Written Response: Three points A(2, 3), B(6, 7), and C(4, 11) form a triangle.
What is the area of triangle ABC?
(Graph it or use coordinate formula -correctly- for extra points)
12 square units.
Written Response: A triangle has side lengths 7 cm, 24 cm, and 25 cm.
Prove whether this triangle is a right triangle. Show your work and explain why or why not.
Yes, this is a right triangle. (Pythagorean Theorem)
Written Response: Two parallel lines are cut by a transversal. One of the angles formed is 65°.
Find all the types of angles that are also 65°, name them (using angle relationships), and explain why.
(Drawing a picture/diagram is suggested)
When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, angle relationships form. If one angle is 65°, then:
→ So, four different types of angles are 65°: vertical, corresponding, alternate interior, and alternate exterior.
Teams may earn partial credit for the amount of correct terms they identify in their answer. For example, 1 correct term - 1/4 credit. 4 correct terms - 1 credit. Explanations must be clear and include vocabulary -which is correct- and appropriate for their response.
