Students explore the concept of finding the volume of a solid formed by cross sections of a function that form certain shapes.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/volume-by-cross-sections
One Sided Limits
Students will graph piecewise functions and be asked to evaluate both the left hand limit and the right hand limit of the function as x approaches a given number, c.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/one-sided-limits
Integration By Substitution
Students explore methods for computing integrals of functions that are not in one of the standard forms.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/integration-by-substitution
