Convergence of Taylor Series
A Taylor Series for a function becomes the function as the number of terms increases towards infinity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/convergence-of-taylor-series
Tesselations
In this activity students will explore what causes some regular polygons to tesselate. They will explore sketches of regular polygons, measure the interior angles, and test to see whether the shapes tesselate.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tesselations
Secrets in the Triangle
Students will use the geometry screens of the TI-Nspire™ to find points of concurrency by constructing the altitudes, perpendicular bisectors, and medians in triangles. The Euler Line will be found and extensions given.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/secrets-in-the-triangle
Tessellations
Students will explore tessellations of triangles and quadrilaterals. They will use the transformation tools of symmetry, reflections, rotations, and/or translations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tessellations_1
Segment Addition Postulate
The purpose of this handout is to provide students an opportunity to learn the keystrokes involved using the TI-Nspire and to verify the Segment Addition Postulate.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/segment-addition-postulate
Continuity and Differentiability of Functions
Students will manipulate piecewise functions to make them continuous. Once students create a continuous function, they will calculate derivatives to determine if the function is also differentiable.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/continuity-and-differentiability-of-functions

In this activity, students will explore properties of sectors. Students will derive the formula for the arc length of a sector and the area of a sector.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-radian-sector
Continuity and Differentiability 2
Explore piecewise graphs and determine conditions for continuity and differentiability.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/continuity-and-differentiability-2
Shortest Distance
Students will discover, through exploration, that the shortest distance from a point on a line to the origin is a measure of a perpendicular line segment. You will investigate this minimization problem and support the analytical explanations with interactive explorations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/shortest-distance
The sum of the interior angles of regular polygons
The students will construct triangles within regular-sided polygons to determine the sum of the interior angles. They will then, using statistics, create a linear regression to determine the relationship between the number of sides of a regular polygon and the sum of its interior angles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-sum-of-the-interior-angles-of-regular-polygons
Shortest Distances
Students will explore three situations involving distances between points and lines. First, the minimum distance between two points leads to the Triangle Inequality Theorem. Then, the shortest distance from a point to a line is investigated. Finally, students find the smallest total distan...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/shortest-distances
Side Length, Perimeter, and Area of a Rectangle

Experiment with segment lengths and angle measures.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sidesideangle-the-ambiguous-case
Concavity
Examine the relationship between the first and second derivative and shape of a function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/concavity
Putting limits on Pi
This activity has the students calculate the perimeter of inscribed and circumscribed regular polygons about a circle and then use the calculated values to determine pi.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/putting-limits-on-pi
Triangle Inequality Theorem
Given the measures of any three segments, will you always be able to make a triangle?https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/triangle-inequality-theorem
Triangle Midsegment Exploration
The activity has the students investigate the relationship of the midsegment to the third side of the triangle. In addition the students investigate the area of the smaller triangles compared to the larger one and uses the results to solve the "campground" problem.
