Parallel or Perpendicular-What's Your Inclination?
Activity Overview
This activity has students discover the relationship between parallel and perpendicular lines and their slopes. After constructing these objects using CABRI Geometry II for the TI-89, slopes are measured. (Topic - parallel and perpendicular lines)
Before the Activity
Students should have access to the TI-89/TI-89 Titanium.
During the Activity
Students will construct multiple lines using CABRI Geometry II and determine whether the lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither. This activity can be teacher directed or discovery.
