The Pirate Problem
The classic geometry problem developed in 1947 by George Gamow comes alive with the interactive platform of TI-Nspire. Will the treasure still be found after the palm tree in the treasure map disappears? What begins with inductive reasoning ends with a formal proof. This lesson, easily adapte...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-pirate-problem
Exploring Vertical Asymptotes
Students will be able to determine the domain of rational functions, use algebraic concepts to determine the vertical asymptotes of a rational function, determine the removable discontinuities of a rational function, and describe the graph of a rational function given the equation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-vertical-asymptotes
