Polar Coordinates - 84
This lesson involves a brief introduction to the polar coordinate system.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/polar-coordinates_84
Critical Points and Local Extrema
Visualize the connections between the critical points and local extrema.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/critical-points-and-local-extrema
Tesselations
In this activity students will explore what causes some regular polygons to tesselate. They will explore sketches of regular polygons, measure the interior angles, and test to see whether the shapes tesselate.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tesselations
Secrets in the Triangle
Students will use the geometry screens of the TI-Nspire™ to find points of concurrency by constructing the altitudes, perpendicular bisectors, and medians in triangles. The Euler Line will be found and extensions given.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/secrets-in-the-triangle
Tessellations
Students will explore tessellations of triangles and quadrilaterals. They will use the transformation tools of symmetry, reflections, rotations, and/or translations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tessellations_1
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
Continuity and Differentiability 2
Explore piecewise graphs and determine conditions for continuity and differentiability.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/continuity-and-differentiability-2
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
Concavity
Examine the relationship between the first and second derivative and shape of a function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/concavity
Putting limits on Pi
This activity has the students calculate the perimeter of inscribed and circumscribed regular polygons about a circle and then use the calculated values to determine pi.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/putting-limits-on-pi
Triangle Inequality Theorem
Given the measures of any three segments, will you always be able to make a triangle?https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/triangle-inequality-theorem
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
Derivative Grapher
Visualize the relationship between the graph of a function and the graph of its derivative function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/derivative-grapher
Derivative Function
Transition from thinking of the derivative at a point to thinking of the derivative as a function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/derivative-function
Transformers
Students explore a special subset of the transformations of a square called the symmetry group.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/transformers
Transformations With Lists
Students use list operations to perform reflections, rotations, translations and dilations on a figure, and graph the resulting image using a scatter plot.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/transformations-with-lists_1
Definite Integral
Make visual connections between the definite integral of a function and the signed area between the function and the x-axis.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/definite-integral
The Tale of Two Tangents
This activity allows students to investigate the relationship between the angle formed by two tangents to a circle and the arcs they intercept.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-tale-of-two-tangents
Derivatives of Trigonometric Functions
Students will use the graph of the sine function to estimate the graph of the cosine function. They will do this by inspecting the slope of a tangent to the graph of the sine function at several points and using this information to construct a scatter plot for the derivative of the sine. Students...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/derivatives-of-trigonometric-functions
