Supertall Skyscrapers
In this activity, students use their handhelds to measure scale drawings of famous “supertall” skyscrapers. They first check that the Sears Tower is drawn to scale and then use their measurements to calculate that scale. Next, they write and solve proportions to find the heights of other skyscrap...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/supertall-skyscrapers
Mystery Point!
Students will discover the nature of the 'Mystery Point' in a triangle. The Mystery Point is a triangle center, constructed through algebraic and vector means, so students can not "un-hide" the construction to discover the center. The students will have to test various center constructions to dis...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/mystery-point
Finding the Minimal Path to Put Out a Fire
A camper (at position A) must quickly put out a campfire (at position B). The river is represented by the horizontal line segment CD passing through point P. Where should point P be positioned on the river so that the camper will travel the shortest (minimal) path from point A, to the river at po...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/finding-the-minimal-path-to-put-out-a-fire
Investigating Properties of Quadrilaterals Using the TI-Nspire Navigator
Why spend time listing properties/theorems on the board when your students can be actively engaged in the discovery of such properties. This activity will make use of the TI-Nspire and the TI-Nspire Navigator to exchange files with the students handhelds. The Class Analysis feature of the TI-Ns...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/investigating-properties-of-quadrilaterals-using-the-tinspire-navigator
Inscribed Angles
The student will explore properties of inscribed angles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inscribed-angles
Inscribed Angles Theorem
Students investigate the relationship between inscribed angles and central angles, the Inscribed Angle Theorem.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inscribed-angles-theorem_1
Inscribed Angles
Students use animation to discover that the measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of its intercepted arc, that two angles that intercept the same, or congruent, arcs are congruent, and that an angle inscribed in a semi-circle is a right angle. They then discover that the opposite angl...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inscribed-angles_1
Inscribed Regular Polygons
Students will calculate the changing area and perimeter of inscribed polygons as the number of sides increase. The measurements will be recorded in a spreadsheet for analysis. Students will be learning to use the measurement tools and the Hide/Show function of the TI-Nspire. Students will be aske...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inscribed-regular-polygons
Intersecting Lines and Segment Measures
Explore the relationship between intersecting lines and the measures of various segments on those lines.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/intersecting-lines-and-segment-measures
Scaling the Geometry
This lesson involves scale drawings of actual images on the TI-Nspire handheld.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/scaling-the-geometry
Graphs of Polynomial Functions
The activity begins by having students compare functions to introduce the concept of end behavior. Then they graph cubics and quartics, noting the respective end behaviors for positive and negative leading coefficients. Finally, they compare quadratics to quartics and cubics to quintics to discov...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphs-of-polynomial-functions
Multiplication & Division of Functions
Students will determine the resulting functions produced from the multiplication and division of two functions. They will explore the graphical representation of the resulting function and support their algebraic solution by determining if the graphs coincide. Additionally, students will evaluate...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/multiplication--division-of-functions
Absolute Value
This lesson involves the family of absolute value functions of the form f(x) = a |x + c| + b.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/absolute-value
Law of Sines
This lesson involves exploring the relationship known as the Law of Sines.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/law-of-sines
Wrapping Functions
This activity introduces students to various functions of a circular angle. They are shown a unit circle and a point P that can be dragged around the circle. As the point is dragged, different measures are captured, including angle measures, linear distance, and the area of a sector. The activity...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/wrapping-functions
Kansas Chase Activity
In this activity, students will make predictions about how to win a Sprint Cup Championship.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/kansas-chase-activity
Roots and Cobwebs
