Angles, Lines, and Transversals
Geometers identify and determine angle pair relationships when two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal. They review the concepts of angles by watching streaming video clips online, read definitions of lines and angles from...

Geometric Angles
Students explore angles and their use in Geometry. Students investigate three different kinds of angles: obtuse, acute, and right angles through an online activity. They identify pairs of angles with special relationships: vertical,...

Angles That Pair
Students identify angles. In this angles that pair instructional activity, students identify adjacent, vertical, complementary, and supplementary angles. They use straws, pretzel sticks to demonstrate given types of angles.

Does Your Field Measure Up
Students measure angles using a plane table kit. In this geometry instructional activity, students use trigonometric identities to find the values of the length of a football field.

Definition of Reflection and Basic Properties
Discover the results of reflecting an image. Learners use transparency paper to manipulate an image using a reflection in this fourth lesson of 18. They finish by reflecting various images across both vertical and horizontal lines.

Angles in Standard Positions
Young scholars identify positive and negative angles using the Unit Circle. In this pre-calculus lesson, students identify the different angles on a unit circle using the coordinate plane and the four different quadrants as a guide. They...

Using Technology To Teach Parallel Lines With Transversals
High schoolers explore the relationships between angles formed by two lines cut by a transversal when lines are and are not parallel. They define key vocabulary terms, then using a camera take pictures at their school of parallel lines...

Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
Tenth graders explore parallel and perpendicular lines. In this geometry instructional activity, 10th graders investigate the relationships associated with parallel lines and transversals, perpendicular lines, and the angles formed by...

Triangle Congruency Proofs (part 1)
Can they put it all together? Ninth graders apply what they know about proofs and triangle congruence to complete these proofs. These proofs go beyond the basic triangle congruence proofs and use various properties, theorems, and...

Inductive and Deductive Reasoning
Introduce pupils to the two types of reasoning, inductive and deductive. Classmates work in pairs or small groups to learn the difference between the two and apply these reasonings to develop valid conclusions.
