Aim: How do we classify and identify a solution of an equation? Homework Questions: Error Analysis: A student checked whether d = -2 is a solution of -3d + (-4) = 2, as shown. Describe and correct the student’s error. -3d + (-4) = 2 -3(-2) + (-4) = 2 -6 + (-4) = 2 -10 ≠ 2 X Writing: What are the differences between an expression and an equation? Does a mathematical expression have a solution? Explain. … [Read more...]
The Six Basic Constructions
This week in Geometry we will be using a compass and straightedge to perform the six basic constructions: 1) Copying a line segment 2) Copying an angle 3) Creating a perpendicular bisector 4) Creating an angle bisector 5) Creating parallel lines 6) Creating a perpendicular line through a given point When creating a perfect construction no numbers are involved. We do not measure, but rather we mark off distance by creating arcs (or congruent circles) using a compass. There are many videos on you tube that demonstrate each construction. For an animated tutorial: Click here or go to http://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/constructions.html … [Read more...]
