Supertall Skyscrapers
In this activity, students use their handhelds to measure scale drawings of famous “supertall” skyscrapers. They first check that the Sears Tower is drawn to scale and then use their measurements to calculate that scale. Next, they write and solve proportions to find the heights of other skyscrap...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/supertall-skyscrapers
Linear Equation Investigation
