101/102 (Indiana Convention Center)
Lead Speaker:
Ewelina S. McBroom


Patty paper offers an alternative to straightedge-and-compass geometric constructions. In this activity, participants will use patty paper to construct perpendicular bisectors, angle bisectors, altitudes, and medians of a triangle. The activity will conclude with a construction of the Euler line.
