The activity encourages students and teachers to engage in visual, creative thinking. We have coupled Mark’s activity with asking students to reason and be convincing, two important mathematical practices.
This activity allows students to explore number patterns within Pascal’s Triangle.
In this activity we invite students to be mathematicians and to find and study patterns in the world’s most famous triangle that has fascinated people for centuries.
Mathematics is a creative and visual subject!
Take it in turns to make a triangle on the pegboard. Can you block your opponent?
What are the possible lengths for the third side of this right-angled triangle?
Given an equilateral triangle inside an isosceles triangle, can you find a relationship between the angles?
Find the area of the triangle enclosed by these lines.
Use the information about the triangles on this graph to find the coordinates of the point where they touch.
What is the maximum area achieved during this process?
What is the smallest integer that can be the hypotenuse of two different right triangles, each of which has legs whose lengths are also integers?
