[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] This study guide reviews the formulas for area and perimeter of triangles and different kinds of quadrilaterals.

Find the area and perimeter of triangles and quadrilaterals by first using the Pythagorean Theorem to find missing side lengths. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video, or...

Learn how to find the areas and perimeters of triangles and special quadrilaterals.

In this lesson plan, students explore properties of triangles. They fold paper to make a triangle and measure its angles. Students also draw triangles with given conditions. Included are examples, discussion questions, and closing...

Use a "linkage strip" to build triangles with different side lengths. When you build a triangle, see if you can deform it into a different triangle while keeping the side lengths the same.

This lesson focuses on polygons; a polygon is a closed, flat shape that has only straight sides. Polygons can have any number of sides and angles, but the sides cannot be curved.

The interactive Cabri Jr. geometry application makes it easy to measure the area of triangles and quadrilaterals. In this activity, students will explore some interesting area relationships in quadrilaterals.

Models how to write a similarity statement about different types of triangles and quadrilaterals.

Students understand that a tessellation is covering of a plane with a pattern of figures so there are no overlaps or gaps. They draw quadrilaterals and triangles and explore monohedral, dihedral, and trihedral tessellating patterns.

Explore finding and measuring perimeter of figures.

This site provides definitions of different types of polygons and figures.

Here is a huge collection of teacher resources for teaching 2-D and 3-D shapes. Includes smartboard and PowerPoint presentations, as well as worksheets and helpful hints.

[Free Registration/Login Required] This flipchart provides students with notes and practice with using formulas for finding the area of triangles and quadrilaterals.

In this two-day lesson, students will collaborate to create a healthy pizza using only geometric items that have been precisely measured. Students must identify the items as triangle, quadrilateral (parallelogram), or cube. Next,...

This site contains a wealth of problems that deal with the basic definitions of medians, altitudes, angle bisectors, and perpendicular bisectors or the defining characteristics of the different types of triangles. There are also...

Did you know that two-dimensional shapes are also called polygons? This lesson describes the various 2-D shapes and includes two interactive games to reinforce skills.

Learn all about the basic properties of equilateral. This lesson targets the meaning of equilateral, shows how to construct equilateral shapes, explores some of the equilateral shapes and properties, and how to apply them while solving...

Learn about the properties of 2-D shapes: circles, triangles, polygons, and quadrilaterals. Includes information, video, and examples about each, with games and quizzes for reinforcement.

The students will explore angles, rays, line segments, perpendicular lines, parallel lines, and two-dimensional figures through the use of the book Shape Up! Fun With Triangles and Other Polygons by David A. Adler. They will also...

This website has basic definitions for most polygons, regular and irregular.

In this task, students must draw a diagram from a verbal description and use their understanding of similar triangles to find the area of a quadrilateral. Aligns with G-SRT.B.5.

Guide a mummy safely through the burial chambers of a pyramid as you solve length and area problems in basic to advanced geometry. There are four game zones that deal with circles and triangles, quadrilaterals, the Pythagorean Theorem,...

Students solve for missing angle measures by applying what they have learned about types of angles and the angle measures of polygons. Students do a pre-assessment at the end of the lesson.

Explains the basic concept of a square with step-by-step instructions and methods for solving specific problems on your own relating to this topic.
