Sophia: Finding a Polynomial Passing Through a Point: Lesson 3

Good things happen when algebra and geometry get together! Continue the exploration of coordinate geometry in the third lesson plan in the series. Pupils explore linear equations and describe the points of intersection with a given...

Many things in life take the shape of a polynomial curve. Learners design a polynomial function to model a riverbed. Using different strategies, they find the flow rate through the river.

Don't allow those polynomial functions to misbehave! Understand the end behavior of a polynomial function based on the degree and leading coefficient. Learners examine the patterns of even and odd degree polynomials and apply them to...

Point out an application of Pythagoras. The segment of an essential playlist on geometry provides a quick review of the Pythagorean Theorem. Using a right triangle to show the positions of two points, the presenter calculates the...

What's the quickest way to get from point A to point B? A straight line, of course! Young scholars learn to write the equation of this line as they watch a video lesson. They then have the opportunity to deepen their understanding using...

High schoolers generate the equation of a polynomial given its roots and the end behavior of the function. They need to apply theorems concerning the multiplicity of roots, conjugates of irrational or imaginary roots to find a...
