Students investigate circles and compound locus. In this geometry lesson plan, students identify the distance from a point to a line. They use Cabri software to create lines and circles.

Students define the five rules of loci. For this geometry lesson, students identify the locus of points that creates a circle. They calculate the distance from a fixed line and point.

Students differentiate between ellipse and hyperbola. In this algebra lesson, students graph and solve elliptical equations. They use the cabri program to create the different conics and move them around.

Twelfth graders review for their analytic geometry test. In this calculus lesson, 12th graders review equations of graphs, relationship between graphs and equations, and transformation of graphs. After the review students are given...

Learners slice cones and identify the different conics formed. They then derive the formula to solve problems involving cones. Pull out the TI calculators to visualize the slicing and the different parts and properties created.

Students review the definition of a parabola. They trace a parabola by locating points the same distance from a point as they are to a line. Students develop an equation for a parabola with its vertex at the origin. Students solve...
