Geometric Constructions: Slope of Parallel and Perpendicular Lines DO NOW 10/13: How can we prove the laser is exiting parallel to the laser when it enters? Geometric Constructions: Slope of Parallel and Perpendicular Lines Agenda Performance Task Review Geometric Constructions: The Basics Construction Art Project Debrief
Geometric Constructions Ancient mathematicians did not have fractions. So they used constructions to determine partial lengths and degrees. Euclid was known to be the father or modern geometry, and developed many of the rules that govern how we can prove different theorems using constructions.

Geometric Constructions: Using a Compass and a Straightedge Two Tools: A straightedge ONLY used to draw lines and segments! A compass is ONLY used to draw circles! Definitions: Circle – the set of points equi-distant from a given center point Radius – the distance from the center to the edge of a circle *MUST BE IN NOTES!* Ex. “Circle A with radius AB”
Geometric Construction Art Project The Rules: Start near the center of your paper with a point A and draw a circle with center point A and radius of 1 unit. Draw a point B anywhere on the circle. Using the SAME radius as circle A, draw another circle using B as the center. At the point where those circles intersect (point C), draw another circle (KEEP radius the same! Repeat steps 3&4 Choose one circle. Connect all points on the circle to the center of the circle and to each other with line segments. Your Finished Project Should Have: At least 7 congruent circles At least 12 line segments At least 7 points Questions to consider (as you color) Are the segments congruent? Why? How do you know?
Debrief What shapes did we notice were formed (besides circles and lines)? Are there any patterns that we noticed appearing? Are the segments congruent? Why? How do you know? Did anyone get lines that appear parallel or perpendicular?
Construction 1: Parallel Lines DO NOW 10/14: What value of x will prove that the lines are parallel? Construction 1: Parallel Lines Agenda Review of Slope Construction 1: Steps Verifying Slope Algebraically Debrief
*MUST BE IN NOTES!* Review: Slope Formula Given two points as coordinates (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) the slope formula is the “change” (difference) in y divided by the “change” (difference) in x. m = y2 – y1 x2 – x1 Practice: Find the slope of line a and line b.
Construction 1: “Construct a parallel line through a point” Draw line PQ and a non-collinear point R (NOT on line PQ). Draw a line through point R that intersects PQ. Label the intersection point J. Construct a circle with center point J. Label the intersection points with JR point A and the intersection point with PQ point B. KEEPING the SAME radius, construct another circle at point R. Label the intersection with JR point C. (make sure C is not between JR!) Measure out another circle with a radius that is the length of AB. KEEPING the radius the SAME, move up to point C and draw the new circle. Label the point of intersection of the two circles point S. Draw line RS parallel to PQ! http://www.mathopenref.com/constparallel.html
Gallery Walk Trace over parallel lines PQ and RS and flip over your sheet to see the coordinate grid. Choose two points on each line (P,Q and R,S) and label the coordinates. Tape the construction on the wall. Using another person’s coordinates, you must use the slope formula to find the slope of both lines PQ and RS.

Construction 2: “Construct the perpendicular bisector of a line” Draw line PQ. Draw a circle with center point P that has a radius more than half the length of PQ. Using the same radius, move the compass to Q and draw another circle with center point Q. At the two points where the two circles intersect, label one point A and the other point B. Connect line AB perpendicular to PQ! (You can also label the point where AB crosses PQ point M, since it will be the MIDPOINT!) http://www.mathopenref.com/constbisectline.html

Quiz Part 2: Constructions Using the directions provided, construct either parallel or perpendicular lines. You CANNOT use the ruler or a protractor to measure, only draw circles of straight line. (Remember, we’re working ancient Greek tools here…) EXTRA CREDIT! Using either of the two constructions we have done with parallel and perpendicular lines, construct a rectangle. Must have the following properties 1. 2 sets of opposite parallel sides 2. 4 angles measuring 90 degrees 3. 2 sets of congurent opposite sides
Memory Card Game If you are finished with your quiz early and have completed your debrief, you may play the memory game Rules All cards start face down. Each player gets a chance to turn over any two cards. If they are a match (slopes are perpendicular or parallel) you keep the cards and keep playing. If they are not a match, you replace them face down and the next player goes.

(Make sure your radius is big enough!) Label the intersection closest to P point J. KEEPING the SAME radius, construct another circle with center point J. Label the intersection closest to Q point E. KEEPING the SAME radius, construct another circle with center point E. Label the intersection of circle R and circle E as point S.
