Stacking Bricks - 84

This activity presents a real-world situation--stacking bricks in a pile--that can be modeled by a polynomial function. Students create a small table to show how the number of bricks relates to the number of rows, and calculate the first, second, and third differences of the data. Next they use t...

Reflections over the Axes

It is important for students to know what happens to the coordinates of points when they are reflected over the x-axis or the y-axis. This activity enables students to use Cabri Jr. to develop this understanding.

Special Segments in Triangles

Students will construct and explore medians, altitudes, angle bisectors, and perpendicular bisectors of triangles. They then drag the vertices to see where the intersections of the segments lie in relation to the triangle, and they measure distances to identify relationships.

Estimating a Population Proportion

Students find the confidence interval for a population proportion by first finding the critical value and the margin of error.

Population Mean: σ unknown

Students calculate confidence intervals to estimate the true population mean when the standard deviation of the population is not known.

Secant Lines

In this activity, students will observe the slopes of the secant and tangent line as a point on the function approaches the point of tangency.

Limits of Indeterminant Forms

In this activity, students will graph f(x)=sin(x)/x in order to visually determine the limit as x approaches zero. They will confirm the answer numerically by tracing left and right limit points on a graph and looking at values in a table.

SSS Triangle Congruence

Students will: 1. Construct a triangle and measure its sides and angles. 2. Construct a second triangle with corresponding sides equal in length. 3. Try to alter the properties of their construction by moving the vertices.

Approximating the Area Under a Curve

In this activity, students will explore approximating the area under a curve using left endpoint, right endpoint, and midpoint Riemann sums.

Extrema and Concavity

Students learn how to find and label extrema using first and second derivatives, be able to inspect a graph and determine which extrema the function has, and be able to use trace, fMin, and fMax to verify the computed answers and find critical values for parametric functions.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/extrema-and-concavity

Transforming Relationships

Students assess the strength of a linear relationship using a residual plot and calculate the correlation coefficient and coefficient of determination to assess the data set.
