332 BECF (George R. Brown Convention Center)
Lead Speaker:
Anne Papakonstantinou

Handouts
  • Session 133_Papakonstantinou_Connecting Geometric Constructions to Mathematical Proof.pdf (78.4 kB)

  • Euclidean constructions provide opportunities for constructing proofs as justifications. Explore the relationship between Euclidean constructions and mathematical proof. Learn how to use a variety of construction tools, investigate their similarities and differences, and determine which are best for certain geometric constructions.
