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
Proving Angles Congruent
In this activity students will be introduced to proofs, including 2-column proofs, paragraph proofs and flow-proofs. They will also look at different diagrams to decide what the diagram is telling them and what they can infere. They will also look at complementary, supplementary, adjacent and v...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/proving-angles-congruent_1
