Think critically — and linearly by applying linear equations to solve real-world problems. Young mathematicians write equations to model the profit on popcorn and cotton candy at a carnival and solve problems using these equations.

When told to describe a line, do your pupils list its color, length, and which side is high or low? Use a worksheet that engages scholars to properly label line graphs. It then requests two applied reasoning answers.

What makes a function a function? Learn the criteria for a relation defined as a function both numerically and graphically. Once young mathematicians define a function, they use function notation to evaluate it. 

What do vertical lines have to do with functions? Individuals slide a vertical line through four different graphs. They use that vertical line test to determine if the graphs represent functions.

Fractions, ratios, and proportions: what do they have to do with segments? Scholars discover the midpoint formula through coordinate geometry. Next, they expand on the formula to apply it to dividing the segment into different...

Parallel lines seem so right for each other. It's too bad they'll never, ever meet. Learners use tracing paper to discover relationships among angles formed by two parallel lines cut by a transversal. They apply this information to find...

Tenth graders investigate the three D world of building. In this geometry instructional activity, 10th graders investigate math as it relates to the real world, increasing their perspective on mathematical concepts. They realize there is...

Learners identify the circumcenter of a triangle. For this geometry lesson, students construct a perpendicular bisector using a straight edge and a compass. They differentiate between triangles and collinear points.

Students solve problems using fractals. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of fractals. They find patterns in their surroundings and relate it to the real world and math.

Learners solve systems of equations. In this precalculus lesson,students solve linear equations using matrices. They use the Gaussian elimination method to identify the missing variables and simplify the linear equations.

Young scholars use Venn diagrams to represent classifications of shapes and to use counting arguments to find the number of objects in a given set.

Sixth graders explore geometric figures. In this geometry lesson, 6th graders manipulate properties and relationships of geometric figures to identify objects on the coordinate planes and describe where figures sit on the planes.

Fifth graders explore geometry by creating shapes with construction paper. In this shape characteristics lesson, 5th graders identify the different attributes that make up specific shapes and create them using construction paper, rulers,...

Fourth graders complete activities to increase their understanding of coordinates. They listen to Julie Glass' book, The Fly on the Ceiling, before playing fly tic-tac-toe and Swat the Flies, in which they use ordered pairs to state the...

In this SAT practice test, students compute the area and perimeter of polygons.  They determine the volume of a cylinder and solve problems with exponents.  This one-page worksheet contains 10 problems.  Answers are provided.

Students explore basic geometry. In this geometry lesson, students study points and lines that exist in flat planes. Students investigate parallel and perpendicular lines.

In this angle worksheet, students first draw a set of intersecting lines, then use a protractor to complete a set of instructions about angles and answer related questions. Answers included on page 2.

Students find missing angles and sides of triangles. In this geometry lesson, students create intersecting lines to measure angles. They use Cabri Software to create virtual angles.

Students investigate the relationship between angles of triangles. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of right and non-right triangles. They differentiate between vertical and supplementary angles.

In this math worksheet, pupils solve the problems that are correlated with the objectives. Each practice set has an in depth example.

In this line and angles worksheet, students explore basic geometry vocabulary.  They classify polygons.  Students determine the area and perimeter of given shapes.  They examine the parts of a circle, find volume and...

In this x-intercepts, students explore the equations of a line, set "y" equal to zero to determine the x-intercept. Explanations and examples are provided. This two-page worksheet contains ten problems.

For this geometry worksheet, 5th graders label the two figures shown. Worksheet reviews and provides examples of a point, parallel lines, angles, rays, line segments, and perpendicular lines.

Students create graphs comparing the amount of snow cover along selected latitudes using data sets from a NASA website. They create a spreadsheet and a bar graph on the computer, and analyze the data.
