Students solve equations by writing expressions. In this algebra lesson, students identify the different values for each variable. They use the navigator to see how to solve equations.

Students solve equations and graph-their solutions. In this algebra lesson, students, identify the type of line using the slope of the equation. They graph and observe their lines.

Every topic or subject has its own special jargon. Learners work on their math vocabulary as it relates to basic algebra terms. They define and identify function, functional notation, ordered pairs, rate of change, slope,...

High schoolers solve inequalities problems. In this algebra lesson, students graph the solution of inequalities on a number line. They discuss boundaries and open or closed intervals.

Have the class factor and solve trinomials of integers in the form x2 + bx + c, where b and c are positive. They relate factoring to area and then follow a specific format to factor their trinomials. Tiles are used to help them...

Students factor trinomials. In this algebra lesson plan, students identify the different integers making up the trinomial and use the special pattern to factor them. They continue to model the equations and how to factor correctly.

Students calculate the distance between two points. In this geometry lesson plan, students define the meaning of the distance between parallel lines. They find the point of intersection of other lines.

Label angles of parallel lines to analyze the angles created by a transversal and two parallel lines. They graph their lines and observe the similarity and difference in the angles.

Students identify important properties of triangles. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between medians, bisectors and altitudes in a triangle. They identify the properties of these important segments.

Nested triangles have been created so that they share a common vertex and vertex angle. Learners drag the endpoints of the side that is opposite the common angle to discover the conditions that make the nested triangles similar. When...

Students calculate area, perimeter and length of rectangles. In this geometry lesson, students create different formulas for the problem they are being asked to solve. They use the navigator to move the shape around and make observations.

Young scholars perform transformations on their graphs. In this algebra lesson, students identify the pre-image and image. They find and identify congruent shapes and isometry.

Students solve two functions at once. In this algebra lesson, students add, subtract, multiply and divide composition functions. They use the correct notation and substitution to get their answer.

Young mathematicians solve composition of functions. They add, subtract, multiply and divide functions and then identify the domain and range of each function. An embedded animation shows three different applications of function...

Students perform reflections of polygons. In this algebra lesson, students use matrices to calculate the reflection across the x and y axis. They also calculate rotation representing 90 and 180 degrees around the origin of the coordinate...

High schoolers find the roots of quadratic equations. In this algebra lesson, students solve radical equations and identify the positive and negative roots. They graph and analyze their functions.

Mathematicians graph logarithmic equations. Teach your students how to identify the intercepts of logarithmic equations and tell whether the function is increasing or decreasing. They find the domain and range of each function.

Scholars identify the domain of a rational function in this precalculus lesson. They identify the removable discontinuity and label what will make the denominator zero. Learners also describe properties of the graph as it relates to the...

Learners relate polynomials to a rollercoaster track as they translate a graph around on a coordinate plane. They differentiate between different forms of algebraic expressions.

Learners study weather using a graphing calculator in this lesson. They collect data for temperature and relative humidity for every hour over a day from the newspaper, then place the data in their handheld calculator and examine it for...

Learners explore binomial multiplication through the use of technology. Using a graphing calculator, you pupils enter the binomial expression into Y1, multiply the binomials and enter that result into Y2, and combine like terms and enter...

Learners use their graphing calculators to view graphs of equations. They tell if each equations is or is not a function and are shown pre-set graphs on their graphing calculators. They use the Quick Poll feature to indicate if the graph...

Learners find common ratios of geometric sequences on a spreadsheet. Using this data, they create scatter plots of the sequences to determine how each curve is related to the value of the common ratio. They will consider whether series...

Young scholars explore quartic functions in this calculus lesson. They investigate an application of derivatives and definite integrals, then explore the question of which of the "three bumps" of a quartic is the largest.
