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...

NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Soft Target" - Are You Sure?

In "Soft Target," Charlie uses Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), a multiple regression method, to predict the next terrorist attack. This method, like many others used to predict events, may use a tree diagram to visualize possibilities. The use of tree diagrams is seen in probability.
