The Triangular Box Problem (and Extension)
Student will discover the relationship between the height of a box with a triangular base and its volume and student will find the height that will produce the maximum volume of the open-topped box.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-triangular-box-problem-and-extension
Triangles and Slope - Is the Triangle Possible?
Students will construct triangles that match specific criteria. If it is possible to construct the triangle, the students have to construct the triangle and state the slope of each side. If the triangle is impossible to construct, the students must write a detailed explanation as to why it is im...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/triangles-and-slope--is-the-triangle-possible
Quadratic Yoga: Transforming Quadratic Functions
