Join Joan the chameleon in an exploration of lines and slope. You'll be drawing lines, calculating slope, using equations and more!

Draw rays, lines, and line segments with given points.

Learn all about lines. This lesson targets what is a line and the different types. Check-out the interactive simulations to know more about the lesson and try your hand at solving a few interesting practice questions at the end of the page.

Students will investigate patterns and make conjectures about geometric relationships.

This robust lesson plan for upper elementary and middle school grades introduces the concepts for lines, rays, line segments, and planes. Resources are linked to it and ready for your use.

[Free Registration/Login Required] In this lesson, students will generate measurement data by measuring lengths using rulers marked with halves and fourths of an inch and show the data by making a line plot. This lesson includes an...

Explains the basic concept of lines and angles with step-by-step instructions and methods for solving specific problems on your own relating to this topic.

[Free Registration/Login Required] This lesson is an introduction to the basic geometric figures: lines, rays, and line segments. The definition and naming conventions for each figure are explained. An assessment section follows.

Use the coordinate plane and Pythagorean theorem to determine the length of a line segment. Click on the "Topic Index" to find a related practice exercise and teacher resource.

A complete reference guide to points, lines, and planes. It provides definitions and interactive activities that enhance further explanation.

The student will derive and use the slope and midpoint formulas to verify geometric relationship that include parallelism and perpendicularity of lines. Then, the student will determine an equation of a line parallel or perpendicular to...

Students make connections between the coordinate grid and Geometry by finding the distance of line segments using the coordinate plane. This activity includes a detailed lesson plan, slides containing notes and problems, and a...

Practice drawing parallel and perpendicular lines, line segments, and ray. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

Students act as civil engineers developing safe railways as a way to strengthen their understanding of parallel and intersecting lines. Using pieces of yarn to visually represent line segments, students lay down "train tracks" on a...

[Free Registration/Login Required] This flipchart describes the differences between a line, ray, and line segment.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this lesson students identify points, rays, lines, and line segments. Students examine guided notes, review guided practice, watch instructional videos and...

Not only does this site show what the slope-intercept form is, but it helps you find the slope and the intercept of a line. There is also additional information on parallel lines, parametric form, and the distance between two points.

Get independent practice identifying points, lines, rays, planes and angles. Each incorrect response gets a text box explanation and another try. Correct responses are confirmed.

Learn about line segments with this useful reference guide. Provides a detailed definition, examples, and an interactive activity that enhances further explanation. Includes links to related topics.

This task provides a construction of the angle bisector of an angle by reducing it to the bisection of an angle to finding the midpoint of a line segment. Aligns with G-CO.D.12.

Students learn to draw a segment and its perpendicular bisector. They understand right angles and congruent segments. Students observe that changing the length or orientation of the segment changes the perpendicular bisector.

This interactive Java applet allows visualization of line segments and their slopes. The slope and how it is found is given for each line drawn by the user.

This step-by-step tutorial teaches students how to construct a bisector of a segment and the bisector of an angle.
