Assessment / LT 2: Use a variety of mathematical and technological tools to determine measurements directly (ruler, protractor, compass) and to check reasonableness of answers. When students apply technology, e.g. computers and graphing calculators, they will interpret results appropriately.
LT 12: Identify and apply definitions related to lines and angles in order to use them to solve problems and perform basic geometric constructions.
LT 13:Classify and describe polygons and 3-dimensional figures
LT 14: Use and analyze geometric relationships and properties of polygons and 3-dimensional figures to solve mathematical and real world applications. / 2.3* Measure angles using a
protractor
8.3* Use a coordinate plane and
the distance and midpoint formulas
to determine lengths and midpoints
of segments.
12.1* Identify and name points,
lines, rays, segments and planes.
12.2* Name and classify angles
and line segments.
12.3* Identify and use angle-pair
relationships in mathematical and
real-world applications.
12.4* Classify and communicate
the differences between pairs of
lines.
12.6 * Prove statements about
segments, lines, angles and angle
relationships by using properties,
postulates, and theorems.
13.1* Classify polygons by sides and
angles.
13.2* Classify triangles by sides and
angles.
13.3* Classify quadrilaterals by their
parts.
13.5* Describe properties of
quadrilaterals.
