Stacking Bricks - 84

This activity presents a real-world situation--stacking bricks in a pile--that can be modeled by a polynomial function. Students create a small table to show how the number of bricks relates to the number of rows, and calculate the first, second, and third differences of the data. Next they use t...

Special Segments in Triangles

Students will construct and explore medians, altitudes, angle bisectors, and perpendicular bisectors of triangles. They then drag the vertices to see where the intersections of the segments lie in relation to the triangle, and they measure distances to identify relationships.

Estimating a Population Proportion

Students find the confidence interval for a population proportion by first finding the critical value and the margin of error.

Goodness-Of-Fit

Students test claims of whether given distributions "fit" theoretical distributions.

Parallel Lines Cut by a Transversal

Students will develop and strengthen their knowledge about the angles formed when parallel lines are cut by a transversal. The measurement tool helps them discover the relationships between and among the various angles in the figure. Students will draw parallel lines, draw a transversal, and expl...

Population Mean: σ unknown

Students calculate confidence intervals to estimate the true population mean when the standard deviation of the population is not known.

Transforming Relationships

Students assess the strength of a linear relationship using a residual plot and calculate the correlation coefficient and coefficient of determination to assess the data set.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/transforming-relationships

Sampling

Students learn about each of the four types of random sampling methods and use the randInt command to find each kind of sample from a given population.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sampling

Roll the Dice

Students compute sample spaces for coin flips, find the various probabilities associated, and graph the probabilities using the calculator.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/roll-the-dice

Binomial PDF Color

This activity involves binomial trials, distributions, and probabilities. Students can create the binomial distribution following the steps in Binomial_Pdf_Eye_Color_Create-84 document.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/binomial-pdf-color_84

Best Class

Students will create and explore a box plot and histogram for a data set. They then compare the two data displays by viewing them together and use the comparison to draw conclusions about the data.

Areas In Intervals

Students estimate and find a given area under a normal curve.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/areas-in-intervals_1

Pythagorean Proofs

In this activity, students will explore proofs of the Pythagorean Theorem. Students will explore the proof of the Pythagorean Theorem using area of squares, area of triangles and trapezoids, and by dissection. Students will then be asked to apply what they have learned about the Pythagorean Theorem.

Parallel Lines

This lesson allows students to explore what parallel lines are and how the equations for parallel lines relate to each other.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/parallel-lines

Dinner Party

In this activity, students investigate the total cost of a private party at each of three restaurants. They will model the cost of a party at each restaurant with the graph of a linear function.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/dinner-party

Exploring Slope: Slope on the Slopes

Students take a field trip to a local ski area(or simply a nearby hill) and calculate the slope of a hill at several positions.

Tri This!

Students investigate linear equations that form a triangle and determine which vertex is a solution to a system of equations.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tri-this

Trigonometric Ratios

Students discover the trigonometric ratios through measuring the side lengths of similar triangles and calculating their ratios. The formal definitions of the sine, cosine, and tangent or an angle are presented and applied to find the missing side lengths.
