Curated OER
The Root is Right
Students find the roots of an equation. In this roots lesson, students define the bisection method algorithm used to find the roots of an equation. They identify the margin of error in this process.

Approximating Roots of Polynomials
Students use the bisection method to approximate the roots of a polynomial. They evaluate functions for a given point, graph linear and quadratic functions, and recognize the elements of polynomial expressions.
