Exploring Vertical Asymptotes

For Teachers 9th - 12th Standards
Scholars identify the domain of a rational function in this precalculus lesson. They identify the removable discontinuity and label what will make the denominator zero. Learners also describe properties of the graph as it relates to the...

Multiplicity of Zeros of Functions

For Teachers 9th - 12th Standards
Pupils identify the multiplicity of exponents as they graph polynomials. They write equations for a function given the zeros of the function and work backwards from solving equations.

Rose Curve

For Teachers 9th - 12th Standards
Arcsine will be better understood and applied through prediction the number of petals on a rose curve using polar equations. Students relate rose curve to siusoidal functions using the Ti navigator.

Finite Differences

For Teachers 9th - 12th Standards
Young mathematicians solve problems with polynomials. As they graph and analyze polynomial functions, learners define constant and finite, and determine the relationship between the constant set of differences and the slope of a linear...

Local Linearity

For Teachers 8th - 11th Standards
In order to investigate local linearity, young scholars graph the function on the TI-calculator and zoom to observe the change in slope on the line. They incorporate technology to visualize these problems.

Engineering in a Calculus Classroom

For Teachers 11th - 12th
Students solve several differential equations. In this calculus lesson, students test their modulus calculation by testing different weights or beam lengths. They share their findings in class.
