Ray
Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the definition of a ray. The applet presents one point and a line that goes from that point off to infinity. As the point is dragged the line moves but it is never possible to reveal the other line end. See also the entries for line segment and line. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

Ray definition (Coordinate Geometry)
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that show the definition of a ray in coordinate geometry. The applet has two points that the user can drag. The two points define a ray, one of them the endpoint, the other a secondary point through which the ray passes. The grid, axis pointers and coordinates can be turned on and off. The applet can be printed as it appears on the screen to make handouts. The web page has a full definition of a ray when the coordinates of the points defining it are known, and has links to other pages relating to coordinate geometry. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

A web page and interactive applet showing the definition and properties of a rectangle. The applet shows a rectangle where the user can drag any vertex. The other points then move in such a way that the figure remains a rectangle at all times. A control to hide the details allows a classroom discussion where students can try to infer what the properties are as it is reshaped by the discussion leader. Text on the page has the formal definition and properties of the rectangle with links to related pages. A companion page is http://www.mathopenref.com/rectanglearea.html showing the ways to calculate the area of a rectangle Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that show the definition and properties of a rectangle in coordinate geometry. The applet has a rectangle with draggable vertices. As the user re-sizes the rectangle the applet continuously recalculates its width, height and diagonals from the vertex coordinates. Rectangle can be rotated on the plane to show the more complex cases. The grid, coordinates and calculations can be turned on and off for class problem solving. The applet can be printed in the state it appears on the screen to make handouts. The web page has a full definition of a rectangle when the coordinates of the points defining it are known, and has links to other pages relating to coordinate geometry. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page showing how to find the area and perimeter of a rectangle from the coordinates of its vertices. The rectangle can be either parallel to the axes or rotated. The grid and coordinates can be turned on and off. The area and perimeter calculation can be turned off to permit class exercises and then turned back on the verify the answers. The applet can be printed as it appears on the screen to make handouts. The web page has a full description of the method for determining area and perimeter, a worked example and has links to other pages relating to coordinate geometry.

Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate reflex angles (greater than 180 deg). The applet presents an angle (initially reflex) that the user can adjust by dragging the end points of the line segments forming the angle. As it changes it shows the angle measure and a message that indicate which type of angle it is. There a software 'detents' that make it easy capture exact angles such as 90 degrees and 180 degrees The message and angle measures can be turned off to facilitate classroom discussion. The text on the page has links to other pages defining each angle type in depth. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

Regression: Crash Course Statistics #32
Rating
0.0 stars

Today we're going to introduce one of the most flexible statistical tools - the General Linear Model (or GLM). GLMs allow us to create many different models to help describe the world - you see them a lot in science, economics, and politics. Today we're going to build a hypothetical model to look at the relationship between likes and comments on a trending YouTube video using the Regression Model. We'll be introducing other popular models over the next few episodes.

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate regular polygons. The applet presents a regular hexagon initially. The user can drag any vertex, which causes all the others to move in such a way as to keep the polygon regular. There are buttons to change the number of sides from 3 to 99. The apothem and circumradius are shown and continuously updated as you drag Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

Relationship of area and perimeter of a triangle
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that show the relationship between the perimeter and area of a triangle. It shows that a triangle with a constant perimeter does NOT have a constant area. The applet has a triangle with one vertex draggable and a constant perimeter. As you drag the vertex, it is clear that the area varies, even though the perimeter is constant. Optionally, you can see the path traced by the dragged vertex and see that it forms an ellipse. A link takes you to a page where this effect is exploited to construct an ellipse with string and pins. The applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

The Replication Crisis: Crash Course Statistics #31
Rating
0.0 stars

Replication (re-running studies to confirm results) and reproducibility (the ability to repeat an analyses on data) have come under fire over the past few years. The foundation of science itself is built upon statistical analysis and yet there has been more and more evidence that suggests possibly even the majority of studies cannot be replicated. This "replication crisis" is likely being caused by a number of factors which we'll discuss as well as some of the proposed solutions to ensure that the results we're drawing from scientific studies are reliable.

Rhombus area formula

Rating
0.0 stars

A web page and interactive applet showing the ways to calculate the area of a rhombus. The user can drag the vertices of the rhombus and the other points change automatically to ensure it remains a rhombus. A grid inside the shape allows students to estimate the area visually, then check against the actual computed area. The text on the page gives three different ways to calculate the area with a formula for each. The applet uses one of the methods to compute the area in real time, so it changes as the rhombus is reshaped with the mouse.

Rating
0.0 stars

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the three types of triangle: acute, obtuse and right. The applet shows a triangle that is initially right (one angle 90 degrees) which the user can reshape by dragging any vertex. There is a message changes in real time while the triangle is being dragged that tells if the triangle is an acute, right or obtuse triangle and gives the reason why. By experimenting with the triangle student can develop an intuitive sense of the difference between these three classes of triangle.
