Calculus
In Calculus, students can literally grasp the math using TI-Nspire technology: they can grab and drag function graphs, linked objects, and geometric constructions, and observe how their numerical, algebraic, or graphical properties change.
The TI-Nspire technology allows you to:
  • Explore the relationship between integral and differential calculus by creating dynamic sketches that allow these connections to come alive
  • Create sketches that illustrate the concept of instantaneous rate of change graphically, numerically, and algebraically.
  • Construct a tangent to a graph and trace out the derivative of a function in real time.
  • Drag the endpoints of an interval and observe the effects on the area under a curve.
  • Create sliders or animations to investigate the antiderivative of a function and the solution to a differential equation.
  • Investigate, numerically and graphically, one-sided and two-sided limits of continuous and discontinuous functions including piecewise defined functions, rational functions, absolute value functions, trigonometric, exponential, logarithmic, and polynomial functions.
With TI-Nspire CAS technology, you can also:
  • Symbolically find limits, derivatives, and integrals of functions
  • Find exact answers to problems involving integrals and derivatives
  • Find exact areas under a curve
