Click the topic you are studying to activate an engaging learning activity (Flash Player 7.0 or above required).

• Transforming Parabolas

  Investigate the vertex form of the equation for a parabola.

• Graphing Linear Equations in 3 Variables

  Graph linear equations of the form ax + by + cz = d in 3-D.

• Intersection of 3 Planes

  Investigate intersection of three planes in 3-D.

• Absolute Value Inequalities

  Investigate the relationship between absolute value function and the inequalities.

• Quadratics in Factored Form

  Explore the graphs of quadratic equations in factored form, y = a(x - r₁)(x - r₂).

• Slope-intercept Form of a Line

  Explore the graphs of linear equations in slope-intercept form.

• Transforming Functions

  Explore translations, stretches, and "squishes" of quadratic, trigonometric, and absolute value functions.

• Intersection of Cone and Plane

  Investigate the intersection of cone and plane.

• Ellipse

  Explore the definition of an ellipse.

• Hyperbola

  Explore the definition of an hyperbola.

• Circles, Ellipses, Hyperbolas

  Explore the graphs of conic sections (circle, ellipse, and hyperbola) with equations in standard form.

• Conic Sections - General Form

  Explore the graphs of conic sections with equations in general form:
  Ax² + Bxy + Cy² + Dx + Ey + F = 0.

• 3-D Point Plotter

  Explore point plotting in 3-D space.

• Relations and Functions

  Investigate when a relation is a function.

• The Function Machine

  Enter a function rule, and explore the resulting table of values and graph.

• Guess the Function

  Enter x-values to find the corresponding y-values. Then guess the function rule.

• Equating Two Expressions

  Investigate when two expressions in x are equal.

• Inequality Grapher
