Triangle Inequality Theorem
High schoolers investigate the relationship between angle measures and sides of a triangle and the relationships among the three sides of a triangle. The use of technology (Cabri, Jr.) allows learners to make and test conjectures as they...
Curated OER
Midsegments of Quadrilaterals
High schoolers explore the concept of quadrilaterals as they find the midsegments of quadrilaterals using Cabri Jr. on a graphing calculator. They find midpoints, slopes, angles, and distances of lines and angles.

Midsegments of a Triangle
Students analyze midsegments of triangles in this instructional activity. They use Cabri Jr. software to observe the relationships between interior angles and midsegments of triangles. Specific instructions for creating this...
Curated OER
Ratios in Right Triangles
Learners calculate the sides of right triangles in this trigonometric ratios lesson. They use Cabri Jr. software and TI-83 or TI-84 calculators to find the side lengths and their ratios to each other for various triangles. The provided...
Curated OER
Rotations in the Plane
Pupils investigate the properties of a rotation as they use technology (Cabri, Jr.) to observe the relationship between the pre-image and the image formed by the rotation. The lesson provides ample opportunity for learners to conjecture...
Curated OER
Triangles: Triangle Inequalities
Using SketchPad on their calculators to construct triangles, students measure exterior angles and remote interior angles of their constructed triangle. Students develop the triangle inequality from observation and exploration with their...
Curated OER
Connecting Translations, Reflections, and Rotations
Learners differentiate between translation, reflection and rotation. They explore the 3 types of transformation using Cabri Jr. and build on previous knowledge in this lesson.
