Curated OER
Angle and Radian Measure
In this angle and radian measure learning exercise, students find the measurement of a central angle. Students determine the speed of rotation, linear speed of a point, and radians per second. This two-page learning exercise contains...
Curated OER
Math: Gears and Wheels
Twelfth graders solve problems involving linear and angular speed. Using information about a compact disc, they solve the problem using multiple rates and conversion factors. Students also solve additional problems involving bicycle...
