Algebra II Teacher Resources

Here is an ACT practice worksheet where pupils solve pre-algebra problems in an ACT format. This packet contains a pre-algebra section with 15 problems, a pre-algebra II section with 10 problems, and one subtest with 14 problems.

In this Algebra II worksheet, students assess their knowledge of rational algebraic expressions. The three page worksheet contains a combination of twenty-three multiple choice, short answer, and word problems. Answers are not provided. 

Here's an algebra II activity that strives to make the concept of a radian less abstract and more conceptual. It takes a hands-on approach to exploring the idea of a radian and allows individuals to develop a definition of a radian...

Time for classes to show what they've learned. Use several tasks to assess understanding of the trigonometric functions, unit circle, radians, and basic trigonometric identities.

Will this be on the test? Learners demonstrate their understanding of trigonometric functions with an end-of-module assessment. They investigate two different real-world situations, one function in pure mathematics, and one potential...

Students complete an open book Algebra II test. In groups, with one student designated as the leader, students complete a practice exam. They exchange answer sheets and grade their papers. Students take the papers home and use them to...

In this overview video of direct and inverse variation, Sal shows the general form of each equation and its differences. The listener gains an intuitive understanding of the differences by highlighting how the x and y values vary with...

After watching this video, you should be able to write an equation for a conic section in standard form and identify the conic section from its equation. In an example problem, Sal reviews how to complete the square and graph an ellipse...

Provide your algebra class with some review of rational expressions in this video. Sal uses several sample problems to show viewers the process, and his explanations are clear and easy to understand.

Sal defines a hyperbola's vertex and foci in this video and shows how to locate both. By comparing the hyperbola to an ellipse throughout the video, the listener sees the similarities between these two conic sections. This approach makes...

This is the last of three well-done videos on identifying and graphing conic sections from an equation. Here, Sal shows how to graph a circle not centered at the origin and a parabola that opens downward.

Are odd numbers connected to odd functions and even numbers to even functions? This video tries to clarify that connection. It also talks about functions that are both odd and even to give a more intuitive feeling about classifying these...

We look at several different examples of functions and see what their domain is. Sal writes the domain in a set notion and shows how different functions can have different input values that cause them to be undefined.

The foci of an ellipse are explored in this video. First, foci are shown as the two points on the central axis such that the sum of the distance from a point on the ellipse and the foci points is the same as the distance from any point...

In this video, Sal shows again how to write an equation of a conic section in standard form and identify the conic section it represents. This time, his example is of a hyperbola (not centered at the origin), which he also graphs.

Here, parabolas, circles, ellipses, and hyperbolas are introduced by showing a general graph of each. By showing the intersection of a plane and a cone to create the different conic sections, one can see how these curves are related.

Students take an Algebra II/Trigonometry sample test.  In this Algebra II/Trigonometry sample sample test lesson, students take a sample test for Algebra 2/Trigonometry.  Students solve 39 multiple choice/short answer questions about...

A jam-packed worksheet has all the topics you would teach in an Algebra II class with a variety of question styles. Starting with function notation and ending with geometric sequences, there really is something for everyone. Each topic...
