Proving the central angle - inscribed angle relationship
Proving the central angle ā inscribed angleĀ relationship
When two secants intersect on the circle, it forms an inscribed angle. There are three cases in which the secants may be positioned as shown in the figure below. These positions form different cases for the central angle-inscribed angle relationship. So when you prove the theorem that the measure of the inscribed angle is half the measure of the central angle intercepting the same arc as theā¦

Six ways to give feedback to students to keep them in the task ofĀ learning
Assessment is embedded in instruction in two ways. One is what I call assessment in the service of teaching. The second is what I call assessment in the service of learning. Assessment in the service of teaching refers to the use of assessment information to improve teaching while assessment in the service of learning refers to the use of assessment information in the form of feedback to keep theā¦

Challenge yourself with this triangle problem. Squares were constructed around each side of triangle ABC. The free points of the square were connected forming three more triangles. It is claimed that all the four triangle have equal areas. Do they? Show that they do or donāt. Hint: Make a similar problem. UseĀ an isosceles triangle or right triangle for the triangle ABC.

How to orchestrate mathematical and productive classĀ discussion
Show and tell activity (aka lecture method) may work for some but never in a mathematics class. Getting students to explain and ask questions are nice but only when the explanation and the questions are mathematical. Reasoning and justifying are good habits of mind but they are only productive if they are based on mathematical principles.Ā Explaining, asking questions, and substantiating oneāsā¦

Reasoning abilities and concepts for learningĀ calculus
This post describes foundational reasoning abilities and mathematical knowledge the students need to develop before beginning a course in calculus. Covariational reasoning ā this involves recognition of two quantities that are changing together. A student who considers how two quantities in a dynamic situation change together is said to be engaging in covariational reasoning. This is aā¦

Can students learn math when we teach themĀ algorithms?
It is a bunch of procedures. Thatās how people perceive algorithms are. And they are right. Algorithm has been defined as 1) āstep-by-step procedures that are carried out routinelyā; 2) āa precisely-defined sequence of rules telling how to produce specified output information from given input information in a finite number of stepsā. Its no wonder then that teaching its algorithms is perceived asā¦

Teaching the Derivative Function to Grade 10
Teaching the Derivative Function to GradeĀ 10
Most Grade 10 syllabus do not yet include the concept and calculation of derivative. At this level, the study of function which started in Year 7 and Year 8 on linear function is simple extended to investigating other function classes such as polynomial function to which linear and quadratics belong, exponential function and its inverse, rational function etc. There is no mention of derivative.ā¦

Two lines intersect the graph . The secant line intersects the graph at point A and B and the tangent line at point E. You can read the coordinates of A and B from the graph but not E. What are the coordinates of E?
You can use calculus, that is, the derivative but this is a Year 9-10 problem. So, please solve it using the mathematics at these levels.
Happy Solving!!!

Application of theĀ Discriminant
The discriminant of a quadratic equation, ax2 + bx + c = 0 is D = b2 ā 4ac. If D>0, the quadratic equation has two distinct roots; if D<0, then the equation has no real roots; and, if D=0, the we have two equal roots. Letās apply it in the following problem.
What is the equation of the line tangent to f(x)=x2 at the point (2,4)?

Algebraic Expressions Divisible by 3
Algebraic Expressions Divisible byĀ 3
Problem
If a+2 is divisible by 3, which of the following expressions is/are also divisible by 3?
A. 3+2a
B. 5a-2
C. 8+7a
D. 1+5a
Solution
When a number is divisible by 3 then it is a multiple of 3. This means that a+2 is a multiple of 3. Hence, we can write a+2 = 3N, where N is an integer. This further implies that a=3N-2. So to test if an expression in ais divisible by 3, we just substitute 3N-2ā¦

When is it Algebra and When is itĀ Arithmetic
In the post Algebra vs Arithmetic, I distinguished between arithmetic and algebra by arguing that it has nothing to do with the use of letters. That algebra is about letters and arithmetic is about numbers is an oversimplified view of algebra and can create misconceptions. Here are additional way you would know if you are teaching algebra or not.

How to find an equation given the roots
How to find an equation given theĀ roots
This is what you do when you solve an equation of a quadratic equation like :
Solution:
=> (x-5)(x+2)=0
=> If x-5 = 0, then x = 5; if x+2 = 0, then x =-2.
The solution is x=5 or x=-2. If you solved the equation, these roots are of course the x-intercepts.
If the question is āFind an equation given the roots 5 and -2.ā, then all you need to do is to get the product of (x-5)(x+2) and equate to 0.ā¦
