Cell Phone Towers

In this activity students explore the locus of a point that is located twice as far from a given point A as it is from given point B. The locus is Apollonius circle. Students discover that the locus is a circle and then prove it. The key property: If a ray bisects an angle of a triangle, then it ...

Balancing Point

In this activity, students will explore the median and the centroid of a triangle. Students will discover that the medians of a triangle are concurrent. The point of concurrency is the centroid. Students should discover that the center of mass and the centroid are the same for a triangle.
