Ninth graders find the height of an object that would be difficult or impossible to measure directly. They construct and use a Clinometer to measure the angle of elevation (or depression). Students create a sketch of the measurement...

Fifth graders use tan to solve problems involving right-angled triangles. They solve equations of the form tan(8) =a, for a between 180 degrees and 360 degrees. They state the value of tan (8) in special cases.

Students work together to make figures out of tangram squares. In groups, they calculate the measurements they need and apply the Pythagorean Theorem. They complete a worksheet solving equations using the theorem and review their answers.

In this triangles worksheet, students use Pythagoras' theorem to find the hypotenuse of a triangle. Students solve 20 problems and also calculate the length of the diagonals in rectangles. This page is intended for online use but may be...

Pupils build a working definition of regular fractal, look carefully at the concepts of dimension and scale, and are introduced to logarithms. They solve simple exponential equations for the exponent both by trial and error and using logs.

Students build a working definition of a regular fractal, they measure the concepts of dimensions and scale, they explore the concept of a logarithm and they attempt to solve simple exponential equations for the exponent both by trial...

Pupils discover how to recognize tangents and how to use their properties. They investigate and use the properties of angles, arcs, chords, tangents, and secants. Students use two tangents and the properties of similar triangles to...

Second graders hand stitch three different appliqué stitches using triangles as a motif.

In this Care Homework worksheet, students solve a variety of multiple digit addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems that include fractions, decimals, and percentages. They demonstrate knowledge of geometric formulas...

Fourth graders observe geometric patterns to determine if they show rotational or point symmetry. They participate in the a demonstration lesson with a triangle. They create their own designs that show rotational or point symmetry.

In this tangram worksheet, students trace the tangram pieces and cut them out to solve the five problems. Students make shapes with the tangram pieces.

Learners explore the concept of fractals. In this fractals lesson, students use the website to research where fractals occur in nature. Learners research what fractals are and how fractals are used to solve real world problems.

Seventh graders review the process of finding the area of a rectangle and complete a couple of examples as a class. They discuss what a parallelogram is and what the formula would be for finding its area. They listen to an explanation...

Students explore the relationships among the lengths, areas, and volumes of similar solids. They also discover what effect doubling the dimensions of a figure has on the resulting area.

In this solid figures learning exercise, students use the figures for the cube, pyramid, and rectangular prism to answer the six questions about the characteristics of solid figures.

Learners estimate the equation of a line, angle of elevation and depression in this math lesson. They analyze e famous landmark design and make connections to algebra and geometry. They will also generate an equation, model the x and y...
