Interior / exterior angles of a polygon
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the relationship of the interior and exterior angles of a polygon. The applet shows an irregular polygon where one vertex is draggable. As it is dragged the interior and exterior angles at that vertex are displayed, and a formula is continuously updated showing that they are supplementary. The tricky part is when the vertex is dragged inside the polygon making it concave. The applet shows how the relationship still holds provided you get the signs of the angles right. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

Interior of an angle
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the concept of the interior of an angle. The applet shows an angle where the user can drag the points that define it. A free-floating point can be dragged, and any time it is in the interior of the angle it 'lights up' to show that fact. It can be seen that the interior region stretches out to infinity even if the angle is defined by finite-length segments. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

Intersecting Chord Theorem
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the 'Intersecting Chords' Theorem. (When two chords intersect each other inside a circle, the products of their segments are equal.) The applet presents a circle with two chords. Each end of the chord can be dragged. As it being dragged a calculation continuously changes that shows that the products of their segment are in fact equal. The calculation can be turned off for class discussions. The text on the web page gives four different formulae for calculating the area, depending on the initial givens. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

Intersecting Secant Theorem
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the 'Intersecting Secants Theorem'. The applet shows a circle and two secant lines intersecting at a point outside the circle. The secant points and the external point are draggable. As you drag them the secant lines are redrawn and a realtime computation on the applet shows that the product of their segments are always the same. By dragging two secant points together, the Tangent-Secant Theorem is also demonstrated. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

Intersecting straight lines. (Coordinate Geometry)
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that show how to find the intersection of two straight lines, given the equation for each. The applet sows two lines defined by two pairs draggable points. As any point is dragged the equations for the lines are derived and the point of intersection calculated. The web page shows worked examples using various line slopes, equation forms and unusual conditions, such as one line being vertical. The grid, axis pointers and coordinates can be turned on and off. The equation display can be turned off to permit class exercises and then turned back on the verify the answers. The applet can be printed as it appears on the screen to make handouts. The web page has a full description of the concept of the equation of a line, a worked example and has links to other pages relating to coordinate geometry. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

Invitations to Mathematics
Rating
0.0 stars

"Provided below are links to a series of free booklets to assist mathematics teachers of Grades 4, 5, 6.

These books will stimulate interest, competence, and pleasure in mathematics among students. The activities are appropriate for either individual or group work. Collaborative activities allow students to construct their own meanings and understanding. This emphasis, plus the "Extensions'' and related activities included with individual activities/projects, provide ample scope for all students' interests and ability levels. Related "Family Activities'' can be used to involve the students' parents/caregivers.

Each book is intended to occupy about one week of daily classes. However, teachers may choose to take extra time to explore the activities and extensions in more depth. The books have been designed for specific grades, but need not be so restricted. Activities are related to curriculum expectations."

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate isosceles triangles (two sides the same length). The applet presents a triangle where the user can drag any vertex. As the vertex is dragged the others move automatically to keep the triangle isosceles. The angles are also updated continuously to show that the base angles are always congruent.

Let’s Build an Aqueduct!
Read the Fine Print
Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

Students explore in detail how the Romans built aqueducts using arches—and the geometry involved in doing so. Building on what they learned in the associated lesson about how innovative Roman arches enabled the creation of magnificent structures such as aqueducts, students use trigonometry to complete worksheet problem calculations to determine semicircular arch construction details using trapezoidal-shaped and cube-shaped blocks. Then student groups use hot glue and half-inch wooden cube blocks to build model aqueducts, doing all the calculations to design and build the arches necessary to support a water-carrying channel over a three-foot span. They calculate the slope of the small-sized aqueduct based on what was typical for Roman aqueducts at the time, aiming to construct the ideal slope over a specified distance in order to achieve a water flow that is not spilling over or stagnant. They test their model aqueducts with water and then reflect on their performance.
