Is an equilateral triangle a special case of isosceles?

The definition of isosceles triangle can determine whether an equilateral triangle is a special case of an isosceles triangle. Using the Cabri Jr. application, students can get a feel for which definition makes the most sense. Along the way, they get experience with a perpendicular bisector, me...

Is a square a special case of rectangle?

The definition of square can determine whether it is a special case of a rectangle. Using the Cabri Jr. application, students can get a feel for why its definition makes sense. Along the way, they get experience with perpendiculars, parallels, measuring lengths, and an informal look at the inte...

Putt Putt with Python

In this coding activity for the TI-84 Plus CE Python edition, students will create a golf game.  The golf game gives the user two random points, one for the golf ball and one for the golf hole.  The user will enter a value for the slope.

Inference for Two-way Tables

Students use the chi-square test to analyze whether two categorical variables are independent or dependent calculating expected frequencies, the test statistic and the critical values.

Inference for Correlation and Regression

In this activity, students test if a significant relationship exists between a bivariate data set, and then calculate the confidence and predictive intervals. They also improve the interval-prediction capabilities by automating the process.

Law of Large Numbers: A Weighty Decision

In this activity, students will explore the Law of Large Numbers. By examining unfair models, they will expand their understanding of probability. They predict the weighting of an unfair model by analyzing experimental data and distributions. They will also formulate and test a hypothesis on the ...

Percentiles - IB

The goal of this activity is for students to use the area to the left of a value in a normal distribution to find its percentile. The process will then be reversed to find the value for a given percentile. In doing so, students will learn how to use the Normal CDF and Inverse Normal commands on t...

Perimeters, Areas, and Slopes - Oh, My!

Students create geometric figures, and use analytic and coordinate geometry to investigate their attributes. They go through the process of proving that a quadrilateral is a parallelogram.

NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Waste Not" - Sharpshooter

It is believed that an unusually high occurrence of cancer in a small area may represent a "cancer cluster." Because this is rare, it is more likely to be a case of "Texas Sharpshooting." For example, suppose a person randomly shoots a gun several times at the side of a barn and draws a circle ar...

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 ...

Perpendicular Bisector Theorem

This activity uses distance measures to investigate the relationship between a point in the plane and the distance to the endpoints of a segment. Students will investigate the implication these relationships have for the position of the point in the plane.
