Special Segments in Triangles

Students will construct and explore medians, altitudes, angle bisectors, and perpendicular bisectors of triangles. They then drag the vertices to see where the intersections of the segments lie in relation to the triangle, and they measure distances to identify relationships.

Parallel Lines Cut by a Transversal

Students will develop and strengthen their knowledge about the angles formed when parallel lines are cut by a transversal. The measurement tool helps them discover the relationships between and among the various angles in the figure. Students will draw parallel lines, draw a transversal, and expl...

Parallel Lines cut by a Transversal with Cabri Jr.

Using Cabri Jr, the students (with the teachers help) will create parallel lines cut by a transversal, measure angles, and compare the relationships of the angles formed using features of the Cabri Jr.

Tiles in a Bag

How many tiles would you have to pick to be confident that your estimated probability truly represents the situation? In this activity, you will draw a tile from a bag, record its color and put it back in the bag. The bag contains 24 tiles some blue and some green. A green tile is considered a s...

Stretching Slinkies

This lesson provides students with the opportunity to explore the TI-84 graphing calculator in conjunction with Microsoft Excel®. Students will use the "Stretching Slinkies" worksheet to record and enter data. They will either: enter data into Microsoft Excel to synch with the TI-84, OR, enter da...

Best Class

Students will create and explore a box plot and histogram for a data set. They then compare the two data displays by viewing them together and use the comparison to draw conclusions about the data.

Rotations in the Coordinate Plane

It is important for students to know what happens to the coordinates of points when they are rotated in the coordinate plane by 90 or 180 degrees, either clockwise or counterclockwise. This activity enables students to use Cabri Jr. to develop this understanding.
