Transformtions and Tessellations
In this activity you will construct a variety of transformations. In Problem #1 you will create a reflection of a pentagon, in Problem #2 a translation of a regular hexagon, in Problem #3 a rotation of a quadrilateral in two ways, in Problem #4 a dilation of a triangle. In each case you will ob...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/transformtions-and-tessellations
Triangle Sum Theorem
Investigate the special relationship of the angles of a triangle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/triangle-sum-theorem
Approximating Pi -- Archimedes method
Students will be assigned different regular polygons to construct. They will then construct a circumscribed circle, measure diameter, circumference and perimeter. The measurements will be placed into a spreadsheet and the ratios of circumference/diameter and perimeter/diameter will be calculated.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/approximating-pi--archimedes-method
Walk the Line
In this activity, students will be introduced to the CBR 2 motion sensor and the Vernier DataQuest™ app. They will collect and analyze both linear and non-linear data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/walk-the-line
Chi-Square Tests
In this activity, students will look at a problem situation that involves categorical data and will determine which is the appropriate chi-square test to use.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/chisquare-tests
Rectangle and Trapezoid Approximations to Definite Integrals
Use visual representation of area estimation methods in order to determine which is most accurate.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/trapezoid-and-midpoint-rules
How Much Does Bubble Gum Stretch a Rubber Band?
Students will conduct an experiment where they determine how much various quantities of bubble gum affect the length of a rubber band.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-much-does-bubble-gum-stretch-a-rubber-band
Application of Polynomials
Students use the volume formula to find cubic polynomials in order to determine the dimensions of four different-size boxes used for packaging trash bags.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/application-of-polynomials
Application of Linear Systems
Students will solve a real-world problem about parking cars and buses using a system of linear inequalities.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/application-of-linear-systems
