On my slides 4, 5, and 6 found at 7-2 and 7-3 Similar Figures: Using Proportions to Solve for Missing Sides (Day 2) • Activity Builder by Desmos I have been struggling to maneuver a way to mark the slide as either correct or incorrect. When looking at slide 4, the answers from top to bottom are <P,…

I’m not sure if using patterns will be useful here. In the past, the second = makes this sort of unworkable without using many permutations of latex matching.

You might be better off using a different type of component as it’s not recommended to match latex. Is this something that you think could work for multiple choice or a card sort?

Here I made a graph to do some drag and drop matching. You could do something similar for the side proportions. [image] Matching

Daniel just posted while I was writing this, and I can tell already it is a better workaround than mine, but I am going to finish this post. These guys aren’t wrong, and both of them have been so helpful to me on this site, I am surprised they aren’t employed by Desmos. Or are they? Not wrong I m…

[image] Sian_Sleight: It bothered me that I couldn’t get \angle to show up in the code or use as an initial latex so the students had the symbol in their answers. Am I doing something wrong with it, or is it not included in the symbols? I copy/pasted after searching Google (I also saved a bun…

I was able to copy and paste it as the symbol ∠, and it shows up as the initial text in the math input. But then it won’t show as correct when I use this code: correct = this.latex = ∠P correct: correct initialLatex: ∠ So I thought it was the symbol, like when students enter 1/2 into math input…

Uh, that drag and drop is way better anyway. I am saving it for future activities.

Thanks so much @Daniel_Grubbs I love the matching idea! I have never looked into how to make a code for it to show students that where they dragged their tiles is correct. Any final advice on how to do that?

I integrated that into both matching graphs in the Corrections folders. Putting this in your graph CL should result in a dashboard checkmark: correct: this.number(`C_{orrect}`)=0 In the first, there’s one correct answer, although I thought the picture was a little ambiguous and may have chosen inc…

Sounds good! I am going to play around with it and then post my final result so anyone with the same question can see it.
