Asymptotes and Zeros of Rational Functions

In this activity, students relate the graph of a rational function to the graphs of the polynomial functions of its numerator and denominator. Students graph these polynomials one at a time and identify their y-intercepts and zeros.

Ellipses with center at (h, k)

Students will put the equations of an ellipse with center at (h, k) in standard form. Identify the center, vertices, co-vertices, foci, length of diamter axis, and length of the minor diameter. They will graph the ellipses.

Is an equilateral triangle a special case of isosceles?

The definition of isosceles triangle can determine whether an equilateral triangle is a special case of an isosceles triangle. Using the Cabri Jr. application, students can get a feel for which definition makes the most sense. Along the way, they get experience with a perpendicular bisector, me...

Is a square a special case of rectangle?

The definition of square can determine whether it is a special case of a rectangle. Using the Cabri Jr. application, students can get a feel for why its definition makes sense. Along the way, they get experience with perpendiculars, parallels, measuring lengths, and an informal look at the inte...

Triangle Sides & Angles

Students will explore side and angle relationships in a triangle. First, students will discover where the longest (and shortest) side is located relative to the largest (and smallest) angle. Then, students will explore the Isosceles Triangle Theorem and its converse. Finally, students will determ...

Inference for Correlation and Regression

In this activity, students test if a significant relationship exists between a bivariate data set, and then calculate the confidence and predictive intervals. They also improve the interval-prediction capabilities by automating the process.

Hypothesis Testing: Means

Students test a claim about a mean with a large sample size at the five-percent significance level. The test statistic is found and compared to the critical value.

Shortest Distance Problem

This is a great follow-up to the Introduction to Properties in Reflections. Students may have trouble producing a scaled drawing. Using a scale of 1 to 5 works well. See the figure below for a possible scaled construction.

Law of Large Numbers: Adding It Up

In this activity, students examine the relationship between relative frequency and theoretical probability to understand the Law of Large Numbers. They will explore the concept of independent events. They will also discern the difference between relative and cumulative frequencies.
