Drawing a Conclusion from an Experiment (part 1)

Give classes confidence in completing the square with a resource that develops the process of completing the square of more complex problems, including fractions and values greater than one. It then uses quadratic modeling for...

Avoid the trap of memorizing steps when completing the square with a resources that provides a conceptual approach to completing the square. Learners that are able to recognize a perfect square trinomial are ready to complete the...

Give AP Calculus classes the opportunity to check the accuracy of their calculations! A calculus activity involves the collection of data, the application of mathematics, and the analysis of the accuracy of results. Young mathematicians...

Looking to challenge your learners that have mastered basic triangle congruence proofs? A collection of proofs employ previously learned definitions, theorems, and properties. Pupils draw on their past experiences with proofs to...

Relevance is key! The resource applies quadratic modeling by incorporating application of physics and business. Pupils work through scenarios of projectile motion and revenue/profit relationships. By using the key features of the graph,...

Where is the turning point? The presentation demonstrates how the process of completing the square finds several points in the graph of a quadratic. One of the most important points found is the vertex of the graph. The video shows where...

Don't be a square — learn to complete one! The instructor uses the general vertex form of the quadratic function to solve for the constants a, h, and k. Then, pupils can write the function in vertex form. The lesson follows a video on...

Detailed math tutorial features notes and examples that illustrate how to solve quadratic equations using complete the square then use that to derive the quadratic formula.

Teachers of grades 9-12 can explore these seven math units for their classes. Data collection and analysis, problem solving with spreadsheets, and linear transformation are just a few of the topics covered here.

Model the world with graphs. Pupils watch and participate in creating graphs to model real-world situations. The presenters stress the importance of a consistent scale and proper labels for the graphs along with identification of the...
