Students should discover the rela...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/hey-ortho-whats-your-altitude
Concurrency & the Circumcenter
In this activity, students will explore the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle. Students will discover that the perpendicular bisectors are concurrent and that the point of concurrency is the circumcenter. Students should discover the relationship between the type of triangle and ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/concurrency--the-circumcenter_1
Breakeven Analysis
In this activity, students perform breakeven analysis using the cost and revenue of an enterprise. They will determine the relationship between fixed and variable costs, profits, pricing policy, and the volume of output.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/breakeven-analysis
Statistics for Math B
Students will determine the mean, median, mode and standard deviation of collected data. They will make a frequency histogram of the grouped data, both on graph paper, and on the TI 83+.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/statistics-for-math-b
Motorcycle Jump
This activity presents a scenario in which a motorcycle rider jumps off a ramp and travels along a quadratic path through the air.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/motorcycle-jump_1
Measures of Central Tendency Using Scientific Calculators
Concepts and skills covered in this activity include: Modeling mathematics in real-world problem situations Relating procedures in equivalent representations in different contexts Understanding and applying the measures of central tendencyhttps://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/measures-of-central-tendency-using-scientific-calculators
Breaking Up is Not Hard to Do
In this activity, students will split rational functions into sums of partial fractions. Graphing is utilized to verify accuracy of results and to support the understanding of functions being represented in multiple ways.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/breaking-up-is-not-hard-to-do_1
Stay Tuned Lab Sound Waveform Models
In this activity, students' will record the sound waveform of a tuning fork and analyze the waveform to determine frequency, period and amplitude information. They will model the waveform using trigonometric functions. This activity has been modified for TI-Nspire with the data in the activity file.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stay-tuned-lab-sound-waveform-models
Exploring Linear Equations
Students will enter "life expectancy" data into lists and set up scatter plots and trace the scatter plot to select two points. Secondly, they will use the points to calculate slope and write a linear equation. Finally, they will use the Transformation Graphing App to fit the data using a linea...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-linear-equations_2
NASA - Diving Down Deep
In this activity, students will explore a method for adding air to a gas cylinder diving tank, and determine the amount of gas needed by a support diver during a diving session.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--diving-down-deep
Motorcycle Jump
Students will explore quadratic functions in the form of a motorcycle jumping off of a ramp. Students will maximize the height of the jump and the airtime of the jump.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/motorcycle-jump
