The Five Axioms of Geometry Lesson #2 The Five Axioms of Geometry

Lesson Goals SWBAT copy a line segment, using only a compass and straightedge SWBAT name and understand Euclid’s five axioms

Do Now: Pick a segment, any segment Draw a line segment on your page using your straightedge Assuming you couldn’t measure distances with your straightedge, how could you draw an identical line segment with just a straightedge and a compass?

Axioms: When you can’t prove it, just say it Euclid (b. ~300 BC) Wrote Elements, which is sort of a much more impressive version of Introduction to Geometry Started with five basic axioms What’s an axiom? Euclid apparently looked like Santa

No?

Five Axioms Any two points can be connected by a straight line segment. Any line segment can be extended forever in both directions, forming a line. Given any line segment, we can draw a circle with the segment as a radius and one of the segment’s endpoints as the center. All right angles are congruent [the same measure]. Given any straight line and a point not on the line, there is exactly one straight line that passes through the point and never meets the first line.

Any two points can be connected by a straight line segment.

Any line segment can be extended forever in both directions, forming a line.

Given any line segment, we can draw a circle with the segment as a radius and one of the segment’s endpoints as the center.

Given any straight line and a point not on the line, there is exactly one straight line that passes through the point and never meets the first line.

Angles, and how to measure them An angle is…

Make your own angle Draw two line segments on your page so that they share a common point Someone come up here and do the same… What tools do you have to measure an angle?

Some properties of angles What if… We know <BAC and <CAD, but we want <BAD? We know <BAD and <BAC, but we want <CAD? B C A D

Acute, right, obtuse Acute is… Right is… Obtuse is…

Parallel Parking Draw a line segment in your notebook (this can be freehand) To “parallel park” your line segment, it needs to move its own length in the same direction, twice its length at a 45 degree angle to your original line segment, and then its length in a direction parallel to your original line. Give your car directions from its original location with your protractor and construct this series of line segments in your notebook.

Lesson Goals Students will be able to define concurrent, circumcenter, circumradius, circumcircle SWBAT evaluate the circumradius of a triangle for all triangles and the special case of the right triangle

Perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle are CONCURRENT Lines are concurrent if they all meet at a single point The point at which the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle meet is called the circumcenter The circle centered at the circumcenter that passes through the vertices of the original triangle is called the circumcircle, which is circumscribed about the triangle The circumradius is the radius of this circle

Circumcenter of a right triangle Construct at least TWO right triangles in your books using a protractor and a straightedge Create perpendicular bisectors of all three sides for your triangles Where is the circumcenter in all of your triangles?

Circumcenter of a right triangle The circumcenter of a right triangle is the midpoint of the hypotenuse The circumradius is ½ the length of the hypotenuse Therefore, the hypotenuse is the diameter of the circumcircle

Do Now Construct a triangle and bisect two of its angles What can you say about the bisector of the third angle?

Key Vocabulary The angle bisectors of a triangle are concurrent at a point called the incenter The common distance from the incenter to the sides of the triangle is called the inradius The circle inscribed in the triangle is called the incircle NOTE: Each triangle has only one incircle, whose center is the intersection of the angle bisectors of a triangle

The Angle Bisector Theorem Given: Triangle ABC with BE its angle bisector Then: AB/AE=CB/CE B A C E

How to use Angle Bisector Theorem Find AC in the diagram A 12 C 7 D B 6

Results from bisecting an angle Distance from all three sides is equal at the incenter (note this was not the case with perpendicular bisectors) Therefore the incircle is tangent to each side of the triangle at just one point and is inscribed within the triangle

Finding the Area of a Triangle from its inradius Recall that all the perpendicular lines drawn to the sides from the inradius are equal in length Can you write a formula for the area of the triangle given an inradius of length r and side lengths of a, b, and c?

Finding the Area of a Triangle from its inradius The area of a triangle equals its inradius times its semiperimeter (s=(a+b+c)/2) Example: Find the radius of a circle that is tangent to all three sides of triangle ABC, given that the sides of ABC have lengths 7, 24, and 25

C B A D E F

Vocabulary The altitudes of any triangle are concurrent at a point called the orthocenter

Lesson Goals SWBAT define a trapezoid and the special types of trapezoids SWBAT find angle measures in a trapezoid SWBAT find the area of a trapezoid

Finding the area of a trapezoid Below is a trapezoid, a quadrilateral with (only) two parallel sides. Using what you know about the area of rectangles and triangles, find the area of the trapezoid 6 8 12

Area of a trapezoid If x and y are the lengths of the two bases and h is the height of a trapezoid ABCD, [ABCD]=(x+y/2)(h)=(the average of the base lengths)(height)

Finding the area of a trapezoid Find the area of the below trapezoid 13 7 4

Angles in a trapezoid Find the base angles in the trapezoid below: 106°

Trapezoids and Parallel Lines Most problems with trapezoids can be reduced to the facts about parallel lines and similar triangles we learned at the beginning of the year

Special Type of Trapezoids Isosceles trapezoids have: Two equal-length legs Congruent base angles Equal-length diagonals ANY OF THESE DEFINES AN ISOSCELES TRAPEZOID!

Lesson #28 Parallelograms

Lesson Goals SWBAT define a parallelogram SWBAT find that a shape is a parallelogram based on its diagonals

Do Now A parallelogram is a quadrilateral made up of two pairs of parallel sides Find x, y, and <C in the parallelogram below x+y 3x 30°

Prove: AE=CE Given: ABCD is a parallelogram A B E D C

The diagonals of a parallelogram The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect one another, as you just proved

Area of a parallelogram Find the area of the parallelogram below Hint: remember how we proved the area of a trapezoid 14 11 15

Area of a parallelogram Easy! A=bh Just like a rectangle (intuitive geometric way of showing this?)
