Constructing Similar Triangles
Students investigate three different methods of constructing similar triangles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/constructing-similar-triangles_1
Surface Area of a Cylinder
Students define right and oblique three dimensional figures and calculate the volume for prisms, pyramids, cylinders, and cones.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/surface-area-of-a-cylinder
Distances in the Coordinate Plane
Students will explore distances in the coordinate plane. After finding the coordinates of a segment’s endpoints, students will substitute these values into the distance formula and compare the results to the measured length of the segment. Then students will find the distance between the endpoint...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/distances-in-the-coordinate-plane_1
Shortest Distance Problem
This is a great follow-up to the Introduction to Properties in Reflections. Students may have trouble producing a scaled drawing. Using a scale of 1 to 5 works well. See the figure below for a possible scaled construction.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/shortest-distance-problem
Law of Large Numbers: Equal Opportunities
In this activity, students will use the Probability Simulation application to roll a fair die and explore the Law of Large Numbers. They will conduct probability experiments that involve tossing a fair die, graph the results, compare the experimental probability to its theoretical probability and...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/law-of-large-numbers-equal-opportunities
Law of Large Numbers: Adding It Up
In this activity, students examine the relationship between relative frequency and theoretical probability to understand the Law of Large Numbers. They will explore the concept of independent events. They will also discern the difference between relative and cumulative frequencies.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/law-of-large-numbers-adding-it-up
Perimeter of a Rectangel with Fixed Area
Students will investigate the relationship between the base of a rectangle with area of 35 or 36 and its perimeter.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/perimeter-of-a-rectangel-with-fixed-area
Angles in Circles
The student will use the Cabri Jr. APP to discover the relationship between inscribed and central angles in a circle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/angles-in-circles
Altitude, Median, and Angle Bisector of a Triangle
In this activity, you will construct special segments of a triangle named altitudes, medians, and angle bisectors, using their definitions. You will look at how an altitude, a median, and an angle bisector divide the area of a triangle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/altitude-median-and-angle-bisector-of-a-triangle
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Longshot" - Expected Value
In "Longshot", a man is murdered after the horse he bet on won a race. A notebook filled with horse racing data and equations is found on the victim. Charlie finds that the equations were designed to pick the second place finisher. He explains that the racetrack uses a pari-mutuel betting system,...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--longshot--expected-value
