Geometry Definitions
Geometry is full of shapes, figures, and corresponding things here and there. The guide shares all of the key pieces of geometric information in a nicely color-coded and labeled sheet.
Flipped Math
Proving Lines Parallel
Show it can all be proved. Scholars learn the converses of the properties of parallel lines. Using the converses, pupils determine which lines are parallel based on angle measurements and practice using a flow proof to show that two...
Flipped Math
Properties of Parallel Lines
Work within a parallel universe. Scholars learn about the relationships of angles when two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal. They see how to find the measurements of all eight angles by knowing the measure of one angle....

More with Proofs
Proofs may be as easy as 1, 2, 3 ... maybe. Pupils participate in creating four example proofs. The presentation uses a list of geometric properties to develop the proofs by filling in both the statements and reasons. Scholars practice...

Angle Pairs
Complement the class by identifying pairs of angles. With a vocabulary lesson, pupils learn the names and definitions of special angle pairs including adjacent, vertical, complementary, supplementary, and linear pairs. Using the...
Radford University
Streets of Stephens City
Who has the best street smarts? An educational lesson has future mathematicians analyze street maps and measure angles on the map to determine if streets are parallel. They also consider safety issues at different types of intersections.
Radford University
Parallel Lines Cut By a Transversal
Perhaps planning a city isn't so difficult after all. Scholars first perform geometric constructions and investigate how parallel lines are useful in real-world situations. They then work on a city design project, drawing street maps,...

Parallel Lines Cut by a Transversal
Use the parallel lines to find your way. After first reviewing geometric constructions and the relationships between angles formed by parallel lines and a transversal, young mathematicians write proofs for theorems relating to parallel...

Vertical Angles: Yo-Yo Eiffel Tower Trick
Yo, yo, learn about vertical angles with a yo-yo. Using an interactive, scholars adjust the position of fingers holding a design from a yo-yo. Answering a set of challenge questions based on the interactive helps clarify understanding of...
CK-12 Foundation
Vertical Angles
Examine vertical angles from a different angle. Moving one line in an intersecting pair of lines lets users see relationships between vertical angles. They finish by answering some machine-scored questions on the topic.
Virginia Department of Education
Lines and Angles
Explore angle relationships associated with transversals. Pupils construct parallel lines with a transversal and find the measures of the angles formed. They figure out how the different angles are related before constructing...

Geometric Figures and Scale Drawings
Scale up your lessons on geometry and ask learners to investigate conditions on triangles, scale drawings, the area and circumference of circles, and angle relationships. The resource includes activities and a homework assignment.
University of Utah
Geometry: Angles, Triangles, and Distance
The Pythagorean Theorem is a staple of middle school geometry. Scholars first investigate angle relationships, both in triangles and in parallel lines with a transversal, before proving and applying the Pythagorean Theorem.
