Curated OER
Reflecting a Triangle in the Coordinate Plane
Learners explore geometric concepts using technology. They manipulate the TI to find important math topics. This activity requires a TI-84 or higher.
Curated OER
Trigonometric Ratios
Learners investigate properties of the unit circle using sine, cosine and tangent. They analyze the answers to questions about the unit circle based on a right triangle.
Curated OER
Let's Gather Around the Circle
Scholars explore the relationship between circumference and diameter. Groups of learners measure the diameter and circumference of round objects and record their data on a given worksheet. They then input the data into their graphing...

Trisecting a Square
High Schoolers investigate the question of whether or not the area of square can be trisected. In this lesson, they use geometry software to answer the questions and determine what conditions are necessary to the three regions to by equal.
Curated OER
Midpoint of a Segment
Learners revisit midpoint and segments by graphing on the TI or computer. This activity can be done with pencil and paper, but is more interactive if it is done on a TI-navigator.
Curated OER
Intersecting Lines and Vertical Angles
Pupils identify and define intersecting lines and vertical angles. They draw two intersecting lines and measure one pair of vertical angles. Learners will also move a line to change the angles of a figure and describe the changes in the...
Texas Instruments
Transformational Puppet
High Schoolers create a puppet and make predictions using the TI Navigator. In this math instructional activity, they will discuss their results as they explore transformation. This assignment requires the TI navigator or a smartboard.
Curated OER
Sail Problem
High schoolers explore the proportional relationships involved in multiple parallel lines being cut by a transverse line. They complete a sail design problem, that involves finding the lengths of pieces of fabric along the edge of a sail...
Curated OER
Evaluating the Products of Chords of a Circle
Students investigate chords and make predictions. In this geometry lesson, students graph circles and calculate the measurement of each chord. They perform the calculations and make conjectures.
