    Geometry - Construction Rubric and Details

    Uploaded by

    Ramon Gasgas
    This geometry project requires students to construct the angle bisectors, perpendicular bisectors, altitudes, and medians of four triangle types: right, isosceles, scalene, and equilateral. Students must use compasses and rulers to accurately draw the constructions on provided triangles and clearly label points of concurrency. They will also classify each triangle and describe the locations and names of intersection points. The project is due on either January 9th or 10th and will be graded based on the accuracy of constructions, labeling of intersections, organization, and answers to questions about triangle properties. Late projects will be penalized 20 points per day.

    GEOMETRY TRIANGLE CONSTRUCTION PROJECT

    Due Dates:

    A-day January 9, 2013


    B-day January 10, 2013

    Using a compass and straight edge (ruler) you will construct the angle bisectors, perpendicular bisectors, altitudes, and
    medians for 4 different triangles; a Right Triangle, Isosceles Triangle, Scalene Triangle, and an Equilateral Triangle. The
    purpose of this project is for you to have a better understanding of the properties of each of these constructions as well as
    the location of the points of concurrency.
    Project Directions
    1. You must use the triangles provided to you for this project.

    2. Construct the 3 medians, 3 altitudes, 3 perpendicular bisectors, and 3 angle bisector for each type of triangle
    3. All construction marks should be left on the paper.
    4. Use the provided key to identify each construction (ex. angle bisectors red, perpendicular bisectors blue, etc.).
    Easiest if you use colored PENCILS to do this. Sharpen your pencils to a good point for best results.
    5. All Points of concurrency clearly marked and labeled. (for each triangle)
    6. All congruent segments and congruent angles should be clearly marked as well as any right angles.
    7. For each triangle, in complete sentences: (to be hand written in the Description section of the template)
    Name and classify the triangle by angles and sides.
    Name the points of concurrency of the medians, altitudes, perpendicular bisectors, and angle bisectors for
    each triangle.
    Describe the location of the intersection (inside, on, or outside the triangle).
    8. Project should be in some type of folder and have a cover page with Name, Date, Period, and attach the given
    rubric.
    9. Project should be neat, accurate, and organized. All lines should be drawn with a ruler, and the vertices of the
    triangles should be labeled.
    10. Once project is completed answer the following questions: (write answers on attached rubric sheet)
    a) The angles bisector of a triangle is (sometimes, always, or never) the perpendicular bisector.
    b) The median of the triangle is (sometimes, always, or never) the perpendicular bisector.
    c) The altitude of the triangle is (sometimes, always, or never) the perpendicular bisector.
    d) The centriod of a triangle is (sometimes, always, or never) the circumcenter of the triangle.
    e) The altitude from the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is (sometime, always, or never) the median.
    f) The median of any side of an equilateral triangle is (sometimes, always, or never) the angle bisector.
    g) The altitude of a triangle is (sometime, always, or never) the angle bisector of a triangle
    h) The incenter of a triangle is (sometime, always, or never) the centroid of a triangle.
    Additional help with constructions is available in Ms. Hooffstetters room, 7116, at lunch on:
    Monday, December 17th
    Wednesday, December 19th
    Thursday, January 3rd.

    LATE PROJECTS WILL BE PENALIZED 20 POINTS FOR EACH DAY LATE. ON TIME MEANS YOU TURN IT IN AT THE
    BEGINNING OF THE PERIOD IT IS DUE.
