Lab objectives and outcomes

Students will be able to identify the defining characteristics of a parallelogram (e.g., parallel sides, equal opposite angles) by observing changes during virtual manipulation.
Students will be able to demonstrate how manipulating the side lengths and internal angles affects the overall shape and properties of a parallelogram.
Students will be able to calculate the area of various parallelograms after adjusting their dimensions within the simulated environment.
