Bengaluru South DIET Mathematics online course - Demonstration and hands-on Geogebra to teach BPT and Frustum

Objectives of workshop

 * 1) Familiarity with idea of congruence, similarity and  similar triangles
 * 2) Visualizing  BPT - If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle to intersect the other two sides in distinct points, the other two sides are divided in the same ratio. Logical proof of  BPT
 * 3) Visualizing area of Frustum of a Cone (3D)

Improve display of Geogebra on your phone

 * 1) Use in landscape mode
 * 2) Full screen our presentation
 * 3) Desktop option on phone
 * 4) If in difficulty, simply refresh the screen.

Session plan

 * 1) Congruence
 * 2) Segment, angle, triangle, quadrilateral, odd shaped figures
 * 3) Measures of corresponding sides and angles of congruent polygons will be equal
 * 4) Similarity
 * 5) Any circle is similar to any other circle.
 * 6) Same holds for Square - https://geogebra.org/m/ceapgrs5
 * 7) and Equilateral Triangles  and https://geogebra.org/m/kpww6afy
 * 8) Quadrilaterals
 * 9) Two quadrilaterals of the same number of sides are similar, if
 * 10) (i) their corresponding angles are equal and
 * 11) (ii) their corresponding sides are in the same ratio (or proportion)
 * 12) Triangle - https://geogebra.org/m/mdc43fbt
 * 13) if all angles of one are congruent with the corresponding angles of the second (AAA)
 * 14) if the ratio of three corresponding sides are equal (SSS)
 * 15) Concept of height of a triangle. https://geogebra.org/m/k56qc3hm
 * 16) The height of a triangle will be inside the triangle (acute angled triangle), outside the triangle (obtuse angled triangle) and on the side of the triangle (right triangle)
 * 17) Selection of side as base can change, but area (half * base *height) does not change
 * 18) BPT - If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle to intersect the other two sides in distinct points, the other two sides are divided in the same ratio.
 * 19) Draw few triangles and check that  this is true – visual proof  https://geogebra.org/m/nctk4smk
 * 20) Logical Proof of BPT - https://geogebra.org/m/pjdj65cd

Time plan

 * 1) Introduction to http://geogebra.org . Enable ‘Desktop view' and 'Landscape view' on phone – 15 minutes
 * 2) Demo and hands-on -  Congruence – 15 minutes, Similarity 20	minutes. BPT 20 minutes. Frustum of Cone – 10 minutes
 * 3) Closing  way forward + Google form – 10 minutes.

General Instructions for using the files

 * 1) Open Geogebra.org and login with id   Ganithageogebra,  password - geogebra123
 * 2) You can click on the link to open the file (or folder) on your computer or phone with Internet connectivity
 * 3) You can move the objects to coincide with the other object, by selecting the object and using ‘drag and drop’ of your mouse/cursor.
 * 4) You can also move the object by move the red point and rotating  with the yellow point on an object.
 * 5) Practice drag and drop using mouse cursor on the computer and your finger on your phone.
 * 6) Use the file in the sequence of “check boxes” (Tick  mark off/ on)
 * 7) Check box – click on it to ON. Click again to OFF
 * 8) When needed, move the “Slider” – Move to increase or reduce value of variable (like audio volume control)
 * 9) Uncheck a check-box when not needed or to reduce information on the screen
 * 10) You can download the file to your own computer, see the steps given in video https://youtu.be/ECFKjQXT6IE	 (see from 1.40 to 2.00 minutes)
 * 11) You can install Geogebra on your computer having Microsoft Windows and also on your android phone, through Google play (Geometry app)
 * 12) You can show in your class using the Geogebra  on your computer, or if you have connectivity, directly from the website, connecting to projector.
 * 13) Students can also see and play with these files on their own phone or using the computer lab.
