Conic Graph PaperNot an interactive digital resource, but a very useful resource for teaching conics nonetheless. From Lou Talman. http://clem.mscd.edu/~talmanl/PDFs/Misc/APCalculus/ConicGraphPaper.pdf Sorting SymmetriesNaomi has a triangle which is blue on one side and yellow on the other. It has a dot in one corner on each side. How many ways are there of posting this triangle through a triangular shaped slot?
Turning Triangles and other locus problemsTurning Triangles Roundabout Is There a Theorem? Rollin' Rollin' Rollin; What happens if the radius of the moving circle is half that of the fixed circle? Can you generalise your results further? Isosceles Triangles with Equal AreaGiven isosceles triangle OAP on a coordinate plane, where O is the origin, A lies on the positive x-axis and P is a point in quadrant I. What is the locus of P such that triangle OAP always has an area of 12 square units? Turning ManThis flash program could be used to introduce simple transformations to the littlies, or an an application of group theory to senior high school students. How cool is that!
Mind Readers 1 & 2Two mind reading activities. The first one can be explained using knowledge of linear expressions, while the second one is just a bit of fun.
The Case of the Missing SquareA triangle is made up of four pieces. Move the pieces around to make a new congruent triangle. Except the new triangle is missing one square unit! Where did it go?
Cooking PotatoesAn interactive animation illustrating the sequence described by the nth term expression, 4n - 1, where n corresponds to the number of potatoes. Drag the potatoes into the microwave to see the time required to cook them. Click the arrow button to reset the animation.
Graphing Coordinate PointsA simple but effective tool for plotting points in the first quadrant.
An Equation ToolCreate and solve a linear equation by dragging the green circles up and down. The interactive graphics fill the whole screen so it is great for interactive whiteboards. Solutions must be natural numbers. From Yenka.com These versions show if the equation is balanced or not, but the equation can't be changed.
