Measuring Angles in a Quadrilateral
Students determine the sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/measuring-angles-in-a-quadrilateral_1
Ratios of Similar Figures
Students will explore the ratio of perimeter, area, surface area, and volume of similar figures in two-dimensional figures.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ratios-of-similar-figures
To Infinity and Beyond!
Students' develop an understanding of what it means to take a limit at infinity. They learn to estimate limits from graphs and tables of values.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/to-infinity-and-beyond
Infinite Geometric Series
Students explore infinite geometric series. They will consider the effect of the value for the common ratio and determine whether an infinite geometric series converges or diverges.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/infinite-geometric-series
