Texas Instruments: Solving Problems Using Trigonometry

Address any kind of math concept or problem with a series of problem-solving strategies. Over 12 days of different activities and increasing skills, learners practice different ways to solve problems, check their answers, and reflect...

There's more than one way to solve an equation — three, actually. Scholars learn how to solve simple linear equations in one variable using three different methods, which include using balance scales, using decomposition (e.g., turning...

Concepts are only valuable if they are applicable. An informative resource uses concepts developed in lessons 26 and 27 in a 36-part series. Scholars write equations and solve for missing side lengths for given right triangles....

Given problem situations involving similar figures, the student will use ratios to solve the problems.

Use the pythagorean theorem to solve problems with radicals.

Use word problems to teach systems of equations! The instructor in this video demonstrates how to solve a word problem using a system of equations and the elimination by subtraction method. She goes through each step, carefully...

Have your class figure out how much "Teddy" weighs on the moon and how to translate words into algebra! This video shows pupils how to take a word problem, and then solve it using the direct variation formula and given information. Great...

Students learn to solve inequalities using one and two steps. They review the properties of inequalities.

This StudyCards set begins with "what is an equation?" and continues to the meaning of solving an equation. The function approach is used to solve the equations.

This activity is designed to assess the comprehension of concepts related to solving equations, literal equations, and right triangle trigonometry.
