Catch the web presentation, Slices of Pi, by Andres Marti. Slices of Pi provides you an opportunity to engage in Sketchpad activities that explore circles and use dynamic approaches to reveal the value of pi. In this webinar, you will:
- plot geometric measurements to derive the circumference-to-diameter ratio, then slice up a circle to derive the area formula
- explore simple animations that unexpectedly reveal pi
- investigate inscribed polygons, equations of circles, and the relationship between circles and ellipses.
