Area of Triangle using the Semi-Perimeter and Radius
Learners investigate the properties of circles. In this geometry activity, students calculate the area and perimeter of a triangle. They identify the perimeter and radius length of a circle.
Curated OER
Connecting Formulas Related to Geometric Figures
Students identify diagrams of quadrilaterals and circles by different names and classify the figures. They name the areas for each diagram and practice solving the formulas for each.
Curated OER
Circles and Pi
Students identify the relationship between the radius and Pi. In this geometry activity, students calculate the circumference and area of a circle. They create visuals to help them see how the circumference relates to Pi.

Measuring the Earth
Students identify types of arcs and angles in a circle, find the measure of arcs and angles, and solve real world problems involving lengths of segments in circles, lengths, and areas.
Curated OER
Sectors of Pizza
Students identify the properties of a circle. In this geometry activity, students relate properties of diameter to sections of a pizza. They calculate the measure of an arc and missing angles.
Curated OER
Hexagoning the Circle
Students explore similarity to see that the area of a circle should be a constant times the square of its radius. Students create a hexagon. Students share their designs with the class.
