Triangle Sort

Description

This interactive Java applet provides practice in sorting triangles by type using a visual representation. Students drag scalene, isosceles, equilateral, right, and non-right triangles into Venn diagrams. Feedback on the students' choices is provided. An animated tutorial can be viewed first and at later times.

7 Learning Standards

1. Understand that shapes in different categories (e.g., rhombuses, rectangles, and others) may share attributes (e.g., having four sides), and that the shared attributes can define a larger category (e.g., quadrilaterals). Recognize rhombuses, rectangles, and squares as examples of quadrilaterals, and draw examples of quadrilaterals that do not belong to any of these subcategories.

2. Classify two-dimensional figures based on the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines, or the presence or absence of angles of a specified size. Recognize right triangles as a category, and identify right triangles.
