Segments and Chords in a Circle
This activity is designed to allow students an opportunity to gain an understanding of the relationship among the segment measures formed by intersecting chords in a circle. It includes an interactive geometry page, some circle problems, and a Euclidean proof.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/segments-and-chords-in-a-circle
Shortest Distances
Students will explore three situations involving distances between points and lines. First, the minimum distance between two points leads to the Triangle Inequality Theorem. Then, the shortest distance from a point to a line is investigated. Finally, students find the smallest total distan...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/shortest-distances
Paths of Rectangles
This exploration for preservice teachers, looks at how the lengths of the sides of rectangles with equal areas are related. The rectangles are constructed so that one vertex is at the origin. The path of the opposite vertex is an example of indirect variation and demonstrates a connection between...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/paths-of-rectangles
Patterns in Area - Impact of Changes in Length and Width
Students will explore what happens to the area of a rectangle if you double the length and width.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/patterns-in-area--impact-of-changes-in-length-and-width
Proportional Segments
The purpose of this activity is to investigate the relationship between segments formed by drawing a line parallel to one side of a triangle or by drwing and angle bisector of one the angles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/proportional-segments
Possible Lengths of Sides of Triangles
The first problem in this activity has students explore the varying length of the third side of a triangle when 2 sides are given. They will discover that the length of the third side must be between the difference and the sum of the other 2 sides. The second problem extends this idea of the le...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/possible-lengths-of-sides-of-triangles
Properties of Parallel Lines
