Definite Integral
Make visual connections between the definite integral of a function and the signed area between the function and the x-axis.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/definite-integral
Derivatives of Trigonometric Functions
Students will use the graph of the sine function to estimate the graph of the cosine function. They will do this by inspecting the slope of a tangent to the graph of the sine function at several points and using this information to construct a scatter plot for the derivative of the sine.
