Statements often have multiple interpretations — but not these inequality statements. Scholars compare rational numbers and write inequality statements symbolically. The instructional activity includes problems that require comparing...

Three quick, real-life, inequality word problems greet your learners with a quick activity of writing and solving inequalities. This is a wonderfully simple inequality word problem activity.

In this triangle inequality worksheet, students test the Triangle Inequality Theorem. They measure the sides of given triangles, identify the type of triangle, and name angles in the triangle. The one-page worksheet contains 36 problems.

Here is a great set of eight scenarios that require the writing of a one-variable inequality and then solving to find the solution. This inequality word problem activity is then followed by the solutions to each of the eight problems.

For this secondary mathematics worksheet, students use the given information to determine which of the fractional inequality statements are true.  The one page worksheet contains one problem with the solution. 

Sixth graders investigate triangles and the inequality theorem. They will collaborate in groups to determine the length of a longest side of a triangle. Then relate the size of the triangle to its angles using protractors, yard sticks,...

Learners estimate and measure triangles. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify the relationship between three sides and a triangle. They use the inequality theorem to decide if a triangle will be formed or not.

In this secondary mathematics worksheet, students analyze the given conditions regarding an inequality statement to determine the relationship between the variables.  The one page worksheet contains one problem.  A solution is...

This inequality word problems activity is ideal to assess your learners' understanding of inequality and linear concepts around solving and writing equations and inequalities. Equations, graphs and real-life scenarios are used to...

For this number sense and operations worksheet, learners solve 15 different types of problems that include reading number lines and solving inequalities. First, they write the scientific notation of various numbers given. Then, pupils...

Don't let inequalities be a drag. As young mathematicians drag the endpoint of the graph of an inequality in an interactive, the algebraic form of the inequality changes. This helps them see how the graph connects to the inequality.

Not all triangles are created equal. A simple hands-on activity has learners investigate the side lengths of triangles. They use pipe cleaners to determine whether triangles of given side lengths can exist and then use the results to...

In this inequality worksheet, students graph the inequality of a line. They list ten integer coordinates that lie on the grid. Students explore their findings and answer thought questions. They shade the graph to indicate answers. ...

In this inequality worksheet, students solve inequality equations and graph the solution on a number line. They add and subtract fractions with variables and unlike denominators. Students solve absolute variable equations with one...

In this triangle inequality theorem worksheet, learners determine the lengths of the sides of triangles and identify the measure of angles. This one-page worksheet contains ten triangle theorem problems.

In this multi-step inequalities worksheet, students solve and complete 29 various types of problems. First, they write an inequality that corresponds to each statement. Then, students state whether each inequality is true or false. They...

Just when a young mathematician starts to feel comfortable turning word problems into linear equations, shake things up and throw inequalities in the mix. This excellent, instructive presentation takes the steps for solving an...

Although graphing a linear inequality on the plane is but a few steps added onto the graphing of a linear equation, for many learners the logical leap is quite intimidating. This approachable PowerPoint presentation breaks graphing...

Middle schoolers study the triangle inequality. They will identify, compare, and analyze attributes of two and three-dimensional shapes. Then they develop vocabulary to describe the attributes. They also use manipulatives to analyze the...

In this mixture word problem worksheet, students read story problems and determine what information is necessary to solve the mixture problem. They identify the correct solution, graph inequalities, and solve inequality equations. Nine...

In this solving inequalities worksheet, students solve inequalities with variables on both sides. They state the solution set of the inequality. This two-page worksheet contains 30 problems.

In this absolute value worksheet, students solve and complete 4 different types of problems. First, they rewrite the expressions without absolute value. Then, students solve each inequality shown. In addition, they simplify the...

Students discover that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side. They are shown how a triangle is formed using three strips such as that the triangle is seen inside the strips.

Students use the inequality theorem to solve triangles and their properties. For this geometry lesson, students are given spaghetti of different lengths and asked to create triangles. They conclude the necessary length needed to make a...
