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...

When Is Tangent, tangent?

This activity combines the ideas of unit circle, and a line tangent to the unit circle to explain how Tangent (the trig. ratio) is related to the concept of tangent to a figure (from geometry). The intent is to briefly explore the mathematical history of the trigonometric ratio "tangent" through ...

Building curves

Students approach performing the basic operations on the polynomials from a graphical perspective. Given the graphs of two functions, they plot points that lie on the graph of the sum of the functions and draw conclusions about its behavior. Next, they calculate a regression to fit the points the...
