Geometric Distributions
Students simulate a geometric distribution of rolling a die to determine experimental probabilities and calculate theoretical probabilities.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/geometric-distributions_1
Density Curves
Students will be introduced to density curves as a simple analysis of a data set. They also will investigate where the median and mean lie on symmetric or skewed graphs.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/density-curves_1
Out of Control!
Students make XY Line Plots and scatter plots to create run charts and control charts (types of time plots) to determine if a manufacturing process is statistically stable. Students begin by looking for any unusual patterns or trends in variation and then calculate sample means and upper and lowe...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/out-of-control
Perms and Combs?
Review of the vocabulary and concepts of factorials, combinations, and permutations. Students use built-in commands to evaluate the expressions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/perms-and-combs_1

Trigonometric Ratios
Students discover the trigonometric ratios through measuring the side lengths of similar triangles and calculating their ratios. The formal definitions of the sine, cosine, and tangent or an angle are presented and applied to find the missing side lengths.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/trigonometric-ratios_1
What is Log?
In this activity, students will solve simple logarithmic equations and verify solutions using the corresponding exponential equations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-is-log
NASA - Diving Down Deep
In this activity, students will explore a method for adding air to a gas cylinder diving tank, and determine the amount of gas needed by a support diver during a diving session.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--diving-down-deep
How High Will it Bounce?
Students collect the height versus time data of a bouncing ball using the CBR 2™. They find the relationship between the bounce number and the bounce height. They also learn to graph scatter plots, calculate the maximum value of a parabola, analyze and find an exponential regression for the rebou...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-high-will-it-bounce

Exploring Hyperbolas
Students will explore the hyperbola by investigating links between its standard equation form and its graph. They will also discover the center and the focal lengths of the hyperbola as well as see applications of the hyperbola in the real world.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-hyperbolas
Discriminating Against the Zero
In this introductory activity, students explore when a graph has two zeros, one zero, and no real zeros. They will also determine when a graph has real, rational, irrational, or imaginary roots. The teacher should then follow up with a formal discussion on the discriminant.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/discriminating-against-the-zero
