How many sides does that polygon have? Building directly from lesson number eight in this series, learners now find the area and perimeter of any polygon on the coordinate plane. They decompose the polygons into triangles and use Green's...

In this X vs. T graph, learners sketch velocity vs. time graphs corresponding to the following descriptions of the motion of an object. Students also draw the velocity vs. time graphs for an object whose motion produced the distance vs....

This jumbo worksheet contains everything you need to get through Pre-Algebra. Begin with simple expressions, and end with linear functions and polygons. There are multiple problems for each topic to make sure those skills are set. 

Interpreting graphs of functions is addressed in a short worksheet. Distance as a function of time is sketched on a graph, and a few quick questions ask about their meaning. This would make a good short assessment, or a nice worksheet to...

In this graphing the motion of objects worksheet, students compare graphs of distance vs. time and speed vs. time of objects moving at constant speed, accelerating, slowing down, and stopped. Students identify the movement of a car given...

As a middle school assessment task, learners interpret the graph of distance versus time for a bike ride. Pupils then determine distance of the trip, length of the trip, and speeds.

Which is faster, a Ford or a Ferrari? The short assessment has pupils analyze graphs to determine the rates of change between the two. Individuals interpret the rates of change within the context of speeds of the cars and develop a map...

It is not always easy to walk the straight and narrow. In the sixth portion of a nine-part unit, groups actively recreate a graph depicting motion. Individuals walk toward or away from a motion detector while trying to match a given...

In this distance worksheet, learners solve 12 multiple choice, short answer, and graphing problems.  Students use the distance formula to find the distance between two points.

Make an estimate by getting in line. The class works with scatter plots and lines of best fit to make an estimate for given values. Pupils determine whether there is a positive or negative correlation and draw a best-fit line. Using the...

Here you will find a model of a linear relationship between two quantities, the water depth of a channel and the distance across the channel at water level. The cross section of the channel is the shape of an isosceles trapezoid. The...

Give every type of learner in your physics class an opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned throughout the year. From analyzing tables and graphs to evaluating diagrams and solving problems, there is an outstanding variety of...

In this graphing worksheet, students read information and study diagrams about graphing. Students complete 3 graphing activities.

Give AP Calculus classes the opportunity to check the accuracy of their calculations! A calculus activity involves the collection of data, the application of mathematics, and the analysis of the accuracy of results. Young mathematicians...

How do you combine linear and nonlinear functions? You piece them together! The lesson begins by analyzing given linear piecewise functions and then introduces nonlinear parts. Then the process is reversed to create graphs from given...

Programming a robot is a mathematical task! The activity asks learners to examine the process of programming a robot to vacuum a room. They use a coordinate plane to model the room, write equations to represent movement, determine the...

It's time for scholars to show what they know about coordinate planes with a collection of three assessments. The exams' objectives include plotting points on a single grid, measuring using the distance formula, and identifying...

Create an understanding of solving problems that require more than one equation. The lesson introduces the concept of systems of linear equations by using a familiar situation of constant rate problems. Pupils compare the graphs of...

In this Olympic bar graph worksheet, students pick a sport from the 2004 Olympic games and find data from the Olympic web page. They graph the scores (times, distance, or speed) and the medals. They answer questions about the variables...

In this graphing linear motion worksheet, students answer 20 questions about velocity of objects, the distance they travel and the time. They interpret a graph of position vs. time and identify the velocity at certain point on the graph.

A graph not only tells us who won the bike race, but also what happened during the race. Use this resource to help learners understand graphs. The commentary suggests waiting until the end of the year to introduce this topic, but why...

In this velocity worksheet, students determine the average velocity for a trip, graph the distance traveled as a function of time, estimate the slope and identify the instantaneous rate of change of the function. This two-page worksheet...

In this graphing speed learning exercise, students find the slope in a position vs. time graph to be the speed. They are given example graphs of position vs. time to show the changes in slope reflect the changes in speed. Students match...

In this linear motion instructional activity, students answer 11 questions including finding acceleration of moving objects, finding the distance objects travel and finding the time it takes objects to move a particular distance....
