Students make a simple sundial to examine the changes in shadows over time. In this sundial and shadow lesson, students make a simple sundial out of a manila folder and pencil. They observe how shadows change over time, and relate it to...

Learners discuss human behavior, sexual selection and the underlying genetic and evolutionary reasons for mate selection. The, in groups, they rate the attractiveness of certain individuals and measure facial features for symmetry.

In this geometry worksheet, students calculate the midpoint and distance between two points. They use the correct formula to solve the area and perimeter of polygons. There are 20 multiple choice questions with an answer key.

In this vector activity, students find the coordinates of a midpoint, compute the position of vectors, and write a vector equation. This two-page activity contains four problems.

Learners construct perpendicular lines. For this geometry lesson, students use a compass and straight edge to do construction. They start from a point to a line.

Students utilize triangulation techniques to determine altitudes of objects. An altitude locator is constructed and used to determine the height of a building or a tree. Tangent tables and formulas provide the ratio for the formula to...

Students engage in a lesson that covers the concepts related to the graphing of hyperbolas looking at topics like foci, center, vertices, and asymptotes. They find multiple different points in the coordinate plain and then plot the graph.

In this special segments in triangles activity, 10th graders solve 5 different types of triangles. First, they identify and describe the four types of segments associated with triangles. Then, students draw and label a figure that...

In this angle activity, 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 examine a math worksheet and determine how to divide a single triangle into four of equal area. Using geometric principles, they sketch two additional ways to divide into into four equal triangles. To conclude, students...
