Lines, Angles and Triangles Opening routine
Topic II: Lines, Angles and Triangles
Lines, Angles and Triangles Geometric Constructions Objective: Make formal geometric constructions with a variety of tools and methods (compass and straightedge, string, reflective devices, paper folding, dynamic geometric software, etc.). Essential Question: Is it possible to divide an angle into two equal parts using a geometric construction?
Lines, Angles and Triangles Geometric Constructions Vocabulary Construct: To create or draw geometric figures using only tools such as a compass and straightedge; measuring of lengths or angles is not permitted. Compass: Instrument for drawing circles and arcs and measuring distances between points, consisting of two arms linked by a movable joint. Straightedge: A ruler with no markings on it.
Lines, Angles and Triangles Geometric Constructions Vocabulary Equidistant: Lines or arcs that are the same distance apart at every point. Angle Bisector: A line that bisects an interior angle. Perpendicular Bisector: A line that is perpendicular to a segment at its midpoint.
