In this limit of slopes worksheet, students compute the limit of slopes, find the slope of the secant line, and determine the slope of the tangent line. This one-page worksheet contains five multi-step problems.

Young geometers get some solid skills practice in evaluating slopes. Beginning with the basics of slope through two points and progressing through properties of parallel and perpendicular lines, the building of skills is gradual and...

An upper-level treatment of what is often presented as a basic concept (the right angle of an inscribed circle on the diameter), this activity really elevates the mathematical thought of the learner! Expected to develop formulas...

In this slopes puzzle instructional activity, students solve and complete 16 different problems that include determining various slopes of equations. First, they cut apart each of the pieces shown. Then, students use the slopes of each...

Students graph families of equivalent fractions and compare them by observing the slope of the line formed by each fraction family. They place fractions in ascending order by comparing the slopes of each line after several families of...

This is a great exercise in graphing proportional quantities to interpret the unit rate as the slope of a graph. It is not easy for learners to understand what a unit rate is. When it is presented as the slope of a linear line graph,...

Before graphing and finding distances, learners investigate the coordinate plane and look at patterns related to plotted points. Points are plotted and the goal is to look at the horizontal and vertical distances between coordinates and...

Pupils determine the pattern in collinear points in order to determine the next point in a sequence. Using the definition of slope, they practice using the slope formula, and finish the activity with three different ways to...

In this limits worksheets, students graph tangent lines and determine the slope of a secant line. This one-page worksheet contains six multi-step problems.

Work on graphing linear equations using the provided materials. The print and video lesson thoroughly review the concepts related to graphing linear equations in slope-intercept and standard form. The materials prepare learners for...

Different forms, same line. Young mathematicians investigate the standard form, slope-intercept form, and point-slope form of a linear equation. An interactive has them adjust lines on a coordinate plane to see changes in each form of...

Create a linear equation for a problem when the intercept information is not given. The two-day lesson introduces the class to the point-slope form, which can be used for problems when the initial conditions are not provided. Pupils...

An equation is an equation is an equation. Scholars see there are many ways to solve them when they first sort a set of linear equations as written in standard form, point-slope form, or slope-intercept. They then write equations in all...

Good things happen when algebra and geometry get together! Continue the exploration of coordinate geometry in the third lesson in the series. Pupils explore linear equations and describe the points of intersection with a given polygon as...

Designs from lines are sublime. Scholars create colorful designs by connecting points on an interactive coordinate plane. They answer questions about slope and quadrants based on their designs.

Pupils study angle measurements between different types of angles associated with parallel lines and transversals. The independent practice asks pupils to identify the types of angles in a diagram and to determine the measure of...

Here is an introduction to solving simultaneous linear equations. Start by drawing a line through two points. Create a second line which goes through the intersecting point. Background knowledge of how to find the equation of a line and...
