In this animated activity, learners read about the properties of a square and its components. They then work practice problems to find the perimeter and area of squares.
The TI-83 Plus Calculator: The Square Root Function
Learners follow step-by-step instructions for calculating the square root of a number using the TI-83 Plus scientific calculator. Steps for determining impedance are also shown.
Learners examine how five or six groups of electrons around a central atom cause the shape of the molecule to be trigonal bipyramidal, seesaw, T-shaped, linear, octahedral, square pyramidal, or square planar. Seven examples and three interactive questions are provided in this animated activity.
In this interactive object, part 3 in a series, learners follow the steps of the “mathemagician” to examine four numerical curiosities: What’s Special About 1089, Perfect Squares: 1089 and 9801, The Mathematical Significance of 1776, and The Calculator Number Game. The learner will also study six number patterns and look at one remarkable table. Immediate feedback is provided.
In this interactive game, learners review emergency medications. For every right answer, the learner earns a square on the tic-tac-toe board while playing against the computer or another contestant.
In this interactive and animated object, learners examine the duty cycle of a squarewave produced by a multivibrator using a 555 IC (integrated circuit). A brief quiz completes the activity.
