Texas Instruments: Numb3 Rs: Slippery Paths

Curated by ACT

Based off of the hit television show NUMB3RS, this lesson introduces students to Steiner Points, which are essentially points of concurrency within triangles. This is done in the context of a criminal who needs to place a hideout equidistant from three known locations. Extensions include soap bubble experiments and a real-life Delta Airline / AT&T fiasco.
