Special Segments in Triangles

In this activity, students construct 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. They see that the i...

Investigating the Angles of a Triangle

The following will find the sum of the interior angles of a triangle and the sum of the remote interior angles of a triangle. Students can then change the type of triangle. The student will see that the sum of the interior angles is always 180 degrees. Also, the student will see that the sum of t...

Perpendicular Slopes

Students investigate the 'negative reciprocal' relationship between the slopes of perpendicular lines. The final phase of the activity is appropriate for more advanced students as they are led through an algebraic proof of the relationship. Optional geometric activities (problems 5 and 6 of the ....

Inscribed Angles Theorem

Students investigate the relationship between inscribed angles and central angles, the Inscribed Angle Theorem.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inscribed-angles-theorem_1

Inscribed Angles

Students use animation to discover that the measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of its intercepted arc, that two angles that intercept the same, or congruent, arcs are congruent, and that an angle inscribed in a semi-circle is a right angle. They then discover that the opposite angl...

Make the Basket

Students will use parametric equations to model two physical situations: making a free throw (basketball) and hitting a home run (baseball). Students will begin exploring the models by using sliders to change to the angle and velocity of the shot or hit. They will then move the time slider to see...
