many square feet of roof you need to cover, in order to purchase the right amount of shingles

Reason 1
Egress windows – Bedrooms are required by code in most places to have an egress sized window. If you ask for the definition of what constitutes an egress window, you’ll be given a size of an opening. This answer won’t mean much to you if you don’t understand basic geometry.
Reason 2
Sewing – When preparing to do a sewing project, the first thing you need to calculate is how many square yards of fabric that you are going to need. Without a knowledge of geometry, you aren’t going to be able to make that calculation.
Reason 4
Concrete – If you’re planning to pour a concrete slab, you’ll definitely need your geometry. Concrete is sold by the cubic yard. You’ll need to know the formula necessary to calculate the number of cubic yards needed for that 12 ft. x 12 ft. x 4 inch slab.
Furniture – Buying and placement of furniture also requires some geometry calculations. How much area do we have to place the couch in? Is there really room for that corner hutch? Are some questions including geometry while doing this activity.
