Properties of Parallelograms
Students explore the various properties of parallelograms and the necessary and sufficient conditions that guarantee that a quadrilateral is a parallelogram.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-parallelograms_2
Triangle Inequalities
In this activity, students will discover the Triangle Inequality Theorem and explore the possible lengths of the third side of a triangle given the other two side lengths. Students will also classify the type of triangle as acute, obtuse, or right using the Pythagorean inequalities.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/triangle-inequalities
Quick Start Guide: Temperature Change With the Vernier Temperature Probe
The Quick Start Guide highlight steps to get started with a TI graphing calculator and Vernier temperature probe, including connecting the probe as well as setting the temperature unit and duration. The guide also includes a sample experiment and questions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/quick-start-temp-probe
How Far Am I Off?
Students calculate a confidence interval using the chi-square distribution to estimate a population variance.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-far-am-i-off_1
Estimating a Population Proportion
Students find the confidence interval for a population proportion by first finding the critical value and the margin of error. They find confidence intervals for real-life scenarios and use those intervals to make a judgment about a claim. Finally, they use two formulas for finding the required s...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/estimating-a-population-proportion_1
