Points, Lines, and Distance
Investigate the distance between two points, a point and a line, and two lines.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/points-lines-and-distance
Exploring the Equation of a Circle
Explore right triangles and the Pythagorean Theorem to develop the equation of a circle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-the-equation-of-a-circle
Exploring the Geometric Means of a Right Triangle - When the Altitude to the Hypotenuse Is Drawn
Students will explore the concept of geometric mean and solve right triangle problems using geometric mean proportions. A TI-Nspire activity demonstrates interactively the geometric mean relationship, and an activity sheet applies the relationship to solve triangle problem. Most discussions of g...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-the-geometric-means-of-a-right-triangle--when-the-altitude-to-the-hypotenuse-is-drawn
Exploring Midsegments of a Triangle
Students will discover the relationships between a midsegment of a triangle and its third side.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-midsegments-of-a-triangle
Triangle Sum Theorem
Investigate the special relationship of the angles of a triangle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/triangle-sum-theorem
Can I Make a Triangle?
This TI-Nspire activity is for the Triangle Inequality Theorem. There are 3 problems that contain 3 segments each. The student tries to make triangles with these segments. They compare the lengths of the shortest to the length of the longest to see if the inequality is true or false. For the...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/can-i-make-a-triangle
Constructing Regular Polygons - Angles of Rotational Symmetry
This activity is designed to be used with the Geometry textbook "Math Connections - 2B" p. 295: #4https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/constructing-regular-polygons--angles-of-rotational-symmetry
Angle-Side-Side Exploration
Does knowing two sides and a non-included angle of a triangle guarantee it is a unique triangle? This activity will allow students to discover the answer by moving a point on a triangle to determine if another triangle given the same sides and non-included angle is possible.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/anglesideside-exploration
A Sprinkler System Activity for the TI-Nspire TouchPad
This lesson involves the student in constructing and then creating their own designs using circles to indicate water spray from sprinklers set to full, half, and quarter circle patterns. The students learn to appreciate the ART of Math in the designs created with the Nspire TouchPad. The students...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/a-sprinkler-system-activity-for-the-tinspire-touchpad
