Key T3 Constructions
Instructions
- Use the Construction Protocol bar (located at the bottom right hand side of each Geogebra applet window) to fast-forward and rewind through the steps of a potential solution for the test.
- Check to see if the construction passes the drag test - drag vertices from the given information and watch how the construction changes.
Your sketches will be graded on:- a. accuracy (did they do what was asked)
- b. robustness (do they pass the drag test?)
- c. efficiency (don’t make extra circles!)
- d. style (Please measure relevant lengths, angles, etc). Color can make your sketch look good.
Below are sketches that hint at the final answer. Show all your circles and segments.1. Given 2 side lengths that make up a given angle, construct a congruent triangle using side-angle-side.
2. Starting with a point floating above a line, construct a square.
3. Construct a 30-degree angle. Confirm with the measure tool.
4. Start with a short and a long segment. Construct a segment whose lenght is the a AVERAGE of the two given segment lengths. Confirm with the measure tool.
