Converse of the Pythagorean Theorem
Discover a new application of the Pythagorean Theorem. Learners prove and apply the converse of the Pythagorean Theorem in the 17th lesson plan in a 25-part series. The examples ask learners to verify right triangles using the...

Pythagorean Theorem by Graphic Manipulation
There are many different ways to show a proof of the Pythagorean Theorem. Here is a nice hands-on paper cutting activity that shows a graphic representation. You can even challenge your young Pythagoreans to come up with their own...

Parallel Lines, Transversals, and Angles: What’s the Connection?
Streets, bridges, and intersections, oh my! Parallel lines and transversals are a present in the world around us. Learners begin by discovering the relationship of the angles formed by parallel lines and a transversal. They then...

Why Doesn't SSA Work?
Students investigate the relationship between angles and their sides. In this geometry lesson, students prove why SSA does not work as a true angle side relationship theorem.
