In this algebra worksheet, 11th graders troubleshoot the TI-83/84 graphing calculator. They review the proper process to use when entering equations and fractions into the calculator. There are 4 example problems worked out.

Here is a lesson that starts with having geometers translate points using compass directions into an accurate picture of the problem. Then they must use their knowledge of the Pythagorean theorem or similar triangles to solve. This makes...

Use a vocabulary chart to introduce math functions. The class defines a list of mathematical vocabulary terms on a worksheet, as well as completes equations and expressions. They examine word problems and practice transcribing them into...

What is absolute value? What is an absolute value function? Emerging mathematicians solve equations containing variables inside an absolute value sign.  They graph each function on a coordinate plane and identify the maximum and...

This is an interesting geometry problem. Given the figure, find the area of a triangle that is created by the intersecting lines. The solution requires one to use what he/she knows about coordinate geometry, as well as triangle...

Friction leads to movement, heat, and melting on such a small scale most people don't notice. A short simulation permits scholars to observe the reaction between atoms as they move together.  The simulation applies the concept of...

Pupils investigate the concept of functions and how they are used with polynomials. They practice finding the zeros of functions and graph polynomial functions for the help of giving solutions. Students interpret the curve of a line that...

Ninth graders investigate absolute value equations and inequalities. In this Algebra I lesson, 9th graders solve and graph absolute value equations and inequalities. Students translate verbal expressions into absolute value inequalities.

Students rewrite word problems using algebraic symbols. In this algebra activity, students graph linear equations after they rewrite the equation using algebra. They relate math to the real world.

Students solve problems of inequalities and equations. In this algebra lesson plan, students add, subtract, multiply and divide to solve inequalities. They graph their solutions on a number line.

In this probability worksheet, 4th graders figure words to a song using the beginning letters. There are 10 different letters to decipher with an answer key.

Eleventh graders study seven functions. They use their handheld calculator to determine which family of functions the equation belongs, the parent function described, and they calculate the vertical and horizontal translation.

In this transformations worksheet, students sketch transformations of given graphs in four problems.  In one of these problems students match graphs to equations.

In this variable expression activity, students read word statements and translate them into an algebraic expression. Afterward, students solve the one-variable equations. This one-page activity contains ten problems.

In this function worksheet, students map equations and identify three dominant characteristics. They evaluate functions of complex variables. This three-page worksheet contains approximately ten problems.

Budding mathematicians investigate how to write number sentences using the Roll-the-Dice tool in "Kid Pix". They correlate the dots on the dice to numbers and then learn to use the addition and equal symbols to write number sentences....

Get the trig facts fast, and use the review sheet as a guide in the classroom. The worksheet also includes a document version if any changes are needed to the problems. The information includes a small degree/radian chart, a graph of all...

What are constraints and how can they be represented mathematically? This instructional slideshow provides an explanation and an example of how to translate constraints into algebraic inequalities.

Students determine the vertex, y-intercept and direction of a parabola and write an explanation of how to graph a parabola. They collect and graph data using a calculator.

Students read real world problems, determine the variables, and set up the function using algebraic statements. After entering data into the graphing calculator, they display information in the form of graphs and scatter plots. ...
