Details for problem "Add missing line segment name for intercept theorem"

Quickname: 2896

Suitable for K-12 grades: Grade 7 Grade 8 Grade 9

Junior High School, Middle School, High School.

Summary

In a statement of the intercept theorems the missing line segment name has to be inserted.

Example

In a statement of the intercept theorems the missing line segment name has to be inserted. (Example for this math problem)

Description

A labeled drawing to illustrate the intercept theorems is shown. For this purpose, an equation is presented with respect to the ratios of side segment lengths to each other, which represents the application of a set of rays. One of the line's name has been replaced by a question mark ?.

The task is to identify the name of the fourth line, which is in the equation where the question mark is. If desired, a selection of line segments can be presented as possible answers; one of them is correct, the others lead to false statements.

Which theorems are tested is configurable. The figure is presented according to the queried ray-set: For the first and second theorem the figure has two straight lines or rays, for the third theorem three. The figure can be drawn in V-shape, X-shape, or in a random selection of both variants.

The inscription of the points can be optionally

The size of the drawing can be selected in several steps. The number of problems can also be configured.
