University of Saskatchewan: Graphing Polynomials

Transform your instructional activity on transformations. Scholars investigate transformations, with particular emphasis on translations and dilations of the graphs of logarithmic and exponential functions. As part of this investigation,...

Using Wolframalpha graphing capabilites, algebra learners graph polynomials with degrees of three and larger. They identify the roots and graph each polynomial, predict zeros and shapes of graphs, and validate their understanding through...

Take a look in the window. Pupils watch a presentation to discover how to graph a polynomial using a graphing calculator and using the window to find the extrema. Scholars use their knowledge from previous lessons to gain a rough idea of...

Challenge: Sketch a graph of a quadratic function without making a table of values. High schoolers learn how different parameters affect the graph of a quadratic function. The problem video focuses on dilations of quadratic graphs.

The University of Saskatchewan's Department of Mathematics and Statistics provides high school students with online tutorials and exercises on what they deem some of the most important topics in exponential and logarithmic functions....

This site from the University of Saskatchewan provides an explanation of factoring by grouping, greatest common factor, perfect squares, and difference of squares. Higher degree polynomials factored as well. Some examples provided along...

Offers a straightforward introduction to graphing rational functions. Includes an example.

The University of Saskatchewan's Department of Mathematics and Statistics provides high school students with an online tutorial on complex numbers. Students can access accompanying examples within the tutorial. After you can also test...

So, exactly, what does it look like? The easily usable graphing calculator allows pupils to visualize the graph of equations and inequalities. The interactive supports any algebraic graph needed for high school mathematics and then some.

A more advanced review of Algebra II concepts allows students to test their readiness for higher level math courses. Topics range from absolute value to rational expressions.
