Trigonometric Proofs
Students will perform trigonometric proofs and use the graphing capabilities of the TI-Nspire for verification.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/trigonometric-proofs
Parametric Projectile Motion
Students will understand how changing the initial velocity and the initial angle change the path of a projectile. Students will be able to write the parametric equations for the path of a projectile.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/parametric-projectile-motion
Spring Training
Students explore parametric equations by finding the horizontal and vertical distances traveled by a projectile.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/spring-training_1
Exploring Ellipses and Hyperbolas
Students will explore two conic sections, ellipses and hyperbolas, both graphically and analytically.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-ellipses-and-hyperbolas
Properties of Ellipses
This TI-Nspire Activity examines the reflective property and the distance property of a ellipse.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-ellipses
Introduction to Conic Sections
This lesson involves observing how each of the conic sections is formed and connecting the locus definition of a parabola with the vertex form of a parabola.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/introduction-to-conic-sections
Linear Transformations
This lesson involves linear transformations from R2 to R2 represented by matrices. Note: R2 = R x R represents the set of all pairs of real numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/linear-transformations
Properties of an Ellipse
Students discover properties of an ellipse, such as the set of all points such that the sum of the distances from these points to two fixed points is constant.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-an-ellipse
Exploring Geometric Sequences
Students graphically analyze geometric series using graphs and consider the effect of the value for the common ratio and first term using sliders.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-geometric-sequences
Spring Training
Students will explore parametric equations by finding the horizontal and vertical distances traveled by a projectile.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/spring-training
Applications of Domain and Range
Determine domain and range in real-world situations. Writing and graphing equations to model problems. Recognize the meaning of domain and range in the real-world situations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/applications-of-domain-and-range
An Application of Parabolas
Students discover how the parameters of an equation of a parabola affect its graph and affect a real-world problem.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/an-application-of-parabolas
Count the Differences
Students are given data, asked to find the finite differences, and then use this to find a polynomial that models the data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/count-the-differences_1
Constant of Variation
Students explore how the constant of variation, k, affects the graph of direct and inverse variations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/constant-of-variation
Limacon Curve
In this activity, students will observe different graphs of polar limaçon curves. Students will discover four different types of limaçon curves and their relationship to the ratio of a to b.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/limacon-curve
