Learn how to use an algebraic formula to find the distance between two given points on a coordinate plane.

Learners explore the distance formula. They use Cabri, Jr. to explore distances in a coordinate plane. The lessons requires pupils to calculate distance with both the distance formula and the Pythagorean Theorem in order to discover the...

English language learners work through geometric vocabulary. They answer 6 true or false questions where they determine whether 2 drawings or figures, line segments, or angles, correspond to one another.

Learners draw and label 8 geometric figures when given the labels. Definitions of basic geometric figures are given. Some of the questions deal with parallel lines, perpendicular lines, and the vertex of angles and rays.

Here is an identifying lines, line segments, rays, and angles worksheet which has learners identify the figures by telling whether figures are right angles, less than a right angle, or greater than a right angle, identifying lines as...

Here is a recognizing basic geometric concepts word problem instructional activity in which learners use higher level thinking skills to draw, recall concepts, correct mistakes, and label geometric figures. They solve five problems.

Learners draw and label 12 different geometric figures which include lines, line segments, angles, and ray. They answer six questions where they are given labeled geometric figures and write the name and symbol for each figure. Pupils...

Clever! Supposedly a strong wind blew the letters off of a classroom bulletin board, and now learners connect them according to directions listed. As a result, they end up drawing a line segment, ray, intersecting line, angles, and...

Is it a line, line segment, ray, or angle? Identifying geometric figures is the focus. In addition to identification, learners recognize right angles or tell if an angle is less than or greater than a right angle. They tell if lines are...

In this recognizing geometric figures worksheet, learners read descriptions, draw, label, and write the names and symbols for basic geometric figures. Students solve thirteen problems.

Here is a set of five word problems in which geometers draw and identify points, lines, segments, rays. They determine if lines are perpendicular or parallel. This is a concise, yet applicable worksheet to help learners grasp the...

In this star names learning exercise, students draw a star map of the Big Dipper then label the name of each star in the constellation. Next, students answer 2 questions where they identify the stars that form angles greater than and...

Several real-world problems are posed as a way to learn about vector fields in order to make some predictions after analyzing the data. The main problem comes from the tv show NUMB3RS and is based on solving a crime where a body has...

Two figures are congruent if they have the same size and shape. Line segments can also be congruent if they are of the same length. Vertical angles created by intersecting lines are always congruent. Polygons that have matching angles...

Use this mathematical figures worksheet to have learners decide if four sets of figures are congruent, similar or neither. They study two figures in order to solve six measurement problems, and answer one problem solving word problem.

Find here a creative approach to reviewing lines, line segments, points, rays, and intersection. Riddle solvers answer questions or name parts of the figure that they have drawn by following directions at the top of the page. 

Elementary schoolers examine a bowl of alphabet soup and follow the directions to group the letters. They group letters that contain perpendicular, parallel, and non-perpendicular intersecting lines. They determine which letters have...

Middle and high schoolers explore the Pythagorean Theorem. They examine a proof of the Pythagorean Theorem in which they construct a square within a square and examine the right triangle formed. 

Middle and high schoolers complete 22 multiple choice and short answer questions regarding transformations, vectors, and right triangles.

In this gradient worksheet, students draw line segments and determine if they are parallel. They plot points on a coordinate plane and calculate the gradient of each created line. This five-page worksheet contains 8 multi-step problems....

Middle and high schoolers solve and complete 13 different types of problems. First, they find the image of each point or segment for the given rotation. Then, pupils copy each figure and the given point and draw the image of each figure...

Upper grade pupils identify diagrams, checking the appropriate box for each. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

Fourth graders examine and identify line segments and angles using dot paper to draw them. They look at vertical, horizontal, intersecting, parallel and perpendicular lines, draw right angles and angles that are greater than and less...

Third graders create a shipping box from a cardboard material. In this measuring lesson, 3rd graders read the book Henry's Freedom Box and discuss the main idea. In the story a slave ships himself to freedom and the students measure and...
