Mind Map

The Mind Map displays the organization and relationship between the concepts and activities in this Learning Guide in a visual form. It is included to provide visual clues on the structure of the guide and to provide an opportunity for you, the teacher, to reorganize the guide to suit your particular context.

Stages of Learning

The following stages have been identified as optimal in this unit. It should be noted that the stages do not represent individual lessons. Rather, they are a series of stages over one or more lessons and indicate the suggested steps in the development of the targeted competencies and in the achievement of the stated objectives.

Assessment

All six Stages of Learning in this Learning Guide may include some advice on possible formative assessment ideas to assist you in determining the effectiveness of that stage on student learning. It can also provide information about whether the learning goals set for that stage have been achieved. Where possible, and if needed, teachers can use the formative assessment tasks for summative assessment purposes i.e as measures of student performance. It is important that your students know what they will be assessed on.

1. Activating Prior Learning

This stage aims to engage or focus the learners by asking them to call to mind what they know about the topic and connect it with their past learning. Activities could involve making personal connections.

Background or purpose

Students will plot points on the Cartesian Plane.

Strategy

THINK PAIR SHARE. This strategy allows students to think individually about an issue, question or problem and record response. Discuss ideas with a partner and record what they have shared. Share with the whole group or join another pair to reach consensus.

Materials

• manila paper

• masking tape

• graphing paper

Activity 1: “Plot and Tell”

(4)

2. Pair the students.

3. Let each student work individually then share and discuss the answers with his/her partner to reach a consensus.

4. Then, let them compare outputs with another pair.

5. Ask at least two volunteers to present their outputs to the class. 6. Process the activity through an interactive discussion.

7. Let the students keep their outputs for the next activity.

Formative Assessment

Monitor the performance of the students as they perform the activity. Check their outputs. Refer to the answer key on page 14.

Roundup

Students would have plotted points on the Cartesian Plane.

2. Setting the Context

This stage introduces the students to what will happen in the lessons. The teacher sets the objectives/expectations for the learning experience and an overview how the learning experience will fit into the larger scheme.

Background or purpose

Students will define and illustrate the different triangles and quadrilaterals.

Strategy

ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION. This strategy encourages group discussion. In groups, students write down their thoughts, solutions and ideas. A sheet of paper will be passed around the group. As each person reads, he/she initials if he/she agrees or leaves blank if he/she does not. When the paper returns to the owner, he/she reads ideas and reviews own thoughts to present an argument using new and different ideas.

Materials

• activity sheets (refer to Student Activity 2 on pages 15-16)

• crayons

Activity 2: “The Cutting Edge”

Instructions:

1. Organize the class into groups of 5 or as desired. 2. Provide each group the materials.

3. Tell each group to assign a problem to each member and write his/her answers/solutions on a sheet of paper.

4. After which, ask them to pass the paper around their group. Let them initial it if they agree on the answers/solutions or leave blank if they do not.

5. Ask the owner of each paper to review his/her answer/solution if there is no initial found on it.

3. Learning Activity Sequence

This stage provides the information about the topic and the activities for the students. Students should be encouraged to discover their own information.

Background or purpose

In this stage, students will verify properties of triangles and quadrilaterals using coordinate proof.

Strategies

INTERACTIVE LECTURE. This strategy provides the students with the general outline to give them the framework for thinking about a subject and to structure their note-taking. This type of lecture involves students by focusing their attention on key words. It

emphasizes information transfer at the knowledge, recall and comprehension levels of learning.

MATH TRAIL. As groups move from one station to another, they will solve challenging problems the soonest possible time. This strategy encourages teamwork and cooperation. This also enhances their mathematical/logical, bodily/kinesthetic and interpersonal intelligences.

Materials

• station number and problem strips (refer to Teacher Resource Sheet 4 on pages 18-21)

• thumbtacks

Teacher's Input

Begin this stage by asking students what properties of triangles and quadrilaterals they have listed in Stage 2 and ask the following questions.

1. When can you say that a given triangle is isosceles? 2. How will you prove that it is really an isosceles triangle?

Verifying Properties of Triangles and Quadrilaterals using

Coordinate Proof

(6)

Illustrative Example 1

To prove that the given figure in the Cartesian Plane is an isosceles triangle, we need to show that its two sides have equal lengths. To do that, we have to determine the lengths of the three sides of the triangle. This can be done using the distance formula.

Distance Formula

Given two points, P(x1, y1) and Q(x2, y2), the distance between P and Q is given by

PQ=

MODULE 21: PROPERTIES OF TRIANGLES AND QUADRILATERALS USING COORDINATE PROOF

Illustrative Example 2

To prove that the given figure is a square, we need to show that all its sides are equal in lengths and all the interior angles measure 900; that is, the two consecutive sides are

perpendicular to each other. Remember that a square is a parallelogram where the opposite sides are parallel and having equal slopes.

3. OR∥PQ OP∥QR

3. Lines/Segments that have equal slopes are parallel.

4. OR⊥OP

OR⊥PQ PQ⊥QR QR⊥OR

4. Horizontal lines have slope zero. Vertical lines have undefined slope. A horizontal line and a vertical line are perpendicular.

5. Therefore, OPQR is a square 5. All the four sides are equal and all the interior angles are right angles.

Now, present and discuss the proof of this next theorem.

= 32 cm + 45 cm + 32 cm + 45 cm = 154 cm
