Students identify positive and negative angles using the Unit Circle. In this pre-calculus lesson, students identify the different angles on a unit circle using the coordinate plane and the four different quadrants as a guide. They...

Here is a set of lessons that explore conics in a number of different ways. Starting with modeling how a conic is produced by the way a plane cuts the cone, to solving complex word problems, algebra learners progress through a series of...

When it comes to rating educational calculators, this calculator is always near the top of this list. Now it's available as an app. There is a lot of calculator power wrapped up in this app. Not only is this a fully functioning...

We landed on the moon with less computing capabilities than you can find in this app! Here is a multiple function calculator that takes all the power you get from a handheld and adds the wonderful large screen that only a tablet can...

Students solve problems using patterns. In this algebra lesson, students identify the relation, domain and range of a function. They graph functions using coordinate pairs.

Students explore a linear, a parabolic, and a log function.  In this Algebra II/Pre-calculus instructional activity students investigate the graph a line, a parabola, and a log function.  Students examine the three graphs as...

Learners solve the area of triangles. In this precalculus lesson, students are given two sides of a triangle and asked to calculate the area. They apply the law of sine and the side-angle-side area formula to solve.

Students apply the properties of a right triangle. In this triangle lesson, students describe and compare radians to degrees. They solve problems using the properties and ratios of a right triangle.

Learners identify different locations on a unit circle. In this precalculus instructional activity, students identify the different trig properties and rewrite the equation of a circle in standard form. They use mnemonic devices to...

Students find triangular angles using the angle theorem. In this geometry lesson plan, students describe labeled triangles, use the pythagorean theorem, and rewrite information about triangles in standard form.

High schoolers explore the concept of logarithms.  For this logarithms lesson, students discuss the logarithm properties.  High schoolers use linear functions as a basis to develop the logarithm properites by substituting log b...

Students investigate angles converting them from radians to degrees. In this trigonometry lesson, students work with angles and the six different trig ratios. They graph the functions representing each trig functions and identify the...

Learners find the length of the arc of a circle. In this geometry instructional activity, students calculate the length of an arc and find the measure of the central angle given the length of the arc. They convert between linear and...
