1 math lib activity Created by: ALL THINGS ALGEBRA

2 Angle of Elevation & Depression Math Lib Activity! Objective: To practice solving problems that relate the angle of elevation and depression. Students must have a basic understanding of sine, cosine, and tangent. This activity was created for a high school level geometry class. Activity Directions: Print and post the ten stations around the room. Give each student the worksheet to record their work as they travel to the stations. Group students (I typically do groups of 3) and assign to a starting problem. Set the timer for 3:30 minutes (more if needed). Students solve the problem at the station, then look for their answer and record the piece to the story. When the timer goes off, they move to the next station. You will be able to edit the first slide to change the names to teachers in your own school. They enjoy seeing which one of their teachers is the star of the story! 10 Stations & Student Worksheet Included First station is editable to change teacher names! Gina Wilson (All Things Algebra), 2014

3 Angle of Elevation & Depression Math Lib Activity! Directions: Solve the problem at each station. Identify your answer and fill in the blanks on the back to complete the math lib story! Gina Wilson (All Things Algebra), 2014
