Engineering Your Own Spectrograph

Rating
0.0 stars

Students use simple materials to design an open spectrograph so they can calculate the angle light is bent when it passes through a holographic diffraction grating. A holographic diffraction grating acts like a prism, showing the visual components of light. After finding the desired angles, students use what they have learned to design their own spectrograph enclosure.

Grade 8 Module 7: Introduction to Irrational Numbers Using Geometry
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

Module 7 begins with work related to the Pythagorean Theorem and right triangles.  Before the lessons of this module are presented to students, it is important that the lessons in Modules 2 and 3 related to the Pythagorean Theorem are taught (M2:  Lessons 15 and 16, M3:  Lessons 13 and 14).  In Modules 2 and 3, students used the Pythagorean Theorem to determine the unknown length of a right triangle.  In cases where the side length was an integer, students computed the length.  When the side length was not an integer, students left the answer in the form of x2=c, where c was not a perfect square number.  Those solutions are revisited and are the motivation for learning about square roots and irrational numbers in general.

(Nota: Esta es una traducción de un recurso educativo abierto creado por el Departamento de Educación del Estado de Nueva York (NYSED) como parte del proyecto "EngageNY" en 2013. Aunque el recurso real fue traducido por personas, la siguiente descripción se tradujo del inglés original usando Google Translate para ayudar a los usuarios potenciales a decidir si se adapta a sus necesidades y puede contener errores gramaticales o lingüísticos. La descripción original en inglés también se proporciona a continuación.)

El módulo 7 comienza con el trabajo relacionado con el teorema de Pitágoras y los triángulos rectos. Antes de que se presenten las lecciones de este módulo a los estudiantes, es importante que las lecciones en los módulos 2 y 3 sean relacionadas con el teorema de Pitágoras se imparten (M2: Lecciones 15 y 16, M3: Lecciones 13 y 14). En los módulos 2 y 3, los estudiantes usaron el teorema de Pitágoras para determinar la longitud desconocida de un triángulo derecho. En los casos en que la longitud lateral era un entero, los estudiantes calcularon la longitud. Cuando la longitud lateral no era un entero, los estudiantes dejaron la respuesta en forma de x2 = c, donde C no era un número cuadrado perfecto. Esas soluciones se revisan y son la motivación para aprender sobre las raíces cuadradas y los números irracionales en general.

Rectangle Area and Perimeter. (Coordinate Geometry)
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that show the definition and properties of a rectangle in coordinate geometry. The applet has a rectangle with draggable vertices. As the user re-sizes the rectangle the applet continuously recalculates its width, height and diagonals from the vertex coordinates. Rectangle can be rotated on the plane to show the more complex cases. The grid, coordinates and calculations can be turned on and off for class problem solving. The applet can be printed in the state it appears on the screen to make handouts. The web page has a full definition of a rectangle when the coordinates of the points defining it are known, and has links to other pages relating to coordinate geometry. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector. This resource is a component of the Math Open Reference Interactive Geometry textbook project at http://www.mathopenref.com.
