Exploring Geometric Solids and Their Properties

In this interactive geometry investigation students will explore geometric solids and their properties. This investigation addresses the following geometry standards from the NCTM Prinicples and Standards for School Mathematics:

  • Analyze characteristics and properties of three dimensional geometric shapes and develop mathematical arguments about geometric relationships
  • Use visualization, spatial reasoning, and geometric modeling to solve problems

There are five parts to this i-Math Investigation, shown below.

Start the investigation with Getting to Know the Shapes
