Inscribed Angles
Students use animation to discover that the measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of its intercepted arc, that two angles that intercept the same, or congruent, arcs are congruent, and that an angle inscribed in a semi-circle is a right angle. They then discover that the opposite angl...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inscribed-angles_1
Proportionality in Tables, Graphs, and Equations

Claims About Two Proportions
Students test claims about two proportions by calculating test statistics, critical values, and P-values, for both one- and two-tailed tests.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/claims-about-two-proportions
Assessing Normality
In this activity, students will learn four characteristics of a normal curve: the distribution is symmetric and mound-shaped; the mean and median are approximately equal; the distribution meets the 68-95.5-99.7 rule; and the normal probability plot is linear. They will use these to determine if a...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/assessing-normality
Why t?
This lesson involves examining the variability of individual elements and their related standardized test statistics when those elements are drawn randomly from a given normally-distributed population.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/why-t
NASA - Rendezvous For Two
When the space shuttle launches from NASA Kennedy Space Center, it must launch within a certain time frame (called a launch window) in order to successfully dock with the ISS. Launch windows are calculated so that the space shuttle will reach an orbit that is slightly lower than the ISS, but in t...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--rendezvous-for-two
NASA - Space Shuttle Roll Manuever

Project leads to consideration of the feasibility of alternative energy options based on research and local data. Student activities culminate in the...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/when-the-wind-blows
Sound and Waves
In this lesson, students change characteristics of a sine wave to discover the frequency, amplitude, and phase shift. They will also use these properties to see the effect of adding two waves to form dampening and beats.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sound-and-waves
Linear Inequalities in Two Variables
Learn the basics of graphing linear inequalities.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/linear-inequalities-in-two-variables

Investigate and understand the symbolic language in the notation of functions used in mathematics.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/function-notation_1
Circles - Angles and Arcs
In this TI-84 family activity, students explore angles constructed in a circle and how their measures are related to the measures of the intercepted arcs.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/angles-and-arcs
Perpendicular Bisector of a Line Segment
Students learn to draw a segment and its perpendicular bisector. They understand right angles and congruent segments. Students observe that changing the length or orientation of the segment changes the perpendicular bisector. NCTM Geometry Standard covered: Analyze characteristics and properties ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/perpendicular-bisector-of-a-line-segment
Perpendicular Segments in a Circle
Students learn about chords of a circle. They draw a line perpendicular to the chord and passing through the center of the circle. They explore the lengths of the two segments of the chord. They investigate with a different chord and with different sized circles. NCTM Geometry Standard covered: A...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/perpendicular-segments-in-a-circle
Parallel Lines Cut By A Transversal
In this activity, students learn and increase their knowledge about the angles formed when parallel lines are cut by a transversal. NCTM Geometry Standard covered: Analyze characteristics and properties of 2- and 3-dimensional geometric shapes and develop mathematical arguments about geometric re...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/parallel-lines-cut-by-a-transversal_1
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Traffic" - What is Random
In "Traffic", Charlie lectures about randomness, explaining that 'our brains misperceive evenness as random and wrongly assume that groupings are deliberate'. In mathematics, we expect to see some clustering, or an occasional appearance of a pattern, when examining truly random events. In this ac...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--traffic--what-is-random
