Forensics Case 8 - No Dumping: Using soil characteristics to link suspects to a crime scene
In this activity, students measure pH, conductivity, and water absorbency of different samples of soil. They use these characteristic properties to identify soil samples. They use the physical and chemical characteristics of soil samples collected from suspects to determine whether a suspect had ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/forensics-case-8--no-dumping-using-soil-characteristics-to-link-suspects-to-a-crime-scene
Forensics Case 5 - The Ink Is Still Wet: Using colorimetry to identify an unknown ink
In this activity, students identify the ink of a ransom note to match suspects. They identify an unknown ink by its light absorbance characteristics. The experiment set up used is to measure a solutions absorbance of different colors (wavelengths) of light.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/forensics-case-5--the-ink-is-still-wet-using-colorimetry-to-identify-an-unknown-ink
The sum of the interior angles of regular polygons
The students will construct triangles within regular-sided polygons to determine the sum of the interior angles. They will then, using statistics, create a linear regression to determine the relationship between the number of sides of a regular polygon and the sum of its interior angles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-sum-of-the-interior-angles-of-regular-polygons
3D Parametric
In this activity, students will review the concepts of parametric and polar equations. By using the 3D graphing capabilities of the TI-Nspire handheld, students will be able to extend these ideas to the area of solids of revolution, arc length and kinematics.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/3d-parametric
Parallel Lines and the Transversals that Cross Them!
Students will explore the relationships between angles formed by parallel lines crossed by transversals. While there are other activities that may address similar topics, the questions presented to students in this activity bring a fresh perspective to student discovery.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/parallel-lines-and-the-transversals-that-cross-them
Positive and Negative Angles and Arcs
Investigate the relationships among the angles of intersection of the two lines and the intercepted arcs using positive and negative angle and arc measures.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/positive-and-negative-angles-and-arcs
Circle Geometry: Angles Formed by Intersecting Chords
This activity is intended to teach students about the rule associated with the angles formed by two chords intersecting within the circle and the intercepted arcs.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/circle-geometry-angles-formed-by-intersecting-chords
Constructing a Pentagon, An Alternative Method
