Angle and Perpendicular Bisectors in a Triangle

The students will examine where the perpendicular bisectors and angle bisectors of a triangle intersect. The students will circumscribe a circle around the triangle and will inscribe a circle within the triangle. There is a page at the end of each activity with the circle constructed if the s...

Angle Relationships

In this activity, students explore the angle relationships that exist when two lines intersect. They begin by exploring vertical angles and linear pairs, and then expand their study to two lines and a transversal. They will see what relationships hold true when the two lines intersected by a tran...

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.

The Hinge Theorems

Students will explore the inequality relationships that arise when some of the triangle congruence conditions are in place but others are not. The SAS Inequality Theorem and the SSS Inequality Theorem are often referred to as the Hinge Theorem and its converse. These two theorems concern inequali...

The Ladder Problem Revisited

In this activity students explore the locus of mid-point of the hypotenuse of a fixed length geometrically and algebraically and discover that the median a right triangle is equal to half the length of the hypotenuse. Students then prove this property. The problem: A ladder leans upright against ...

The Pirate Problem

The classic geometry problem developed in 1947 by George Gamow comes alive with the interactive platform of TI-Nspire. Will the treasure still be found after the palm tree in the treasure map disappears? What begins with inductive reasoning ends with a formal proof. This lesson, easily adapte...

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 +...

The Lunes of Hippocrates

In this activity, students will explore a figure that involves lunes - the area enclosed between arcs of intersecting circles. When lunes are constructed on the sides of a right triangle, an interesting result occurs.

The Art Project

Students explore the locus of points in the interior of the right angle such that the sum of the distances to the sides of the angle is constant.

Supplements and Complements

The attached files contain a supplementary angle and complementary angle for students to explore. They are asked which point changes the measure of the angle. They can move various parts of the construction. The files are designed to be used with your current instructional materials.

Taxicab Geometry

In this activity, 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 pe...

Solving for Sides in a Right Triangle

This activity was designed for the Grade 11 College Math course in the Ontario curriculum. Students are expected to solve problems, including those that arise from real-world applications, by determining the measures of the sides and angles of right triangles using the primary trigonometric ratio...

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...

How far do you live from school?

Prior to this activity students determine how far they live from school and how long it takes them to get to school. They analyze this data using various types of graphs and draw conclusions regarding the relationship between time and distance. They also look at zip codes and explore factors that...

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...
