Hey, Ortho! What’s Your Altitude?

In this activity, students will explore the altitudes of a triangle. Students will discover that the altitude can be inside, outside, or a side of the triangle. Students will discover that the altitudes are concurrent. The point of concurrency is the orthocenter. Students should discover the rela...

Incenter of a Triangle

In this activity, students observe a special characteristic of the bisectors of the angles in a triangle. They test their conjecture by changing the size and shape of the triangle. NCTM Geometry Standard covered: Analyze characteristics and properties of 2- and 3-dimensional geometric shapes and ...

Constructing Triangles

This activity focuses on the various ways to construct the different types of triangles such as isosceles, equilateral, right, and right isosceles triangles. Students will begin by constructing triangles based on a minimal definition of the shape of the triangle. They will then make constructions...

NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Traffic" - Birthday Surprise

Students will study the birthday problem and other similar applications.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--traffic--birthday-surprise

Number Sets

When you start this activity, students receive a Venn diagram of real number sets (natural, whole, integer, rational, irrational)on their calculator. This same diagram is projected on the Activity Center screen at the front of the room. The teacher writes a value on the board and students move th...
