Math Lesson- Geometric Mean in Right Triangles Manipulatives and Practice!

Mathspiration
For grades 8-12

Geometric Mean in Right Triangles Manipulatives and Practice!
Many students struggle with finding the geometric mean in a right triangle. Students struggle with seeing the relationships between the similar right triangles formed by the altitude and the largest right triangle. These manipulatives allow students to not only see how the right triangles are really similar triangles, but they also help students to solve using the Geometric Mean. 

Included are: 

  • Printable double-sided manipulatives (so students can orient all three triangles in the same direction) and instructions on how to assemble them.
  • Fourteen practice problems for students.
  • The answer key to all fourteen questions. 
You can find this product in the Mathspiration store on Teachers Pay Teachers!
