Students drill and practice putting problems into vector form. They draw each problem before trying to solve them. Students draw arrows for any vector quantities to indicate magnitude and direction.

In this graphical representation worksheet, students draw an Argand diagram depicting complex numbers. They draw in vectors that represent complex numbers. This three-page worksheet contains approximately ten problems.

In this graphical representation activity, students draw an Argand diagram depicting two complex numbers in a complex plane. They draw vectors to represent complex numbers. This two-page activity contains five equations to solve.

Who's driving that car? Science is! Through a simulation, learners adjust the magnitude and angle of motion on a driverless car. Two different motions create a resultant motion. Vectors represent the motion and graphs depict the...

How do graphic designers project three-dimensional images onto two-dimensional spaces? Scholars connect their learning of matrix transformations to graphic design. They understand how to apply matrix transformations to make...

Combine vectors and matrices to describe transformations in space. Class members create visual representations of the addition of ordered pairs to discover the resulting parallelogram. They also examine the graphical representation...

Explore properties of addition as they relate to matrices. Using graphical representations of vector matrices, scholars test the commutative and associative properties of addition. They determine if the properties are consistent for...

Young scholars examine nautical navigation and discover the differences between nautical charts and other types of maps or charts. Students practice setting a course, taking a bearing, and dead reckoning. This gives young scholars an...

Provide an introduction to translations and the notation used to denote a translation on the coordinate plane. An independent practice portion provides the pupils several opportunities to practice the skill of translations along...

In this multiplication of vectors worksheet, students prove that the dot product operation is commutative. They normalize a vector so it has the same direction with a magnitude of one. Students use the angle formula to confirm...

In this partial derivatives worksheet, students find formulas for the vector partial derivative of a function. They prove that an elliptic cone can be represented parametrically. This two-page worksheet contains explanations, examples,...

Pretty purple slides present a plethora of jargon related to genetic engineering. Most of them have one term across the top and a brief explanation of that term below. They are arranged in alphabetical order, which may not be the most...

Introduce your young scholars to the concepts of circular motion, projectile motion, angular speed, simple harmonic motion, torque, center of mass, centripetal force, and Hooke's Law with a 86-slide presentation. The circular motion...

Can segments be considered perpendicular if they don't intersect? Learners look at nonintersecting segments on the coordinate plane and make conclusions about the lines that contain those segments. They determine if they are...

To work through the complexity of coordinate geometry pupils make the connection between the coordinate plane and the complex plane as they plot complex numbers in the 11th part of a series of 32. Making the connection between the two...

Build a definition of congruence from an understanding of rigid transformations. The lesson asks pupils to explain congruence through a series of transformations. Properties of congruence emerge as they make comparisons to these...

Ninth graders explain differences between bitmapped images and vector images. They calculate pixels and transpose the raw file size to bits, bytes, and kilobytes. They compare formats for displaying images on a Web page.

In this determinant learning exercise, students use determinants to find area and volume. This two-page learning exercise contains examples, explanations and four problems.

A few class periods will be required to complete this physics investigation with your high schoolers. There is an unavailable video written into the lesson plan, but there is plenty of material here to bridge the gap. Two terrific...

Young scholars receive bloodstain pattern evidence from a crime scene. They answer a series of questions through inquiry, observation, measurement, and analysis. Pupils complete this challenge, by reconstructing the evidence through four...

Students participate in a lesson that investigates Newton's Second Law of Motion. They conduct an experiment of observing balls that are rolled down a ramp. The lesson includes background information for the teacher for preparation and...

Students identify variables that affect the system, and specify which variables are independent and which are dependent.

Students analyze energy usage and connect energy usage to fossil fuel consumption. In this global warming and pollution instructional activity, students what fuels are used to generate electricity and how much CO2 each fuel produces,...

Students investigate projectile motion. In this projectile motion lesson, students investigate a website with an interactive lesson. Students view the changes in the projectile they see in the lesson. Students watch short video clips and...
