Circumcircle of a Regular Polygon
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that show the properties of a circumcircle of a polygon. The applet shows a regular polygon where the user can drag the vertices to reshape it and alter the number of sides. As the polygon is being varied, the circumcircle is shown, passing through all vertices. The text describes two ways to calculate the radius of the circumcircle, depending on what you are given to start. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector. This resource is a component of the Math Open Reference Interactive Geometry textbook project at http://www.mathopenref.com.

Circumscribed rectangle, bounding box. (Coordinate Geometry)
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that show the definition and properties of the bounding box of a polygon or set of points. The bounding box is used in other entries to find area using the so-called box method. The grid, coordinates and calculations can be turned on and off for class problem solving. The applet can be printed in the state it appears on the screen to make handouts. The web page has a full definition of a bounding box when the coordinates of the points defining it are known, and has links to other pages relating to coordinate geometry and a worked example. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

Complementary Angles
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the concept of complementary angles (angles that add to 90 degrees). The applet shows two angles. You can drag the endpoints of each angle and the other angle changes so that they always add to 90 degrees. They are drawn in such a way that it is visually obvious that together they form a right angle, although they are separate on the page. The angle measure readouts can be turned off for class discussions. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

Concave Polygon
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the concept of a concave polygon - one where at least one interior angle is greater than 180 degrees. The applet shows an irregular polygon initially with one interior angle greater than 180 degrees. The user can drag any vertex and change the number of sides in the range 3..99. When the polygon is concave, the angles that make it so are drawn in red. The goal is to show through experimentation what the concept of concavity really means. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.
