Tuesday April 8: I was away for an appointment today, so it was work time for textbook page163 #1-3 and Page 172 #3-15. If anyone finished all of that, my guest teacher gave them this More 4.1 Practice worksheet (here is the answer key).
Monday April 7: Welcome Back! We got back into things by finishing off lesson 4.1 in our Chapter 4: Trig Ratios of Obtuse Triangles Notes booklet. Then we went through lesson 4.2 in our Chapter 4: Trig Ratios of Obtuse Triangles Notes booklet. The 4.1 assignment is textbook page 163 #1-3 and the 4.2 assignment is Page 172 #3-15. You will have tomorrow as a work period for these two assignments. If you missed the class - here is the key for the 4.1 lesson notes and scroll to the bottom of this page for a link to a video of a 4.1 and 4.2 lesson.
Friday March 28: we went over the last question from Wednesday's Congruent Triangle Activity. Then we went through most of lesson 4.1 in our Chapter 4: Trig Ratios of Obtuse Triangles Notes booklet. If you missed the class - here is the key for the lesson notes. I left some of the examples on the last page of the lesson for you to try over the break. We'll go over them on the Monday when we get back. If you want to try the homework for this section, it is textbook page163 #1-3. I'll assign it officially on the Monday. If you want to play with the interactive unit circle for yourself, here is the link. Have a great spring break everyone!
Thursday March 27: Chapter 3 Test - if you finish with some time to spare, you can try the last diagram in yesterday's Congruent Triangle Activity. If you still need something to do you can try filling out the chart on the second page of the Chapter 4: Trig Ratios of Obtuse Triangles Notes booklet that I handed out once people were finished.
Wednesday March 26: we did the Congruent Triangle Activity. If you missed class and want to try it for yourself, you can work your way through this power point that goes step by step on drawing the triangles. No new homework for this activity besides the question I left you with at the end of the activity (the last diagram in the booklet and the question of AAA or AAS).
Tuesday Mar 25: we went over the Page 147 #3-5, 8-10 assignment questions. Then we had time to work on review questions from textbook page 152 #1-8 and if you want more practice than that, try 154 #2-12. Don't forget to make yourself a study sheet - I am NOT giving you a formula sheet for Thursday's test!
Monday March 24: we started by asking if anyone is stuck on any of the page 124 or 136 assignment questions. Then we had work time to do Page 147 #3-5, 8-10. If anyone is already finished these questions, work on some review from textbook pages 152 and 154 and get started on making the study sheet that you will be bringing into Thursday's test.
Friday Mar 21: we continued with a 3.3 ACC (Cosine Law) ( the file has a key). Once again, if you can't do these questions, you are not keeping up with the pace of the course and you can't expect to pass the next test if you don't turn things around. After that, we did pages 9-11, Lesson 3.4 in the Chapter 3: Using Trigonometry to Solve Acute Triangles Notes Booklet. Today's homework is textbook page 147 #3-5,8-10. You will get some work time for it on Monday.
Thursday Mar 20: we started with a few more minutes to work on textbook page 136 #1-7,9-11,13,15. Then we did this 3.2 ACC ( Acute Sine Law) ( the file has a key ). If you couldn't do these questions, you need to go back and catch up on homework or you will almost certainly fail the next test. We'll do a mini-practice-quiz like this for 3.3 tomorrow. We ended class by going over a few of the page 136 questions together.
Wednesday Mar 19: we started by going over some of the questions in the textbook page 124 #2-17 assignment. Then we finished up the examples in Lesson 3.3 of the Chapter 3: Using Trigonometry to Solve Acute Triangles Notes Booklet and then had time to work on textbook page 136 #1-7,9-11,13,15.
Tuesday Mar 18: we started with some more work time for textbook page 124 #2-17. Then we went back to the Chapter 3: Using Trigonometry to Solve Acute Triangles Notes Booklet and we started Lesson 3.3 where we derived and did the first couple of examples of the Cosine Law. We'll finish up that lesson tomorrow, but if you are finished all of the page 124 assignment, you can get started on page 136 #1-7,9-11,13,15.
Monday Mar 17: we went over the examples on the last two pages of lesson 3.2 of the Chapter 3: Using Trigonometry to Solve Acute Triangles Notes Booklet. We also did Example 3 from page 122 and #9 from page 126 of your textbook together. The assignment for lesson 3.2 is: textbook page 124 #2-17. The rest of the class was work time.
Thursday Mar 13: we corrected the rest of the examples that we didn't finish on Tuesday in the Chapter 3 Introduction - Right Angle Trig Review Notes. You should now be able to finish the Right Angle Trig Practice sheet. (here is the answer key). Then I handed out the Chapter 3: Using Trigonometry to Solve Acute Triangles Notes Booklet. On the first page we derived the formula for the SINE LAW and learned how to use it as we worked through lesson 3.2. Your homework for this part of the lesson is to finish the examples on the last two pages of lesson 3.2. We'll go over them on Monday.
