Unit 11 Review: Circles
Solve problems around a circle. Pupils watch a video that shows how to apply concepts about circles and related angles and segments to find solutions to word problems. Learners then review the different concepts from the unit in...

Chords and Arcs
Congruence breeds congruence. Pupils learn three more circle theorems dealing with congruent chords and arcs. Learners use the theorems to find the measures of chords and arcs in circles by applying previously learned concepts in the...

Unit 9 Review: Area of Polygons
It's time to show what you know! Individuals first review finding the area of polygons using the formulas from parallelograms to regular polygons. They then brush up on finding the area and circumference of circles, as well as reviewing...

Circles and Arc Lengths
Discuss all things round and round. Pupils review finding area and the circumference of circles and use them to solve problems. Next, they learn about central angles and their relationships to measures of arcs. Learners then find out how...

Where Should We Sit?
Where's the best seat in the house? Given a diagram of a movie theater, pupils determine the best seats based on the viewing angle. They use inscribed angles to justify their choices.

Pizza Sector Task
Gobble up a slice of the task. Scholars first consider the area of a whole pizza, half a pizza, and a quarter of a pizza. They then consider other central angles and develop a formula for the area of any sector of a circle.

Discover Radians!
No need for radians to be mysterious. Scholars use a cardboard cut-out of a unit circle and measure the radius and circumference using a piece of string. They consider the number of radii needed to cover the entire circumference and use...

Angles in the Same Segment – Proof
If angles intercept the same arc, the angles must be the same size. The quick video talks through the proof of showing the reason two inscribed angles that intersect the same arc have the same measurement. Pupils then create their own...

Introduction to Angles
Approach the instructional activity from the right angle. A discussion-based instructional activity leads helps learners understand angles in terms of rotation. Individuals use manipulatives to explore the properties of angles and learn...
CK-12 Foundation
Length of an Arc: Pi Hour
What time is it when the arc length is pi? An interactive displays the measure of the angle created between the hour and minute hand of a clock. Pupils can set the clock to different hours and calculate the arc length based upon the radius.

Arcs and Angles
Noah didn't construct this kind of arc. High school scholars first explore how angles can be formed in circles. They then learn relationships between angles and arcs by conducting an exploratory activity where they position and draw arcs...
Mathematics Assessment Project
Inscribing and Circumscribing Right Triangles
High schoolers attempt an assessment task requiring them to find the radii of inscribed and circumscribed circles of a right triangle with given dimensions. They then evaluate provided sample responses to consider how to improve their...
