Angle-Side-Side Exploration
Does knowing two sides and a non-included angle of a triangle guarantee it is a unique triangle? This activity will allow students to discover the answer by moving a point on a triangle to determine if another triangle given the same sides and non-included angle is possible.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/anglesideside-exploration
Angles Formed by Intersecting Chords, Secants, and Tangents
In this activity, students will investigate properties of angles and arcs formed when chords, secants, and tangents intersect and intercept arcs in a circle. They discover several important theorems concerning circles and arc sizes. They make use of the Central Angle theorem, which ensures that t...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/angles-formed-by-intersecting-chords-secants-and-tangents
AC Circuits
Students explore a model of alternating electric current. They observe the effects of varying voltage, angular velocity, frequency, and phase shift on the shape of the waveform. They also calculate the relative phase shift between two waveforms. Finally, they create a model of a three-phase alter...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ac-circuits
Area of Rectangles with Fixed Perimeter
The students will construct several rectangles with different dimensions, all having the same perimeter. The area of each rectangle is then computed and plotted against the width of each rectangle. The students will discover that the area is a quadratic function of the width. They will also dis...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/area-of-rectangles-with-fixed-perimeter
Patterns in Division
Students investigate how the quotients and remainders from integer division relate to the quotients from rational number division in both fraction and decimal form.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/patterns-in-division
