EXPLORING ALGEBRA THROUGH

DIAGRAMS AND PICTURES

 

Algebraic equations are equivalent expressions.  Each side of the equals sign represents the same amount.  First, in this unit, we will explore algebra equations through diagrams of line segments and write algebraic expressions that represent the length of the line segments.  In addition, we will look at the idea of equivalence by using a set of scales, some cubes, and balls to model an algebraic equation.
