There is a set of follow-up q...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/triangle-midsegment-exploration
Perspective Drawings
In this activity, students will draw figures in one- and two-point perspective, comparing and contrasting the two types of drawings. They then create an isometric drawing and compare it to the other drawings.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/perspective-drawings
Applications of Critical Points
Students will examine the relationship between critical points and local extrema through real-world examples. Students will zoom in on the critical points to see if the curve becomes linear to determine if the function is differentiable at the critical point. They will then discover that the sign...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/applications-of-critical-points
