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
Segments and Chords in a Circle
This activity is designed to allow students an opportunity to gain an understanding of the relationship among the segment measures formed by intersecting chords in a circle. It includes an interactive geometry page, some circle problems, and a Euclidean proof.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/segments-and-chords-in-a-circle
The Radian Sector
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
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
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
Similar Figures - Using Ratios to Discover Properties

Proving the Pythagorean Theorem - President Garfield's Proof
This is the same proof that is found on the TI-Exchange website for the 84 plus, but I modified it for the Nspire handhelds.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/proving-the-pythagorean-theorem--president-garfields-proof
Proving Angles Congruent
In this activity students will be introduced to proofs, including 2-column proofs, paragraph proofs and flow-proofs. They will also look at different diagrams to decide what the diagram is telling them and what they can infere. They will also look at complementary, supplementary, adjacent and v...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/proving-angles-congruent_1
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. There is a set of follow-up q...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/triangle-midsegment-exploration
Paths of Rectangles
This exploration for preservice teachers, looks at how the lengths of the sides of rectangles with equal areas are related. The rectangles are constructed so that one vertex is at the origin. The path of the opposite vertex is an example of indirect variation and demonstrates a connection between...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/paths-of-rectangles
