Trigonometry, art, and Valentine's Day come together in a creative activity about parametric equations. Learners calculate several equations before graphing them either by hand, on a graphic calculator, or Excel spreadsheet to curve...

Twelfth graders discuss sine curves and enter equations into their graphing calculator then compare different graphs created on their calculators. They identify the period, amplitude and phase shift given the graph or the equation of a...

Pupils graph Taylor polynomials in this calculus lesson plan. They observe the graphs for the expansion of Taylor polynomial functions and use the Ti calculator to help create visuals of the graphs.

Students investigate angles converting them from radians to degrees. In this trigonometry lesson plan, students work with angles and the six different trig ratios. They graph the functions representing each trig functions and identify...

Young scholars calculate the maximum and minimum of each function. In this algebra instructional activity, students collect and graph data to analyze it. They differentiate between the absolute max and min and the maxima and minima of...

High schoolers use the equation to calculate the vertical distance an object fall during 1 second in 1/10 second increments. (The acceleration due to gravity on the Earth=a= 9.8 m/s2) Using a graphing calculator, students plot the path...

Students solve problems using the composition of functions. In this algebra lesson, students analyze the graph of a quadratic equation for its vertex and intercepts. they find the inverse of the function using addition, subtraction,...

Young scholars identify trigonometric functions. In this trigonometry lesson, students add and subtract trigonometric functions. They add sine and cosine waves and relate it to the real world.
