Triangle Exploration
Learners are introduced to The Geometer's Sketchpad software while in the computer lab. They focus on triangles, horizontal lines, vertex and top parallel lines. Each student utilizes geometry to complete basic geometric constructions.
Curated OER
Angle Pairs
Students identify different angle pairs. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify the different angles of two parallel lines cut by a transversal. They identify the interior and exterior angles.

Chords of Circle
In this geometry learning exercise, 10th graders solve problems using parallel chords, perpendicular bisectors and chords that are equal distance from the center.
Curated OER
Angles ~ Right Angles
Have your class review how to identify right angles. Learners identify right angles, and then write the number of angles found in each shape.
