This hands-on activity is great to use for small group, for math centers, stations or whole group instruction. This is for lesson on solving missing side of a right triangle using trigonometric function SOH CAH TOA. There are 12 questions which can be solve using sine, cosine and tangent.

This product has two options.

Option 1 is a math relay.The students will create amaze by solving the missing side of a triangle. Each card has shaded squares that have the answers and unshaded squares which have the questions. Students can start with any card. He or she will solve the question attached to it. She then finds the card that has that answer and connects it to his/her card. Repeat the process until there is no more card left. The answer to the last card is on the first card. Your students will enjoy putting together the puzzle as they solve math problems. In a group, students work together to match their problems and answers and solve the puzzle. If they solve the problem correctly, they find the answer piece and continue working, but if they don’t, they must recheck their work and correct the mistake before they can move on. Also, the puzzle pieces are jumbled so you can have students cut them out without seeing the answers.

Option 2 is matching cards. If you cut the squares on the relay cards, the students can match the questions and their solutions.

Also, I included an accountability paper for students to show their work. All the keys are included.

I hope you enjoy this activity. Please leave a comment below.
