30-60-90 right triangles in Cabri Jr

Activity Overview

Students will explore the relationships between the sides of 30-60-90 right triangles

Before the Activity

If this is the first time using Cabri™ Jr with your class, you may want to draw the triangle and transfer it to each calculator before starting the activity. This takes some time off the activity and makes it possible to do in a 40-minute period with students who are not yet familiar with Cabri Jr.

During the Activity

Please see the attached Word .doc for more details.

After the Activity

Review results with students and discuss.
