Inscribed Angles

Students use animation to discover that the measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of its intercepted arc, that two angles that intercept the same, or congruent, arcs are congruent, and that an angle inscribed in a semi-circle is a right angle. They then discover that the opposite angl...

Pi and Precision

Students will collect the measurements of circumference and diameter for four objects in their group. (Cup, Can, Mint Candy, and a Coin) They will then investigate the accuracy of their data colletion using a numerical table and a scatter plot. Students must observe how closely their measurements...

Scaling the Geometry

This lesson involves scale drawings of actual images on the TI-Nspire handheld.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/scaling-the-geometry

F Distribution

Students study the characteristics of the F distribution and discuss why the distribution is not symmetric (skewed right) and only has positive values. Students then use the Fcdf command to find probabilities and to confirm percentiles. They move on to find critical values and then compute a conf...

Scatterplot Pulse Rates

This lesson involves creating a scatterplot and fitting a line to student pulse rates collected before and after exercise.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/scatterplot-pulse-rates

Testing Claims About Proportions

Students find z-scores and critical values to test claims about proportions. To verify the results, they find P-values by either finding the area under the curve with the Integral tool, or by using the 1-Prop z Test command.

Square it Up!

Students investigate the method of least squares by adding the squares to a scatter plot and moving a line to find the minimum sum. Then they compare their line to the built-in linear regression model.
