Linear Equations for Which the Difference between the Coordinates is Constant
This activity allows students to explore situations in which points with a constant difference between coordinates are graphed. With TI-Navigator?s display, students can determine that an oblique line is formed from such points. This oblique line always has intercepts equal to the constant diff...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/linear-equations-for-which-the-difference-between-the-coordinates-is-constant
Asymptotes & Zeros
Students relate the graph of a rational function to the graphs of the polynomial functions of its numerator and denominator. Students graph these polynomials one at a time and identify their y-intercepts and zeros. Using the handheld's manual manipulation functions, students can manipulate the gr...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/asymptotes--zeros_1
The Quest for Roots of Higher Order Equations
Students learn how to approximate the roots of any polynomial equation of any order by first using tables, and then by tracing along the graph to the point where the curve intersectshttps://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-quest-for-roots-of-higher-order-equations
Interval Notation
This StudyCards™ stack is a teaching activity on understanding interval notation. It uses functions and function behaviors as the context for needing and using interval notation. Use with Foundations for College Mathematics, Ch. 1.3.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/interval-notation
Domain and Range
This StudyCards™ stack uses real-world contexts to teach the concepts of independent and dependent variables, and then domain and range. It includes practical examples at the end. Use with Foundations for College Mathematics, Ch. 2.2, 3.1.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/domain-and-range
Distance and Midpoint Formulas
Self checking using the attached LearningCheck™ .edc file. These six questions, maybe used for class warmup, review, or checking for understanding.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/distance-and-midpoint-formulas
Direct Variation with Powers: Surface Area and Volume
Students find the approximate surface area and volume of an apple, measuring circumference 3 ways, using the mean of the measurements to find the radius. Each students enters the results in a Table on the board.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/direct-variation-with-powers-surface-area-and-volume
Constructing an Ellipse
Students explore two different methods for constructing an ellipse.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/constructing-an-ellipse
Buying Your First New Car!
With a high interest topic, this activity graphs an exponential "decay" (depreciation) with a linear graph (car payments) and finds the intersection between the two graphs. Students groan when they watch their new cars "decay."https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/buying-your-first-new-car
Solve Square Root Equation
This StudyCards™ set begins with "what is an equation?" and continues with developing the connection between points on the graph of the related function and a solution to an equation. Use with Foundations for College Mathematics, ch. 8-5.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/solve-square-root-equation
Scatterplots and Correlation with TI-83
Students learn how to enter a list of data and use these lists to graph two-variable statistics. They learn how to analyze the resulting scatterplots to assess the correlation between two variables.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/scatterplots-and-correlation-with-ti83
Absolutely Wonderful
The activity uses Cabri Jr. and TI-Navigator™ to explore the angle between the branches of an absolute value function. By the end of the activity, absolute value functions will be connected to trigonometry. This activity can be used in an algebra 2/pre-calculus course where students are already...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/absolutely-wonderful
Behaviors-Square Root Functions
