Same Base and Height, Variation 1

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Four triangles are depicted for learners to construct on a geoboard. They compute and compare the areas, and so meet one of the sixth grade Common Core standards for geometry. Note that the set of triangles does not include a right triangle, so to completely fulfill requirements, more resources are needed. This would make a compact pop quiz for your class.
