Can I Make a Triangle?

This TI-Nspire activity is for the Triangle Inequality Theorem. There are 3 problems that contain 3 segments each. The student tries to make triangles with these segments. They compare the lengths of the shortest to the length of the longest to see if the inequality is true or false. For the...

Angle and Perpendicular Bisectors in a Triangle

The students will examine where the perpendicular bisectors and angle bisectors of a triangle intersect. The students will circumscribe a circle around the triangle and will inscribe a circle within the triangle. There is a page at the end of each activity with the circle constructed if the s...

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...

Move Those Chains

In this activity, students will explore the Chain Rule. Students are asked to make a conjecture of the derivative of f(x) = (2x + 1)2 based on the Power Rule. They are then asked to graph their derivative function and compare it to the graph of f´(x). They will then examine "true" statements abou...

Introducing Absolute Value

This activity introduces absolute value from a data value perspective. Students examine data by comparing individual data points to the mean by finding the difference (positive or negative) and the distance from the mean. They then plot the distances vs. the differences and examine the shape of t...
