Special Midpoint Quadrilaterals

Midpoint Quadrilaterals are quadrilaterals that are formed when consecutive midpoints of a quadrilateral are connected. This activity will use Cabri® Jr. to investigate what properties an exterior quadrilateral has if its midpoint quarilateral has some special properties of its own.

The Spread of Disease

In this activity, students simulate the spread of a disease in a population. They use the Probability Simulation application to learn that certain sums occur more often than others because of combinations of addends of those sums.

NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "The Running Man" - The Eyes Have It

The FBI is investigating a robbery at the research facility of a large company. The FBI believes that the robbers were employees of the company, because they were able to bypass the iris recognition security scan and gain entrance. However, a security camera was able to capture a partial image of...

Chi-Squared Tests

In this activity, students will look at a problem situation that involves categorical data and will determine which is the appropriate chi-square test to use: the chi-squared goodness of fit or the chi-squared two-way test.

Describing Bivariate Data (Two Quantitative Variables)

Students explore the relationship between two quantitative variables in bivariate data using various x-y plots. They compare the relationships for several categories on the same plot. Students calculate the correlation coefficient to measure the strength and direction of the linear relationship t...

NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Mind Games" - Thumbs Up!

In "Mind Games," the FBI hires a psychic to help them solve a series of murders. To test how good he is, they show him the backs of a set of 25 playing cards and ask him to predict whether each is red or black. He gets every single one wrong. In this activity, students conduct an experiment and ...

NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Mind Games" - Right or Wrong

In "Mind Games," a psychic shocks Charlie by incorrectly guessing the color (black or red) of 25 cards in a row. As Larry says, "the probability of getting them all wrong is the same as getting them all right." This activity applies the binomial theorem to the probability of correctly guessing a ...
