Can I Make a Triangle?

This TI-Nspire activity is for the Triangle Inequality Theorem. There are 3 problems that contain 3 segments each. The student tries to make triangles with these segments. They compare the lengths of the shortest to the length of the longest to see if the inequality is true or false. For the...

Balancing Point

In this activity, students will explore the median and the centroid of a triangle. Students will discover that the medians of a triangle are concurrent. The point of concurrency is the centroid. Students should discover that the center of mass and the centroid are the same for a triangle.
