3 Coding Activities for July Fourth Fun | Texas Instruments

...of vertices for the polygon. Int () is a python function that converts a number from the parenthesis to an integer. To make a simple polygon we use 360/n for the turning angle since the sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is 360 degrees. Notice this code multiplies the value r with 360/n —...

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...
