Isosceles Triangle

In this activity, students construct isosceles and equilateral triangles. They discover that if two sides of a triangle are congruent, then the angles opposite them are congruent. They understand that an equilateral triangle is also equiangular.

Exploring Quadratic Data

Students will analyze the vertex form of a parabola and find an approximate fit of a model. They will study the quadratic function (parabola) and its properties by developing quadratic models. They also use translation and dilation to change the general parabola.

Net Present Value and Internal Rate of Return

In this activity, students deal with cash flow and its present value, which is its worth in today's dollars. They will compare alternative investments by determining their Net Present Value and Internal Rate of Return. They will also determine, when called for, whether it is more profitable to le...

Hey, Ortho! What’s Your Altitude?

In this activity, students will explore the altitudes of a triangle. Students will discover that the altitude can be inside, outside, or a side of the triangle. Students will discover that the altitudes are concurrent. The point of concurrency is the orthocenter. Students should discover the rela...

Compound Interest

In this activity, students will calculate compound interest. They understand that in compound interest computations, the interest from the previous period is added to the current principal and the new total is used as the basis for calculating the interest.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/compound-interest

Loans- Days Between Dates

In this activity, students will determine the number of days between dates. They will find the amount due on a loan at the end of a term, which may be in days, months or years.
