Ratios of Similar Triangles

In this activity, students will explore two ways of comparing side lengths of similar triangles. They will calculate ratios and change the triangles to see how the ratio changes. Then they will write proportions using the ratios.

Perpendicular Slopes

Students investigate the 'negative reciprocal' relationship between the slopes of perpendicular lines. The final phase of the activity is appropriate for more advanced students as they are led through an algebraic proof of the relationship. Optional geometric activities (problems 5 and 6 of the ....

Standard Error and Sampling Means

This lesson involves investigating the relationship between the standard deviation of a population, the area of a set of rectangles, and the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample mean areas of the rectangles.

Looking Normal

This lesson involves examining multiple samples taken from a single approximately normal population.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/looking-normal

Random Samples

Compare the results of the three estimation methods to show that random samples of rectangles provide estimates that, on average, are closer to the true population mean than the other two methods.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/random-samples

Resampling

This lesson involves approximate sampling distributions obtained from simulations based directly on a single sample. The focus of the lesson is on conducting hypothesis tests in situations for which the conditions of more traditional methods are not met.
