Using Logical Reasoning to Prove Conjectures About Quadrilaterals
Given conjectures about quadrilaterals, the student will use deductive reasoning and counterexamples to prove or disprove the conjectures.
Gravitational Force
This resource provides flexible alternate or additional learning activities for students learning about the gravitational attraction between objects of different masses at different distances. IPC TEKS (4)(F)
Making and Verifying Conjectures about Lines
Students will investigate patterns and make conjectures about geometric relationships.
Making and Verifying Conjectures about Polygons
Students will investigate patterns and make conjectures about geometric relationships, including interior angles of polygons.
Making and Verifying Conjectures About Circles
Given information about the relationship(s) witnin one circle or a set of circles, the student will explore special segments and angles of circles.
Writing the Converse, Inverse, and Contrapositive
Given a conditional statement, the student will write its converse, inverse, and contrapositive.
Making and Verifying Conjectures about Three-Dimensional Figures
Students will explore volume conjectures and solve problems by applying the volume formulas to composite figures.
Constructing and Justifying Statements about Geometric Figures
Students will distinguish between undefined terms, definitions, postulates, conjectures, and theorems and investigate patterns to make conjectures about geometric relationships.
Using Counter Examples to Disprove Statements That Are False
Given statements about a geometric relationship, the student will use counter examples to disprove statements that are false.
Using Inductive Reasoning to Formulate Conjectures
Students will practice identifying the converse, inverse, and contrapositive of conditional statements.
Using Logical Reasoning to Prove Statements are True
Given statements about a geometric relationship, the student will distinguish between the undefined terms, definitions, postulates, conjectures, and theorems to prove the statements are true.
Using Properties of Transformations
Given examples of mathematics in the real world, the student will use properties of transformations and their composites to describe and perform transformations of figures in a plane.
