Formative Assessments

Constructing a Congruent Angle:

Students are asked to construct an angle congruent to a given angle.

Type: Formative Assessment

Students are asked to construct a line segment congruent to a given line segment.

Type: Formative Assessment

Original Student Tutorials

Angle UP: Player 1:

Explore the construction processes for constructing an angle bisector, copying an angle and constructing a line parallel to a given line through a point not on the line using a variety of tools in this interactive, retro video game-themed tutorial.

NOTE: This tutorial uses both the angle bisector construction and the construction to copy an angle as an extension opportunity to also construct a line parallel to a given line through a point not on the line. Students also learn to identify corresponding angles created when a transversal crosses parallel lines, and discover using Geogebra that these angles are congruent.
