Standard Addressed:
MGSE.9-12.G.GPE.4 Use coordinates to prove simple geometric theorems algebraically. For example, prove or disprove that a figure defined by four given points in the coordinate plane is a rectangle (focus on quadrilaterals).
Learning Target/Success Criteria:
I can use coordinates to identify the most specific name of a quadrilateral.
I can prove the a parallelogram has 2 pairs of opposite sides parallel
I can prove that a rectangle has congruent diagonals or that adjacent sides are perpendicular.
I can prove that a rhombus has four congruent sides or perpendicular diagonals.
I can prove that a square has congruent diagonals and congruent sides (or perpendicular sides).
Introduction/Connection (Activator): students will complete #3 on Coordinate Quadrilaterals foldable (attached below)
Direct Instruction/Guided Practice:
Review bellringer
Guide students in selected problems in Quads in the coordinate plane guided practice (attached below).
Independent Practice/Collaboration/Differentiation:
Independent practice: various problems on foldable
Differentiation: Graphic organizers/foldable book, color-coding terms, cloze notes. One-on-one help for struggling students, accelerated practice for higher students.
Summarizer/CFU: round robin calling on students to describe the easiest/fastest way to prove various parallelograms on the coordinate plane.
Assignment: students will complete Quads in the Coordinate Plane practice (attached below).
