Circles: A Geometric Perspective

For Teachers 10th - 12th Standards
Circles are the foundation of many geometric concepts and extensions - a point that is thoroughly driven home in this extensive unit. Fundamental properties of circles are investigated (including sector area, angle measure, and...

Circles, Chords, Diameters, and Their Relationships

For Teachers 9th - 10th Standards
A diameter is the longest chord possible, but that's not the only relationship between chords and diameters! Young geometry pupils construct perpendicular bisectors of chords to develop a conjecture about the relationships between chords...

Ptolemy's Theorem

For Teachers 9th - 12th Standards
Everyone's heard of Pythagoras, but who's Ptolemy? Learners test Ptolemy's Theorem using a specific cyclic quadrilateral and a ruler in the 22nd installment of a 23-part module. They then work through a proof of the theorem.

Construct an Equilateral Triangle (part 2)

For Teachers 9th - 10th Standards
Triangles, triangles, and more triangles! In this second installment of a 36-part series, your young mathematicians explore two increasingly challenging constructions, requiring them to develop a way to construct three triangles that...

Why Doesn't SSA Work?

For Teachers 10th - 11th
Students investigate the relationship between angles and their sides. In this geometry lesson, students prove why SSA does not work as a true angle side relationship theorem.

Investigating AAS

For Teachers 9th - 10th
Students investigate the theorems of ASA, AAS, AAA and ASA. In this geometry lesson, students discuss the theorems of triangles and how it is used to solve for missing sides or angles. They review how two angles are formed by two rays...
