G.R.P.3 Investigate and evaluate conjectures in mathematical terms, using mathematical strategies to reach a conclusion. 2
3 G.R.P.9 Apply inductive reasoning in making and supporting mathematical conjectures. G.CM.11 Understand and use appropriate language, representations, and terminology when describing objects, relationships, mathematical solutions, and geometric diagrams. G.CM.12 Draw conclusions about mathematical ideas through decoding and interpretation of mathematical visuals (Mathematics Core Curriculum, MST Standard 3, Geometry, March 2005). NCTM Standards: Analyze properties and determine relationships of two-and-three dimensional objects. Explore relationships (including congruence and similarity) among classes of two-and-three dimensional geometric object, and make and test conjectures about them. Establish the validity of geometric conjectures using deduction, prove theorems, and critique arguments made by others (Principles and Standards for School Mathematics, NCTM, 2000, Reston, VA). 3

Measure the angles formed by the diagonals. Record your findings: m DEC = m CEB = m BEA = m AED = Make a conjecture about the diagonals of any rhombus: Test your conjecture by dragging an angle. As the sides of the rhombus become larger (or smaller), does your conjecture about the angles hold true? How could you use your segment lengths (in steps #9 and #12) to verify your conjecture algebraically (ie. using a theorem or formula)? To show that your conjecture is true, demonstrate the algebraic steps below: 19
20 Summary: Including your lab. findings (and previous knowledge about parallelograms), list as many attributes or properties of a rhombus as possible below. Be specific! 20
21 Day #2: Now that you have constructed a rhombus, try to answer the following questions: What is the definition of a rhombus? How are the diagonals of a rhombus related? What special triangles do you see on your constructed rhombus? What kind of triangle congruencies do you see? (Be specific!) How is a square related to a rhombus? How do you think the diagonals of a square are related? Sketchpad directions: #1. Construct square ABCD. Does it have the properties of a rhombus? Measure the diagonals and angles to verify. What other special properties does it have? Make as many conjectures as possible about your square (include angles, diagonals, and triangles formed). #2. Check your conjectures by measuring the angles, diagonal segments, etc.. Then summarize your findings. 21
