Review based on: personal experience |
Appropriate for: introduction to a concept |
Other Comments: I think this will be a great tool to help students understand the Law of Sines ambiguous case. I will use it in the next few weeks and see how it goes over in the class. I have changed the labels so that side a is opposite angle A, etc. |
What math does one need to know to use the resource? trig functions |
What hardware expertise does one need to learn to use the resource? Some experience with Geometers Sketch Pad is helpful, but probably not necessary. |
What extra things must be done to make it work? I changed the labels of the segments so that the labels of the sides of the triangle match the angles opposite those sides. |
How hard was it for you to learn? Very Easy |
Explanation: I have experience with GSP, so I already knew how to use the tools. But even without GSP experience, I think it would be easy to use because it is designed well. |
Ability to meet my goals: Very Effective |
