Wednesday, March 21st

First we are going to review yesterday's second handout. 

Then we are going to be watching a video on Parallel Lines and Transversals
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRm8Ai0x2OA


You need to add the following vocabulary words:


1.  Alternate Interior Angles
2.  Alternate Exterior Angles
3.  Corresponding Angles
4.  Consecutive Interior Angles


Then we are going to practice these concepts.

Bell Work:

We are going to finish looking at finding the degrees for missing angles.  The worksheet is titled The Angle Addition Postulate.


Then we are going to watching a video on Parallel Lines and Transversals

You need to add the following vocabulary words:

1.  Alternate Interior Angles
2.  Alternate Exterior Angles
3.  Corresponding Angles
4.  Consecutive Interior Angles

Then we are going to practice these concepts.

Monday, March 19th

Pick up new Bell Work Sheet.


Then you are going to need out a sheet of paper to take notes on.

We are going to talk about Complementary, Supplementary, Linear Pairs, Vertical, and Adjacent.

These vocabulary words should be written down.  We are going to go through a video that demonstrates the meaning for each of these.

Then we will be working on some practice sheets to make sure you understand the meaning of each term.

Bell Work:

Turn in Bell Work when done.


Fluency Write today!


Then we are going to look at how you find the measurement of an angle using a protractor.

After watching this video you are going to find the measure of angles to the nearest degree on a worksheet.


Then you are going to draw out an angle with a given number of degrees also identify whether the angle drawn is acute, obtuse, right or straight.

Bell Work:


Then we are going to review our notes from yesterday on dilation
http://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/transformations.html  

You will need a graph sheet of paper to include an example of dilation.


Then we are going to look at what acute, obtuse, right or straight angles are http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=50eVno0s1DI&feature=related
(add this to your dilation notes from yesterday)

After that you are going to practice on a worksheet identifying the different types of angles.

Bell Work:
How do you determine if a triangle can be formed when you are given three side dimensions?

You are then going to be working with a partner looking at a variety of side lengths.  You will need to determine how many different triangles you can create depending on the side lengths that you have to work with.  This is Investigation 3.4 in your packet.

Then we are going to look at the concept of dilation.
Dilations
A dilation is a non-rigid transformation, which means that the original and the image are not congruent. They are, however, similar figures. To perform dilations, a scale factor and a center of dilation are needed. If the scale factor is larger than 1, the image is larger than the original; if the scale factor is less than 1, the image is smaller than the original.

Then we are going to practice a dilation of your own using graph paper.
