Is an equilateral triangle a special case of isosceles?

The definition of isosceles triangle can determine whether an equilateral triangle is a special case of an isosceles triangle. Using the Cabri Jr. application, students can get a feel for which definition makes the most sense. Along the way, they get experience with a perpendicular bisector, me...

Is a square a special case of rectangle?

The definition of square can determine whether it is a special case of a rectangle. Using the Cabri Jr. application, students can get a feel for why its definition makes sense. Along the way, they get experience with perpendiculars, parallels, measuring lengths, and an informal look at the inte...

Triangle Sides & Angles

Students will explore side and angle relationships in a triangle. First, students will discover where the longest (and shortest) side is located relative to the largest (and smallest) angle. Then, students will explore the Isosceles Triangle Theorem and its converse. Finally, students will determ...

Inference for Two-way Tables

Students use the chi-square test to analyze whether two categorical variables are independent or dependent calculating expected frequencies, the test statistic and the critical values.

Independence is the Word

Students use a simulation to find the experimental probability of independent events.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/independence-is-the-word_1

Hypothesis Testing: Means

Students test a claim about a mean with a large sample size at the five-percent significance level. The test statistic is found and compared to the critical value.

Percentiles - IB

The goal of this activity is for students to use the area to the left of a value in a normal distribution to find its percentile. The process will then be reversed to find the value for a given percentile. In doing so, students will learn how to use the Normal CDF and Inverse Normal commands on t...
