Students will then be asked to apply what they have learned about the Pythagorean Theorem.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/pythagorean-proofs
Dinner Party
In this activity, students investigate the total cost of a private party at each of three restaurants. They will model the cost of a party at each restaurant with the graph of a linear function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/dinner-party
Tri This!
Students investigate linear equations that form a triangle and determine which vertex is a solution to a system of equations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tri-this
Trigonometric Ratios
Students discover the trigonometric ratios through measuring the side lengths of similar triangles and calculating their ratios. The formal definitions of the sine, cosine, and tangent or an angle are presented and applied to find the missing side lengths.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/trigonometric-ratios
Zooooooom!
This activity uses times collected for a radio control car traveling certain distances to create a regression line to analyze and discuss as a class. If the car(s) cannot be obtained, you can use students to run the distances.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/zooooooom
Building a Garden Fence
In this activity, students will use basic concepts of perimeter and area to investigate a classic problem situation requiring maximization. They must decide how to build a garden fence to enclose the largest possible area.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/building-a-garden-fence
