Cosine Law — Mixed Configurations | 179 Versions, Self-Checking QR — High School

The recognition tier that closes the Cosine Law series. Each of the 179 unique versions is one problem drawn at random from the three configurations — SSS (find the angles), SAS (find the third side), and the multi-step classify/largest-angle/area task — so students must identify the configuration before solving. A full answer key is included. Because the configuration changes card to card, students cannot run one memorized procedure: they must read the given information and choose the right cos

Cosine Law — Classify, Largest Angle & Area (Multi-Step) | 179 Versions, Self-Ch

Tier 3 of the Cosine Law series — the multi-step capstone. Each of the 179 unique versions gives three sides; students classify the triangle (acute / right / obtuse), find its largest angle with the cosine law, and find its area with Heron's formula. A full answer key is included. The set deliberately mixes acute, right, and obtuse triangles so students must actually test the longest side against the sum of the other two squares — not assume. Three connected steps make this a strong end-of-topic

Experience

Stop answer-sharing, start deeper learning. Every product comes in 179 auto-varied, self-checking versions — each student gets different numbers, so the work reflects their own thinking. These are strategies I use in my own classroom and has a positive impact on engagement. I'm an educator with close to 35 years of hands-on experience across the entire K-12 spectrum. My career has been incredibly rewarding, from being an early years educational assistant to middle years generalist teaching all subjects, to specializing in high school mathematics, astronomy, and computer science. My journey has also taken me beyond the classroom. I've served as a school administrator, a district-level technology consultant, and a curriculum writer and reviewer for textbook publishers.

Teaching style

My teaching philosophy is built on the belief that students learn best when they are architects of their own understanding. I see my role as a guide, carefully creating the conditions for constructivist learning and exploration. In my classroom, I nurture students through experiences that prompt them to make their own meaning. I leverage technology as a powerful tool to extend our reach, allowing us to learn more deeply and efficiently. By scaffolding both learning activities and assessments, I meet students exactly where they are, using my deep understanding of the curriculum to ensure every learner can access the material and discover knowledge for themselves.

My own education history

My academic journey is rooted in a commitment to lifelong learning and understanding how students learn best. I began with a Bachelor of Arts (Psychology and Religion) from the University of Manitoba and a Bachelor of Education from Memorial University. My passion for modern pedagogy led me to pursue two master's degrees: a Master of Arts in Education Technology Leadership from The George Washington University and a Professional Master of Education in Inquiry from Queen's University. To stay current, I've also earned graduate certificates in eLearning, Professional Inquiry, and Education Assessment. This academic foundation is complemented by my practical work as a data manager and analyst for provincial education improvement projects, ensuring my resources are not just creative, but also evidence-based and effective.

Additional biographical information

Welcome! I'm a long-time educator and lifelong learner based in Winnipeg. I opened this store because I'm passionate about helping students see subjects like math as a playground of fascinating puzzles, not a list of problems to be solved. To do that, students need to talk, question, and explore. My resources are specifically designed to foster that environment. They are catalysts for collaboration, structured to naturally guide students into discussions about how they got an answer, not just what the answer is. My goal is to help you create a classroom where students learn deeply by thinking and discovering together. I'm excited to share these tools with you.
