The Euler Line and Its Ratios

In this activity, students will explore the Euler Line of a triangle. Students will discover that the centroid, circumcenter, and orthocenter are collinear. Students will also find that if the triangle is isosceles, then the centroid, circumcenter, incenter, and orthocenter are all collinear. Stu...

Taxicab Geometry

Students begin a study of taxicab geometry by discovering the taxicab distance formula. They then use the definition of radius to draw a taxicab circle and make comparisons between a circle in Euclidean geometry and a circle in taxicab geometry. Lastly, they construct taxicab perpendicular bisect...

NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "All's Fair" - Guess My Type or Lose

In "All's Fair," Charlie attempts to use social image typology to analyze motivations and strategies to determine which person(s) would be most likely to commit a terrorist act. With social image typology, one can study why people make decisions that they do. Based on what they know about each su...

The Tangent Ratio

In this activity students explore the tangent ratio. Students construct a right triangle using perpendicular lines, and a line that forms the hypotenuse of the triangle. When students construct the hypotenuse line it is very important that the second point that forms the line is not on the perpen...
