Students learn to draw a segment and its perpendicular bisector. They understand right angles and congruent segments. Students observe that changing the length or orientation of the segment changes the perpendicular bisector.

Given an information about the lengths of line segments, form and solve an equation in order to find the lengths of the segments. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or...

The resource explains how to calculate the length of a line segment by working out an example.

In this activity, students will explore the proportional relationships involved in multiple parallel lines being cut by transversals. These relationships are approached through exploration of a sail design problem, where students are to...

[Free Registration/Login Required] In this lesson, students will generate measurement data by measuring lengths using rulers marked with halves and fourths of an inch and show the data by making a line plot. This lesson includes an...

Eighth graders are shown two line segments that are the same length and must describe a sequence of reflections that exhibits a congruence between them. Aligns with 8.G.A.2.

Students learn about chords of a circle. They draw a line perpendicular to the chord and passing through the center of the circle. They explore the lengths of the two segments of the chord. They investigate with a different chord and...

In this task, learners investigate a dilation of a line segment and how the length of the dilation relates to the scale factor. Aligns with G-SRT.A.1.

In this activity students experiment with simulating hair with rigid line segments. They use the controls to change the number of hairs as well as the number and length of segments in each hair. Click and drag to the head to move it.

The CyberSquad tries to rescue the Cyberchase Council, which is being held captive by Hacker in this video segment from Cyberchase.

In this activity, students investigate properties of triangles by randomly generating possible side lengths for triangles. They learn to determine if three line segments can form a triangle. They also learn to classify triangles as...
