Congruent or Not?

In this activity, students will investigate whether AAA, SAS, ASA, or SSA relationship guarantee that two triangles are congruent or not. This is an exploratory activity where students will need to know how to change between pages, grab and move points, and measure lengths.

Triangle Sides & Angles

Students will explore side and angle relationships in a triangle. First, students will discover where the longest (and shortest) side is located relative to the largest (and smallest) angle. Then, students will explore the Isosceles Triangle Theorem and its converse. Finally, students will determ...

The Geometric Mean

In this activity, students will establish that several triangles are similar and then determine that the altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the geometric mean between the segments into which it divides the hypotenuse.

Regular Polygons - Angle Measurements

Students will investigate the number of degrees in each polygon with three through ten sides, then develop a formula for the relationship between the number of sides and the sum of the measures of the degrees of the polygons.

Pythagorean Relationships

Investigate the triangles that can be formed using one side of three squares to build the triangle.

The Pythagorean Theorem—and More

Students construct a triangle and find all angle and side measures. They practice dragging the vertices to form certain types of triangles, and then they confirm the Pythagorean Theorem for right triangles. Moreover, they discover the types of triangle that occur when c2 a2 + b2 or when c2 > a2 +...

Long Run

This lesson involves investigating simulations used to observe long-run relative frequencies.

Supertall Skyscrapers

In this activity, students use their handhelds to measure scale drawings of famous “supertall” skyscrapers. They first check that the Sears Tower is drawn to scale and then use their measurements to calculate that scale. Next, they write and solve proportions to find the heights of other skyscrap...

Lines of Fit

This lesson involves informally fitting a straight line for a given data set that represents mean verbal and mathematics scores on SAT in 2004 across all 50 states and Washington, D.C.
