Dynamic Algebra

Students create different ways to solve word problems. In this algebra lesson, students solve real life problems by creating formulas they can use more than once for different type of problems. They apply their knowledge of algebra to...

Intricate details of a modern technology that many of us take for granted in our phones, computers (and some cars) are laid bare in a short but deeply investigative activity. The math behind a seemingly simple GPS device is...

Give your scholars the support they need to work with formulas. A reference page offers definitions and picture examples of perimeter, area, surface area, volume, the Pythagorean theorem, a variety of shapes, and more. 

In this volume and surface area worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 10 different problems that include using spheres to examine changes in volume and surface area. First, they complete the chart shown using the formulas given....

Students solve words problems using algebra. In this algebra lesson, students work in-groups creating a poster-board with ideas and steps that will help them organize and solve word problems using real life scenarios.

Bringing together the young artists and the young organizers in your class, this lesson takes that popular topic of tessellations and gives it algebraic roots. After covering a few basic properties and definitions, learners attack the...

Providing the first installment in a series devoted to the exploration of Heron's Formula, this video is a high-level experience that delves into a proof using algebra. It demonstrates a step-by-step process for finding the area of a...

The formula of a sphere is related to the formula of a cylinder? How? Oh, radius and pi. Watch this video and observe how the instructor illustrates just how these two formulas are connected. Then plug in the known values and solve this...

This site is a tutorial for students in algebra 2 or for those who need a refresher. The site has explanations, definitions, examples, practice problems and practice tests are found covering topics such as linear equations, graphing,...

This tutorial will show you how using formulas can help you solve problems. Include formulas for various geometric shapes and steps showing how to use them.
