Probability as Relative Frequency

In this activity, students use simulation to justify the concept of the Law of Large Numbers. They understand that as the sample size increases, the relative frequency of which an event occurs approaches the probability of that event happening. Students investigate the binomial and geometric prob...

Verifying Trigonometric Identities

The student will look at the different tools needed to verify trigonometric identitites including reciprocals, cofunctions, quotient, and Pythagorean identities. Students will also be introduced to the "Hexagon".
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/verifying-trigonometric-identities

Proof of Identity

Students use graphs to verify the reciprocal identities. They then use the handheld's manual graph manipulation feature to discover the negative angle, cofunction, and Pythagorean trigonometric identities. Geometric proofs of these identities are given as well.
