Coordinate Geometry Teacher Resources

Who knew quilting would be so mathematical? Introduce linear equations and graphing while working with the lines of pre-designed quilts. Use the parts of the design to calculate the slope of the linear segments. The project comes with...

Proofs are usually an intimidating assignment. An engaging lesson focused on geometric proofs may reduce the anxiety! Pupils choose between several triangle proofs to complete and work on completing them. The assignment also gives a...

Your learners will enjoy this conglomerate of hands-on activities and projects that can be used in algebra one and two, geometry, and personal finance. Rich in math standards, these projects reach into learners' lives to motivate and...

In this coordinate geometry worksheet, 10th graders solve and draw 10 different problems related to complete proofs in coordinate geometry. First, they prove that a figure with given points is another figure by using slopes. Then,...

In this coordinate geometry activity, students determine the coordinates of an unknown vertex. They write a coordinate proof supporting their findings. This four-page activity contains examples, explanations, and 8 problems. Answers are...

In this coordinate geometry learning exercise, students identify the lengths of a quadrilateral and find the slope of a line. They use proofs to identify the characteristics of given quadrilaterals. This one-page learning exercise...

How do you know you know? Prove it! The guide goes through several examples and includes a link to a video to teach learners how to work through coordinate proofs. The goal is to prove that different shapes are indeed that shape. 

New ReviewA geometry module connects algebraic reasoning to geometry. It challenges scholars to investigate the slope criteria for parallel and perpendicular lines, prove theorems involving coordinate geometry, and write equations for circles and...

What would your dream house look like? A cottage? A medieval castle? High schoolers enrolled in Algebra design the perfect house while using slopes to write equations for various aspects of the project.

This unit on connecting algebra and geometry covers a number of topics including worksheets on the distance formula, finding the perimeter and area of polynomials, the slope formula, parallel and perpendicular lines, parallelograms,...

Where do the coordinates lead? As children brainstorm ways to find the location of different buildings, they learn about coordinate points and how to use them to locate areas on a grid or map. They practice using ordered pairs by playing...

Students solve proofs dealing with the coordinate plane. In this geometry lesson plan, students verify properties of triangles and quadrilaterals.

Scholars determine distances on the coordinate plane to find areas. The lesson begins with a proof of the formula for the area of a parallelogram using the coordinate plane. Pupils use the coordinate plane to determine lengths to...

Trace the links between a variety of math concepts in this far-reaching unit. Ideas that seem very different on the outset (like the distance formula and rigid transformations) come together in very natural and logical ways. This unit...

Learners derive the distance formula  using the Pythgorean theorem. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the midpoint formula and use it to find the distance.

New ReviewWhere is the point? Given three points on the coordinate plane, the video walks through the steps to find the location of the fourth point to create a given special quadrilateral. The narrator first determines the coordinates of the...

Stretch your knowledge of ratios to the coordinate plane. The interactive allows pupils to set the endpoints of a directed line segment and form a right triangle. Using rubber bands, users visualize the line segment divided into equal...

Learners prove conjectures about geometric figures on the plane or in space using coordinate geometry. They develop fluency in operations with real numbers, vectors and matrices using mental computation or paper-and-pencil calculations...

Connect algebra and geometry on the coordinate plane. The eighth unit in a nine-part integrated course has pupils develop the distance formula from the Pythagorean Theorem. Scholars prove geometric theorems using coordinates including...

Multiply coordinates to either shrink or enlarge a figure. An informative segment of a geometry playlist introduces dilation on the coordinate plane. The dilations in the resource use the origin as the center of dilation, which makes...

Get the slope right with two easy steps. By placing two perpendicular lines on the coordinate plane, the video determines the relationship of the slopes of the two line lines. The resource is a part of an informative and extensive...