Wednesday Mar 12: Chapter 2 Test. Anyone who finished with time to spare can work on this Right Angle Trig Practice sheet. Here is the answer key.
Tuesday Mar 11: After a quick go-over of the two Chapter 2 reviews, I handed out this Chapter 3 Introduction - Right Angle Trig Review Notes. We went through the notes and the first few examples together.
Monday Mar 10: we went over the page 99 questions together, then had time to work on the 2.1-2.3 Review (here is the key for that) or the 2.4 Review (here is the key for that one). That work time would also be a good time to get your study sheet ready for Wednesday's test.
Friday Mar 7: we started with a mini-quiz (ACC) for 2.3. Then we had time to work on the 2.4 assignment: page 99 #1-3,6,7, or you could also work on the 2.1-2.3 Review (here is the key for that) or the 2.4 Review (here is the key for that one).
Thursday Mar 6: I handed back the chapter 1 test and we went over a few of the questions. At the end of the semester, I will drop the lowest test score from your average. BUT keep in mind that the material from all of the Chapter tests will be on the final exam in June. After that, we started class by going over a few homework questions from the textbook page 90 assignment, then we watched this video. Then we went through the 2.4 lesson on pages 19-20 of the Chapter 2: Properties of Angles and Triangles Notes Package. No new homework tonight, but now that you have seen how we should be doing the "prove" questions, you may want to re-try some of the page 90 homework from yesterday. If you want to start on the 2.4 assignment it is page 99 #1-3,6,7 - I'll give you some work time for it tomorrow. We'll use Monday as a review day and test Chapter 2 on Tuesday.
Wednesday Mar 5: we started with a mini-quiz (ACC) for 2.1-2.2. The file link has an answer key at the end if you missed class and want to try it for yourself. After that we had a little more time to finish the assignment from yesterday: textbook page 90 #2-5,7,10,13,14,15. If anyone is finished that, I will give them a 2.1-2.3 Review (here is the key for that) to work on.
Tuesday Mar 4: we went over some of the page 72 and 78 questions, Then we went back to the notes for Chapter 2.3 on pages 17-18 of the Chapter 2: Properties of Angles and Triangles Notes Package. Then we had some time to work on the assignment for this lesson, textbook page 90 #2-5,7,10,13,14,15. If anyone is interested in watching the rest of the cartoon I showed you a clip from today, here is the link.
Monday March 3: as promised, we had some work time for Textbook Page 72 #2,5,6 and page 78 #1,2,4,17,20. Then we discussed what "classical" geometry used to look like and watched at a video that answers the question, "what is the centre of a triangle?" If you missed class you can watch the video here. Then we started the started the notes for Chapter 2.3 on pages 16-17 of the Chapter 2: Properties of Angles and Triangles Notes Package. We'll finish the notes and examples on Tuesday,
Friday Feb 28: CHAPTER 1 TEST. If you finish with time to spare you can work on Textbook Page 72 #2,5,6 and page 78 #1,2,4,17,20. I'll give you more work time tomorrow if you finish the test early, and again on Monday, so you don't have to do any homework this weekend. Huzzah!
Thursday Feb 27: one more check in to see if the class has any Chapter 1 questions before tomorrow's test. Then one more SET game then we finished up the notes for lesson 2.2 in our new Chapter 2: Properties of Angles and Triangles Notes Package. If you missed today's lesson, the filled in version of the notes package is here. The assignment for this section is Textbook Page 72 #2,5,6 and page 78 #1,2,4,17,20.
Wednesday Feb 26: after another check in to see if anyone had any Chapter 1 questions (and another SET game) , we started notes for lessons 2.1 and 2.2, on page 10 in our new Chapter 2: Properties of Angles and Triangles Notes Package. If you missed today's lesson, the filled in version of the notes package is here.
Tuesday Feb 25: we spent a few minutes going through questions from the Chapter 1 review booklet. Then we started Chapter 2. We did some examples in the introductory section, pages 2-8 in the Chapter 2: Properties of Angles and Triangles Notes Package together. You can finish the rest of the examples that we didn't get to for homework.
Monday Feb 24: today was the last day I'll give you class time to work on the Chapter 1 Review Booklet. The 1.1 section has answers on page 6. To see the answers to the 1.2 to 1.6 sections, click on this answer key.
Friday Feb 21: we started with another SET game, then we went through some of the questions from the page 49 assignment. Then I handed out this Chapter 1 Review Booklet. We will work on this for a couple of classes and then do our Chapter 1 test on Wednesday of next week. I have an answer key for the 1.2 to 1.6 sections of the review here. We'll correct the 1.1 section together on Monday. Also, on Monday and Tuesday, we'll go over some of the puzzles I handed out on Wednesday.
Thursday Feb 20: After another SET game, we went through the questions from the page 42 assignment from Tuesday's homework. Then we had some time to work on the last three pages of the Chapter 1 Notes Package, then textbook page 49 #2-4,6-11,14. These should be done for tomorrow. If you want a break from the textbook questions, there's the puzzles I handed out yesterday.
