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...

Finding the Minimal Path to Put Out a Fire

A camper (at position A) must quickly put out a campfire (at position B). The river is represented by the horizontal line segment CD passing through point P. Where should point P be positioned on the river so that the camper will travel the shortest (minimal) path from point A, to the river at po...
