Learners differentiate and calculate the length of an arc. They define an arc and relate it to the area of a circle and integrate the function to solve the equations. Students use their TI calculators to graph the equation.

In this calculus worksheet, students solve functions by using the derivatives. The calculate the maximum and minimum of each function presented. There are 28 questions.

In this partial derivatives learning exercise, students find formulas for the vector partial derivative of a function. They prove that an elliptic cone can be represented parametrically. This two-page learning exercise contains...

In this precalculus worksheet, students use their graphing calculator to determine the coordinates for given functions. They determine the values for cosine, sign, tangent, and secant of given equations. Given an angle of elevation,...

In this precalculus worksheet, 12th graders find the solutions to the parametric equations and practice with the help of a graphing calculator.

Investigate the application of vector transformations applied to linear systems. Individuals use vectors to transform a linear system translating the solution to the origin. They apply their understanding of vectors, matrices,...

Students participate in activities with Mr. Potato Head and Inspector Gadget. During the activity, they must request the body part they want to add to the body. They must state their request in a complete sentence and point to the body...

In this rocket launch worksheet, students solve 3 problems about the Ares 1X rocket and its launch, trajectory, and motion in both the vertical and horizontal direction.

Students graph polar graphs. In this calculus instructional activity, students convert between polar and rectangular coordinates. They graph their solution on the TI calculator and make observations.

In this calculus worksheet, students differentiate equations and calculate rate of change. They find the area and volume under a curve. There are 18 questions on this test.

Pupils factor quadratic equations. In this algebra lesson, students apply the binomial square theorem to solve quadratics. They complete the square and use the complex number system to solve for the roots.

In this math worksheet, students imagine a situation where a weight is attached to a string and it is swung in a circle. Then they use vectors and derivatives to describe the motion.

In this contour integration worksheet, students evaluate an equation, sketch the contour and evaluate the integral. This two-page worksheet contains approximately eight problems.

In this AP Calculus review worksheet, students solve twenty-eight multiple choice questions in preparation for the AP Calculus BC exam.

Learners pretend to purchase items at their class store using coins. At the store, they are to state the amount of the item they want to buy by reading the label. They give the cashier the correct amount of coins and are given a mark on...

Learners practice taking directions from their peers during group activities. With teachers, they practice the directions and then gradually start practicing with their mainstream friends. They are given marks on a chart noting how they...

In this activity, students investigate and graph parametric functions, vectors, polar functions, and 3D functions.

Here's an activity to use to teach students how to use the TI-86 graphing calculator to graph functions in parametric or polar modes. Calculator keystroke instructions and calculator screenprints are given in this student activity.

This activity allows the user to plot ordered pairs and parametric equations on the same coordinate plane.

In this activity, students' will record the x- and y-coordinates of a rod moving in a figure-eight pattern. They will then use the recorded motion information to separately model the x- and y-motion as a function of time. They will plot...

This Math World site explains how the hyperboloid is created from a hyperbola, illustrated with graphs. The site then goes into detail giving the parametric and cartesian equations for a one sheeted hyperboloid and then the two sheeted...

This site from the Richland Community College provides the detailed lecture notes to a college algebra course, complete with equations and definitions. Content ranges from "functions and their graphs" to "conics and parametric equations."

This site from Math World begins with a picture of an ellipsoid and then gives cartesian and parametric equations for the surface. The site gives much more information for the ellipsoid, including special ellipsoids, a surface area...

This is a good site from the University College London with links to the various sections on hyperbolics.
