PROCEDURE
ACTIVATE/RECALL
TIME ACTIVITIES
10 Starter:
Pose a problem of measuring an angle and the size of a triangle
Recall about angle and how to construct a line.
Recall how to use the protractor to measure and draw an angle
DEMONSTRATE
LEARNING EPISODES
10 Ask students how to construct a triangle if they know all sizes of lines and angles.
Which factors that we actually need when constructing a triangle?
Introduce about included angle and how to construct a triangle when given two
sides and the angle between them (SAS).
Note for student that the included angle must be between two side when they
want to construct by SAS.
10 Introduce about included side and how to construct a triangle when given two
angles and the side between them (ASA).
Recall about the sum of three angles in a triangle. How to find an angle in a
triangle when knowing the other two?
Pose the problem of construct a triangle when given two angles and the side not
between them
o Encourage pupils to think of the case that they are already familiar with
(ASA) and how they can relate AAS to ASA.
o Challenge pupils to test their understanding by showing how they construct
an isosceles triangle with given one angle and one side.
CONSOLIDATE
5 Constructing a parallelogram:
Discuss how we might construct the a parallelogram given two sides and
an angle between them.
MWB activity - Challenge pupils to test their understanding by showing
how they draw a rhombus with side length x.
