Looking at numerous examples of triangles, each with different properties, geometers develop their understanding of congruency. They use the notation of a counter-example to disprove certain conjectures and prove geometric theorems and...

Ready to study inequalities with your class? Use this worksheet to solve multi-step inequalities and graph the solutions. The document would be great to use as a study guide as you present the material, or could easily be modified and...

Compare geometric solids based on their properties. Your emergent geometers use spaghetti and marshmallows to build models so they can examine the number of faces, edges, and vertices on polyhedra of their own creation. Resource includes...

Elapsed time is a skill developed by the single question that is the center of this activity. Fifth graders are asked to find out the time that is 2011 minutes after the beginning of 2011. This question addresses the standard that...

Students draw a chart (included in the lesson) to use with their investigation. They review terminology of triangles and receive toothpicks to use in the lesson. Beginning with three toothpicks, students form a triangle. They complete...

How many visual models can be used to show multiplication? Three basic kinds of models can be used to represent and explain the equation 4 x (9 + 2).  The commentary section provides description and graphics to explain the set...

Expand your knowledge of exponents with an activity that promotes critical thinking and comparison skills. Middle and high schoolers compare numbers written in expanded and exponential form and explain their strategies for solving...

In this factoring worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 24 different problems that include multiplying and factoring various equations. First, they multiply the listed equations and apply the distributive property when needed. Then,...

Students factor polynomials and use long division t solve problems. In this algebra lesson, students find the zeros of polynomials by synthetic and long division. They perform operation using complex numbers.

In this function and graph worksheet, students read and interpret maps and graphs. They write an equation, define variables and solve the equation. Students solve diamond problems and use the distributive property to solve equations. ...

In this algebraic equations learning exercise, students solve 8 equations. Students then answer 2 word problems and simplify 2 expressions by combining like terms and using the distributive property. Students also write equations from...

In this algebra worksheet, students identify the order of operation and the distributive property. They add, subtract, multiply and divide expressions and equations. There are 10 questions with an answer key.

In this addition and subtraction activity, students solve ten multiple-choice questions concerned with the properties of addition and multiplication.  Solutions are provided.

In this math worksheet, students use the distributive property to complete computation with radicals. Students multiply pairs of binomials that have the square root sign in each pair.

In this polynomial worksheet, students use the distributive property to multiply polynomials. This one-page worksheet contains ten problems.

In this square root activity, students solve simple square roots and square roots containing exponents. Students use factoring and the distributive property under the square root prior to solving. This one-page activity contains ten...

In this sum of the numbers worksheet, learners write equations to determine the sum of numbers under given situations. They use the distributive property to solve two-step algebra problems. This one-page worksheet contains ten problems.

Hopefully nothing gets lost in translation. Pupils translate between verbal phrases and algebraic expressions. They then use candy to determine what values to substitute into the expressions.

In this math worksheet, students read about and learn the properties of addition. Students study the commutative, associative, identity and inverse properties. There are no problems on this page for students to solve.

Here's an assessment task that's better than watching a show. Young mathematicians solve word problems involving multiplication and division with equal groups. They must find the total number of attendees on a trip to a theater based on...
