He explains that the racetrack uses a pari-mutuel betting system,...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--longshot--expected-value
Angles Formed By Parallel Lines
Students will use Cabri Jr. to construct parallel lines and transversals. They will make conjectures about the angles that are formed.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/angles-formed-by-parallel-lines
The Pythagorean Theorem And Classifying Triangles
Students will use the converse of the Pythagorean Theorem to predict a triangle's classification. The Cabri Jr. App on the TI-83+/84+ family will be used to create triangles and find their measurements.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-pythagorean-theorem-and-classifying-triangles
Triangle Inequalities
This activity will help students visualize the properties of triangles stated in the theorems. By dragging the vertices, the students can see that the properties hold regardless of the size of the triangles and which sides are the longest or shortest.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/triangle-inequalities_2
TI-83/84 Scavenger Hunt
A short activity that can be used to teach your students about the graphing calculator. Written by a student to ensure that students can understand it. Includes teacher's key.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ti8384-scavenger-hunt
REAL LIFE REAL WORLD Activity - Carpentry
Carpenters use applications of geometry in their work, including the properties of right triangles and circles. This activity uses Cabri Jr. Geometry software to make measurements and solve problems based on carpentry situations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/real-life-real-world-activity--carpentry
REAL LIFE REAL WORLD Activity - Forestry
Forest industry professionals make measurements in their work using tools including the Clinometer and the Biltmore Stick. These tools are based on the concepts of similar triangles and trigonometric ratios in a right triangle. This activity uses Cabri Jr. Geometry software to model and solve f...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/real-life-real-world-activity--forestry
Reflections
This activity will let students understand the concept of reflection.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/reflections
Evaluating the Products of Chords of a Circle
In this activity, the students will investigate if two chords intersect in a circle, then the products of the measures of the segments of the chords are equal.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/evaluating-the-products-of-chords-of-a-circle
Scrabble Math
Use the U.S. Constitution, Scrabble, and your graphing calculator to examine a number of statistical concepts with your Algebra 1 students.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/scrabble-math
NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "The Running Man" - The Eyes Have It
The FBI is investigating a robbery at the research facility of a large company. The FBI believes that the robbers were employees of the company, because they were able to bypass the iris recognition security scan and gain entrance. However, a security camera was able to capture a partial image of...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-2--the-running-man--the-eyes-have-it
Using the TI-83/84 to Explore the Binomial Theorem
This lesson will introduce students to the binomial theorem through a variety of activities. Pascal's triangle and probabilities will be explored through problem solving. The binomial theorem, combinations formula, and the binomial probability function will also be explored. Students will dis...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/using-the-ti8384-to-explore-the-binomial-theorem
Survey Project
Students survey other students (numerical and non numerical data) and calculate measures of central tendency (if possible) of data and make regular box-an-whisker plots and outlier box-and-whisker plots to analyze the data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/survey-project
