Dilations Using Right Triangles
Don't argue with a triangle that has a 90-degree angle. It's always right. Scholars first use right triangles to help draw dilations of points. They continue the lesson by applying this skill to draw dilations of polygons.

Investigating Special Right Triangles
Scholars first investigate relationships in the side lengths of 30°-60°-90° triangles and 45°-45°-90° triangles. This knowledge then helps them solve problems later in the lesson about special right triangles.

Law of Sines
Laws are meant to be broken, right? Learners derive the Law of Sines by dropping a perpendicular from one vertex to its opposite side. Using the Law of Sines, mathematicians solve for various parts of triangles.

Parallel Lines Cut by a Transversal
Parallel lines seem so right for each other. It's too bad they'll never, ever meet. Learners use tracing paper to discover relationships among angles formed by two parallel lines cut by a transversal. They apply this information to find...

Investigating Similar Triangles
Let your use of the resource be in proportion to its usefulness. Pupils investigate similar triangles by measuring side lengths and considering given angle measures. The results of the investigation help develop generalizations about...

What's Your Design?
Sixth grade learners: design a stained glass window, submitting their initial plan detailing the measurements of all lines and angles. Seventh grade students: create a scale drawing of their own geometric family of four members.
Curated OER
Geometric Transformations
Students solve problems involving transformations of geometric figures. They review graphing points in the coordinate plain, plot points and connect to create a triangle. Then, they reflect triangles over the x and y axis and use...

Lesson Exchange: Polygons (Middle, Mathematics)
Students discover the relationship between the sides of a polygon and the number of diagonals that can be drawn from one vertex, the number of triangles that those diagonals form, and the sum of the interior angles of that polygon.
Curated OER
Finding The Circumference Given The Radius
Students develop an understanding of pi and the relationship between the diameter, radius and circumference. After a lecture/demo, students use construction paper and a compass to solve problems using diameter, radius and circumference.
