Geometric Quilts

This is a PodCast of a teacher that did this activity in her classroom.  She shows students working on their Geometric Quilts and she also shows some mistakes that her students made.  Watch this podcast and hopefully it will keep you from making the same mistakes.

MS 113 textbooks

MS 113 students:
Here is the ISBN for the textbook we will be using this semester in Trig. You can look it up on any textbook website, the JSU bookstore, or if you have a friend that might have the book. We are using the 10th edition Analytic Trigonometry. ISBN: 10th. ed. 978-0470-28076-8. Let me know if you have any problems. We will begin the first day back so I suggest you get this as soon as possible to avoid getting behind.

Algebra II Exploring the Titanic Activity

This is a very interesting activity. It allows you to explore the Titanic and the people that survived and died while on the Titanic.  It will also incorporate some mathematical knowledge because you will have to create some graphs about the information you have found.  DO NOT COMPLAIN to the sub about this activity and if you have any questions you can comment on the blog and I will check it often to help.  Everything is pretty self explanatory and you guys are intelligent people so I KNOW you will do well.  You are working with a partner and you will be presenting this on the Monday I return to school so take it seriously.  Have fun!!  

Here's the link to the papers you already have in hand but this will help because of the links.

You can also look on the left of the blog homepage under Blog Archive and click 2010 and then to September and scroll down to Geometry proofs and there is a link to me working out two proofs if you need to look at some more.  

Informal Geometry Factoring Practice

Solve each equation by factoring.

1.)    x2 - 7x + 0 = 0	2.)    x2 - 12x + 11 = 0
3.)    x2 - 12x + 32 = 0	4.)    x2 - 15x + 36 = 0
5.)    x2 + 10x + 21 = 0	6.)    x2 - 13x + 40 = 0
7.)    x2 + 5x + 6 = 0	8.)    x2 - 14x + 33 = 0
9.)    x2 + x + 0 = 0	10.)    x2 + 3x - 10 = 0
11.)    x2 + 2x - 11 = 0	12.)    10x2 + 12x - 2 = 0
13.)    5x2 + 13x + 8 = 0	14.)    - 4x2 + 12x + 11 = 0
15.)    - 3x2 + 2x + 6 = 0	16.)    3x2 + 10x + 8 = 0
17.)    11x2 + 23x + 12 = 0	18.)    6x2 + 5x - 6 = 0
19.)    - 6x2 - 11x + 6 = 0	20.)    6x2 - 11x + 3 = 0
