In today’s class, we will review quadrilateral properties and engage in collaborative learning. Students will analyze homework and discuss the exercise “Triangles to Quadrilaterals,” focusing on findings and conjectures. The lab session will allow time to complete portfolio pieces, including proofs and constructions. You will work with a partner to critique each other’s work, discussing completeness, neatness, and clarity. We will explore various quadrilaterals: trapezoids, parallelograms, and more, while identifying their unique properties. Let’s make today productive and insightful!

Today’s plan • Greeting • Hand in Test Analysis / Review Homework • Quadrilateral Properties Review • Lab • Clean-up
Last night’s Homework • Your assignment was: • Write up an illustrated report of your findings from the “Triangles to Quadrilaterals” exercise. • OR, prove one or two conjectures and do a detailed, clean write-up. • Find a partner. Review each other’s work. Ask: • How complete is the work? What’s missing? • Is the work neat? Easy to read? • Are statements correct and convincing? • What’s one thing the author is doing well? • What’s one thing to improve?
Quadrilateral Properties • What interesting properties can a quadrilateral have? • How do those properties relate to the various types of quadrilaterals? • Trapezoid • Isosceles Trapezoid • Parallelogram • Rectangle • Rhombus • Square • Kite • Dart
Properties of Interest • Two pairs of equal opposite sides • Two pairs of equal opposite angles • Diagonals bisect each other • Diagonals are equal • Diagonals are perpendicular • Two right angles • Two equal parallel sides • What properties does a parallelogram have? • What properties guarantee a parallelogram? • If we have a parallelogram, what properties make it a rhombus? Or a rectangle?
Lab • To the computer lab! Work on: • Finishing up your portfolio piece from last night • Proofs / conjectures • Constructions – call me if you want any initialed • Khan Academy problems
Clean-up / Reminders • Pick up all trash / items. • Push in chairs (at front and back tables). • See you tomorrow!
