Points on a Line
Develop an understanding of the slope of a line.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/points-on-a-line_1
Using Sliders and Parameters in Linear Functions
Students will have the opportunity to see the impact of the slope parameter m on a graph of a line in slope-intercept form by using a slider or by changing the values of the parameter. They will have the same opportunity to manipulate b. Questions follow to determine the degree to which the stude...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/using-sliders-and-parameters-in-linear-functions
Inverse Trig Functions
This activity works backwards by giving students the inverse functions and having them discover how they relate to the original functions. By tracing along the inverse function, data is collected and then plotted on a statplot. The variables are then switched on the statplot. The new plot and ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inverse-trig-functions
Graphs of Linear Functions
Students investigate the connections between the points on a line and the equation of the line written in slope-intercept form.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphs-of-linear-functions
