Instructions

Play through this interactive game to learn about Draw Shapes With Given Measurements. Suitable for Grade 6, Grade 7, Grade 8.

Main Concepts

Construct triangles from three measures of angles or sides.

Draw geometric shapes using protractors, rulers or other manipulatives with given conditions.

Construction of triangles includes given 2 sides and an angle or given 2 angles and one side.

Determine if a set of angle measures could be the interior angles of a triangle.

Discussion Questions

Before the Game

In the next game, you will use a ruler, protractor, and compass in order to help a robot plan space bases - what are these three tools used for? What kinds of measurements could you make about a triangle?

After the Game

How many sides and angles does a triangle have? What is the difference between SAS, ASA, and SSS? How would you solve a triangle with sides 4, 5, and 7? How would you solve a triangle with sides 3.5 and 7.1 and an angle of 49 degrees? How would you solve a triangle with a side measuring 8.9 and two known angles of 23 and 124 degrees?
