Is a square a special case of rectangle?

The definition of square can determine whether it is a special case of a rectangle. Using the Cabri Jr. application, students can get a feel for why its definition makes sense. Along the way, they get experience with perpendiculars, parallels, measuring lengths, and an informal look at the inte...

NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Waste Not" - Sharpshooter

It is believed that an unusually high occurrence of cancer in a small area may represent a "cancer cluster." Because this is rare, it is more likely to be a case of "Texas Sharpshooting." For example, suppose a person randomly shoots a gun several times at the side of a barn and draws a circle ar...

NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Waste Not" - Different or Not?

In the episode, the FBI discovers that children in the area of a sinkhole seem to have an unusually high occurrence of cancer. FBI agent Megan Reeves believes that this might represent a "cancer cluster," but Charlie warns her not to jump to this conclusion too quickly. Students will use a statis...

NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "The Art of Reckoning" - Spies Like Us

In "The Art of Reckoning," Charlie discusses the security of a prison. "It's a hyper-secure system, but prisoners have nothing to do except think about how to crack it. Like two opposing armies." Charlie explains that analyzing such a situation involves determining the 'probabilities of penetrati...

NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Longshot" - Not So Great Expectations

In "Longshot," Charlie explains that the racetrack uses a pari-mutual betting system - the odds of winning vary with the amount bet on each horse. This system not only calculates proportional payoffs for the bettors, but also guarantees a profit for the racetrack owners by removing a percentage o...
