Introducing Absolute Value

This activity introduces absolute value from a data value perspective. Students examine data by comparing individual data points to the mean by finding the difference (positive or negative) and the distance from the mean. They then plot the distances vs. the differences and examine the shape of t...

Composition of Functions

Students will determine the resulting functions produced from the composition of two functions. They will explore the graphical representation of the resulting function and support the algebraic solution by determining if the graphs coincide. Additionally, students will evaluate two points using ...

Combinations

This activity introduces students to combinations. They derive the formula for the number of combinations of n objects taken r at a time by starting with a list of permutations and eliminating those that name the same group, just in a different order. From here they see how the number of combinat...

Living on the Edge

Students build a solution to a rather complex problem: Finding the edge length of an octahedron given its volume by solving two simpler problems first.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/living-on-the-edge_1

Constructing an Ellipse

Students will explore two different methods for constructing an ellipse. Students discover that the sum of the distances from a point on an ellipse to its foci is always constant. This fact is then used as the basis for an algebraic derivation of the general equation for an ellipse centered at th...
