Partners compare their results to see whether in each section they have obtained one and the same answer. The practice worksheets give room for students to show their work. Answer keys are included.

This trigonometry practice consists of 12 problems (12 given diagrams) in which students will practice finding missing side and angle measures in right triangles using the sine, cosine, and tangent ratios. The problems are divided into four groups of three (four cases). In the first group of problems students need to find the opposite side in the right triangle. The second group of problems is finding the adjacent side. The third case is finding the hypotenuse. And the four case is finding the measure of a missing angle. Practice sheets give enough room for students to show work. Answer keys are included.

Students will use the power, quotient and power rules of exponents to find the value of each of 10 exponential expressions. The problems are challenging and include negative bases of the exponents. Students search for their answers consecutively in a table whose cells contain a numbers and a word to find an aphorism. Student recording sheet and answer keys are included.

This activity is designed to be used for groups of 4 members! It practices solving quadratic equations by factoring. The most of the equations have one or two terms on the right side and need to be reduced in their standard form. The leading coefficient is 1. Solutions are only integers. Activity Directions: Partners will each have their own set of 8 quadratic equations. They start solving and write down the solutions of the problems on the recording sheet provided. Then students look for the answers they have found on the “skittles board” – set of “pairs of skittles” given with numbers on them. They will find that all their solution sets are written on these pairs. Each player must cross out or mark the pairs of skittles which represent the solution sets of his equations. The group which has solved all the equations correctly and has “knocked down all the skittles” first, wins. Answer keys are included.

This is an engaging guiding practice on combining like terms & distributive property. It is easy to follow, consisting of 4 parts, 10 worked out examples and 6 tasks for students to do. First part is presenting the term like terms as students fulfill two tasks. Second is presenting the operation combining like terms, students are shown how to perform this operation in four worked out examples and then they are given four problems to solve. Third is simplifying algebraic expressions using combining like terms. Here students have two examples to follow so to solve four problems. And the fourth part is the distributive property and combining like terms. Students learn that when they have an expression with parentheses like a(b+c) they first need to apply the distributive property and then to combine the like terms. It is demonstrated with 3 worked out examples. Finally students are given to simplify 7 algebraic expressions as the last two need to be evaluated for given values of the variables. Answer keys are included.

This is an engaging and collaborative partner activity on solving radical equations. There are two problem pages/slides. Each page/slide consists of four sections. In each section partners are given a radical equation involving one or two parameters. Partners have to solve the equation for given value(s) of the parameter(s). Partner A will solve the equation for one value(s) of the parameter(s) and partner B will solve the same equation for another value(s) of the parameter(s). As the students obtain similar equations in each section they can help each other with methods. There are included equations with extraneous solutions.

This is a collaborative and engaging partner activity on logarithmic equations of the following types: ▸ log(base b) f(x) + log(base b) g(x) = c ▸ log(base b) f(x) - log(base b) g(x) = c where b and c are constants and f(x) and g(x) are linear functions involving a parameter a . (Students are given the values of the parameter so they will NOT solve a parametric equation). There are possible extraneous solutions so students have to determine the domain of the logarithmic functions for each equation. Activity Directions: There are 10 sections as in each section partners have to solve a logarithmic equation involving the parameter a for two different given values of the parameter. This is a wonderful way for students to work on different, but similar problems and it encourages them to help each other with methods. Student recording sheet and answer keys are provided.
