Accuracy of measurement in navigation depends very much on the situation. If a sailor's target is an island 200 km wide, sailing off center by 10 or 20 km is not a major problem. But, if the island were only 1 km wide, it would be missed if off just the smallest bit. Many of the measurements made while navigating involve angles, and a small error in the angle can translate to a much larger error in position when traveling long distances.

This is a task from the Illustrative Mathematics website that is one part of a complete illustration of the standard to which it is aligned. Each task has at least one solution and some commentary that addresses important asects of the task and its potential use. Here are the first few lines of the commentary for this task: Suppose $0 \lt a \lt 90$ is the measure of an acute angle. Draw a picture and explain why $\sin{a} = \cos{(90 -a)}$ Are there any angle measures $0 \lt...

Geometry Module 2: Similarity, Proof, and Trigonometry
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted

Rating
0.0 stars

Just as rigid motions are used to define congruence in Module 1, so dilations are added to define similarity in Module 2.  To be able to discuss similarity, students must first have a clear understanding of how dilations behave.  This is done in two parts, by studying how dilations yield scale drawings and reasoning why the properties of dilations must be true. Once dilations are clearly established, similarity transformations are defined and length and angle relationships are examined, yielding triangle similarity criteria.  An in-depth look at similarity within right triangles follows, and finally the module ends with a study of right triangle trigonometry.

This lesson unit is intended to help teachers assess how well students are able to use geometric properties to solve problems. In particular, the lesson will help you identify and help students who have the following difficulties: solving problems by determining the lengths of the sides in right triangles; and finding the measurements of shapes by decomposing complex shapes into simpler ones. The lesson unit will also help students to recognize that there may be different approaches to geometrical problems, and to understand the relative strengths and weaknesses of those approaches.

This lesson unit is intended to help teachers assess how well students are able to use geometric properties to solve problems. In particular, it will help you identify and help students who have difficulty: decomposing complex shapes into simpler ones in order to solve a problem; bringing together several geometric concepts to solve a problem; and finding the relationship between radii of inscribed and circumscribed circles of right triangles.

Módulo de geometría 2: similitud, prueba y trigonometría

(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.)

Así como se utilizan movimientos rígidos para definir la congruencia en el Módulo 1, se agregan dilataciones para definir la similitud en el Módulo 2. Para poder discutir la similitud, los estudiantes primero deben comprender claramente cómo se comportan las dilataciones. Esto se hace en dos partes, al estudiar cómo las dilataciones producen dibujos de escala y razonando por qué las propiedades de las dilataciones deben ser ciertas. Una vez que las dilataciones se establecen claramente, se definen transformaciones de similitud y se examinan las relaciones de longitud y ángulo, lo que produce criterios de similitud triangular. Sigue una mirada profunda a la similitud dentro de los triángulos rectos, y finalmente el módulo termina con un estudio de trigonometría del triángulo recto.
