Reflective Property of Conics
This lesson involves investigating the properties of basic reflective principles of conics.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/reflective-property-of-conics
Ride the Rollercoaster
Students use polynomial regression to develop and assess the fit of equations modeling data. The equation models are then evaluated for reasonableness in their use for extrapolating beyond the given data sets.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ride-the-rollercoaster
Cryptology and Matrices
This lesson involves using matrices to encode and decode a message.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/cryptology-and-matrices
Coin Toss
Students will run two experiments that simulate pouring out coins from a bag.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/coin-toss
Transitions
In this activity, students review some basic relationships relating to the unit circle and apply these relationships in the conversion of a rectangular circle equation to polar form.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/transitions
Properties of an Ellipse
Students discover properties of an ellipse, such as the set of all points such that the sum of the distances from these points to two fixed points is constant.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-an-ellipse_1
Exploring the Parabola
Students explore the key features of the parabola, both geometrically and algebraically.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-the-parabola
Very Interesting
Students explore interest related to consumer loans, credit, and savings accounts.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/very-interesting
How Many? (Precalculus)
Students will be presented a situation in which they must use linear programming to determine the optimum production level to maximize profits.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-many-precalculus
Exploring Linear Equations
Students will enter "life expectancy" data into lists and set up scatter plots and trace the scatter plot to select two points. Secondly, they will use the points to calculate slope and write a linear equation. Finally, they will use the Transformation Graphing App to fit the data using a linea...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-linear-equations_2
Discriminating Against the Zero
Students explore when a graph has two zeros, one zero, and no real zeros. They will also determine when a graph has real, rational, irrational, or imaginary roots.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/discriminating-against-the-zero_84
One Sided Limits
Students will be given piecewise functions and asked to evaluate both the left-hand limit and the right-hand limit of the function as x approaches a given number, c. Using sliders, students will estimate the value of the missing variable that makes the left-hand limit and the right-hand limit equal.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/one-sided-limits_1
Conics In Winter
Students explore conic graphing using a polar notation equation and determine the effects the various variables on the graph.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/conics-in-winter
Application of Area Formulas
Students will be able to find the area of polygons by breaking a polygon into familiar shapes, such as triangles, rectangles, and trapezoids.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/application-of-area-formulas
Integers: Integer Builder
Drag positive and negative unit squares onto the stage and build integer additions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/integers-integer-builder
How Do Your Errors Grow!
A simple measuring activity allows students to explore the sometimes difficult concept of significant figures, both manually and with the help of the Science Tools App's Sig-Fig Calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-do-your-errors-grow
Segments in Circles
In this activity, students will explore the relationships among segments created by two intersecting chords, and secant segments. Students will store variables and use both the automated and manual data capture features in a spreadsheet and write formulas in spreadsheets to confirm relationships ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/segments-in-circles
Properties of Parallelograms
Students explore the various properties of parallelograms and the necessary and sufficient conditions that guarantee that a quadrilateral is a parallelogram.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-parallelograms_2
Vertical and Adjacent Angles
