Investigating Pythagorean Triples
Students investigate and solve Pythagorean triples. For this geometry lesson, students find the missing sides and angles of a right triangle. They graph right triangles and move the sides around to create different angles.
Curated OER
Investigating the Pythagorean Triples
Students investigate the Pythagorean triples. In this geometry lesson, students solve for different parts of a right triangle. They identify the missing side or angle using the pythagorean theorem.

Distance Formula
Students calculate the distance formula. In this geometry lesson, students find the distance between two points on a coordinate plane. They identify the four different quadrants.
Curated OER
Calculating Distances in Two and Three Dimensions
Young scholars use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve problems. In this geometry lesson, students solve for the distances by calculating the different parts of the shape of a two and three dimensional shape. They reason by analogy.
Curated OER
Vectors
In this geometry worksheet, students investigate vectors. They add, subtract and identify the magnitude of each vector. There are 4 questions with an answer key.
Curated OER
Symmetry in Kaleidoscope Designs
Students define reflection, rotation and symmetry. In this symmetry lesson, students move the graph around the coordinate plane and identify the line of symmetry. They identify the different designs of a kaleidoscope.
