Learners differentiate between linear and non-linear graphs. In this algebra lesson, students investigate slopes as it relates to a function using graphs of linear and non-linear equations. They collect data using the TI to graph...

Students differentiate their problems to find functions and non-functions. In this calculus lesson, students relate functions and relation through similarities and differences. They rewrite equations that are functions using f(x).

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.

Students compare and order numbers. In this geometry instructional activity, students write equations for inequalities. They differentiate and apply concepts of triangular properties to solve problems.

Learners calculate the slope of parallel and perpendicular lines.In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between parallel and perpendicular lines. They graph their lines using the slope of the equation.

Students differentiate between exponential and logarithmic functions. In this algebra lesson, students use logarithmic properties to solve equations. They identify growth and decay of graphs.

Students use the point slope formula to calculate the slope and equation of a line. In this algebra lesson, students identify point on a coordinate plane using a robot. They differentiate between the different quadrants a they follow the...

Students identify the slope of a line given two points on the line. In this algebra activity, students solve linear equations by finding and comparing slopes of lines. They differentiate between the steepness of the slope and the line.