Wednesday Feb 20: After another SET game, we figured out what is going on in this YouTube video (which is how to think about #4 from yesterday's homework). After that, we did the 1.6 notes in our Chapter 1 Notes Package and I handed out this Introduction to Sudoku puzzle and we went over it. The textbook assignment for this section is to finish the last couple of examples on the last three pages of the notes booklet, then do textbook page 49 #2-4,6-11,14. If you need a little break from the textbook questions, I handed out a 5-Triangle Puzzle, or the Logic Problem (here is the key), or the Tax Collector problem (here is the solution) and this practice Sudoku, (here is the key).. I'll give you some more work time tomorrow.
Tuesday Feb 18: We started with today's SET game. Then we finished up the discussion and examples and notes for Lesson 1.5 in the Chapter 1 Notes Package. The assignment for this section is textbook page 42 #3-5,7,9,10. We watched this little video and then, in addition to the textbook assignment, I want you to try to figure out what is going on here (if that link does not work for you, here it is on YouTube). The solution will be discussed tomorrow.
Friday Feb 14: Happy Valentine's Day! We started by going through the linear relations section of the grade 10 (and earlier) skill review package together. Then we went over the textbook page 23 and 31 questions from yesterday. Finally, we went back to the Chapter 1 Notes Package and went through the examples and notes for Lesson 1.5. We didn't quite finish the lesson discussion, so we'll finish it on Tuesday and your only homework for the weekend is to try to find the mistake or reasoning error in the last example we did (or did we really just prove that 2=0 !?)
Thursday Feb 13: we went over the trigonometry questions in the grade 10 (and earlier) skill review package together. Then we had more time to work on textbook page 23 #10-12, 15-17 and page 31 #1-5, 7,8,10,11,15. They should be done for tomorrow.
Wednesday Feb 12: We went through the factoring section of the grade 10 (and earlier) skill review package together, including how to use Desmos when you are stuck on a factoring question. Then we went back to the Chapter 1 Notes Package and went through the examples and notes for Lesson 1.4. The assignment for this section is textbook page 23 #10-12, 15-17 and page 31 #1-5, 7,8,10,11,15. You can have the rest of class to work on this today and I'll give you some more time tomorrow.
Tuesday Feb 10: we discussed the a,b,c,d,e questions in the last example of Lesson 1.3 in the Chapter 1 Notes Package. Then we had some time to work on the grade 10 (and earlier) skill review package. We'll start going over it tomorrow as we keep working through Chapter 1.
Monday Feb 8: since there was a mix up with the class coverage on Friday, I handed out this grade 10 (and earlier) skill review package today for the people who missed it. I'll give you some time to work on it tomorrow. Then we went over textbook page 17 #2 and page 22 #1,3,4. After that, I handed out a couple more pages of the Chapter 1 Notes Package and we did some notes. If you didn't finish a,b,c,d,e of the last example in Lesson 1.3, do them for homework. We will discuss them tomorrow.
Friday Feb 7: work time to finish page 17 #2 and page 22 #1,3,4. After that, my guest teacher handed out this grade 10 (and earlier) skill review package. Try as much of it as you can. Don't panic if there are parts of it that you can't remember how to do - we'll spend a little bit of time in each of the following week or so of classes reviewing these skills while we finish up chapter 1.
Thursday Feb 6: we looked at the conjecture that you made for the relationship between the number of points on a circle and the number of regions formed by its cords. We had a little more discussion about conjectures and proofs of their validity. We watched this video and this video. We figured out this webpage is "reading your mind". Then we had time to work on textbook questions: page 17 #2 and page 22 #1,3,4. They should be done for Monday.
Wednesday Feb 5: we started doing some notes from our Chapter 1 Notes Package. Today we did some definitions and examples (for homework, come up with a conjecture about the last example with the cords of a circle). For our first textbook work, I assigned the following textbook questions: page 17 #2 and page 22 #1,3,4. I'll give you time to work on them tomorrow. See if you can figure out how this webpage is "reading your mind"
Tuesday Feb 4: we started with a problem: is 8^x always going to be larger than 9^(x-1)? We found out the answer (thanks to an excel spreadsheet!). Then we looked at the climb to a prime game, which leads to more conjectures. Will my favourite (non-prime) two digit number climb to a prime? Will ALL numbers eventually climb to a prime? Here is a direct link to the prime number checker to help you play. The "climb to a prime" game explains why 13 532 385 396 179 is Mr K's favourite number. Just to show us that math isn't just about numbers we looked for patterns in shapes with The SET game.
Monday Feb 3: Welcome to Grade 11 Applied Math! Here is the course outline. We played a couple of games with 2 digit numbers (and learned about Kaprekar's constatnt and the Collatz Conjecture) while I assigned textbooks and tried get to know you a little bit. No homework yet! If anyone wants to use the HOTPO online calculator that I was using in class, here is the link. If anyone who is also taking computer science wants to have a try at coding a program to calculate it yourself, let me know!
