This activity is a follow-on activity to inscribing a square in a circle. The overall problem is more complex. It deals with geometric constructions, properties of triangles, and regular hexagons. The final part of the activity...

Are you tired of answers without understanding? Learners can give a correct response, but do they really understand the concept? Have young mathematicians think deeper about linear functions, angles, and formulas in algebra....

Farming is full of mathematics, and it provides numerous real-world examples for young mathematicians to study. Here, we look at a cylinder-shaped storage silo that has one flat side. Given certain dimensions, students need to determine...

Study inscribed angles in semicircles and quarter-circles. What conjectures can you make about the measure of an inscribed angle in semi- or quarter-circles?

Students investigate the properties of angles inscribed in a circle. They use the drawing and measurement tools of Cabri Jr. to draw and measure certain angles, and establish the relationship between angles that intercept the same arc.

Students investigate the relationship between measure of central and inscribed angles in a circle.

Using Cabri Jr. to explore the connection between central and inscribed angles along with their arc measure.

Practice using your graphing calculator for drawing circles and for finding measurements for circles and parts of the circle. If you get stumped or if you would like to check your work, then select the View Solution button, which is...
