Polygon Area

Students will compare areas of different polygons with a fixed perimeter and find the shape that gives the maximum area
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/polygon-area

Heads Up!

In this activity, students study some important concepts of probability. They use coin tossing experiments to determine the probability of a tossed coin coming up heads. They examine both short and long term experimental probabilities and their relationship to the theoretical probability.

Which Trapezoids Are Special?

Cabri Jr. allows students to look at several kinds of trapezoids in order to see which ones are special. With this activity students can see that an isosceles trapezoid is a special one. In a parallel manner, students can see why a parallelogram can be considered a special trapezoid. This acti...

Visualizing Vectors

In this activity, students use the CellSheet™ Application to graph vectors. They also learn to find the sum of two vectors.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/visualizing-vectors

Probability Simulations

In this activity, students use the random integer (randInt) command to simulate probability experiments. They also graph the number of trials and corresponding probabilities to observe the Law of Large Numbers. Simulated experiments involve tossing a coin, spinning a spinner, and observing the se...

Angles of a Triangle

In this activity, students investigate the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle. They will explore interior angles, and their relationship with the exterior angles of a triangle.

Altitude, Median, and Angle Bisector of a Triangle

In this activity, you will construct special segments of a triangle named altitudes, medians, and angle bisectors, using their definitions. You will look at how an altitude, a median, and an angle bisector divide the area of a triangle.

Angle Bisectors and Medians of Quadrilaterals

In this activity, students will construct angle bisectors and medians in quadrilaterals and explore the properties that appear to be true for four-sided figures. They may find it necessary to review the definitions and properties of special quadrilaterals in order to construct the figures.

Plinko - Frequency Plots and Experimental Probability

In this activity, students simulate the Plinko game from the TV show "The Price Is Right", then use Navigator to share their results for the class. A frequency plot of class results is constructed, and conjectures made as to the experimental probability of winning the big money in this game. Th...

Angle Sum in Triangles Proof using Rotation and a Parallel Line

This investigation uses Cabri Jr. and a cleaver rotation of a triangle to "prove" that the angles in a triangle add up to 180. This could be used to reinforce triangles and paralled lines as well as introduce the concept of rotating an object.

Angles and Transversals

Students explore the relationships of angles formed when two parallel or non-parallel lines are cut by a transversal. This activity investigates the terms: Transversal, corresponding angles, alternate interior angles, alternate exterior angles, same-side interior angles, and same-side exterior an...
