Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Investigating Segments in a Quadrilateral
In this activity, students use the tools of Cabri Jr to test their knowledge of geometry. They investigate the properties of the shape formed by connecting the midpoints of adjacent sides of a quadrilateral.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Cyclic Quadrilaterals
Students construct cyclic quadrilaterals and investigate their properties. They determine which quadrilaterals from the quadrilateral hierarchy are cyclic.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Measuring Angles in a Quadrilateral
In this activity, use an interactive, and investigative approach to determining the sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral. They use Cabri Jr. to draw, measure, and calculate the characteristics of the angles of quadrilaterals.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Exploring Quadrilateral Properties Using Cabri
Students can use Cabri Jr. to learn about the properties of quadrilaterals as well as learn about the relationships between quadrilaterals.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Investigating Properties of Kites
In this activity, students construct kites and investigate their properties. They also relate the properties to squares and rhombi.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Classifying Quadrilaterals
Students will be sent ordered pairs through lists using the TI-Navigator. These pairs will then be graphed as a line graph and students will classify the shape of the quadrilateral and justify their choice.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Investigating Properties of the Diagonals of Quadrilaterals
In this activity, students will explore the properties of the diagonals of various quadrilaterals. They will use a quadrilateral hierarchy chart to examine the relationship between the quadrilaterals.

Texas Instruments: What Quadrilateral Is It?
Students will algebraically determine what type of quadrilateral that is pictured in the activity center.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Discovering the Quadrilateral Properties
This activity will use Cabri Jr. to allow students' the ability to discover all of the properties of each quadrilateral, rather than simply copying them out of a textbook.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Exploring Quadrilaterals With Cabri Jr.
Students can use Cabri Jr. software on their TI-83/84 calculator to connect consecutive midpoints of different quadrilaterals and analyze and determine characteristics of the new quadrilateral formed.
