Math Links for Week Ending Dec. 27th, 2019

Featured Links
I have been playing around with these linear representations of equations (Equation Strips) for a while now. And now I have a @Desmos version of them that work as an activity (with video instructions for customizing) or as a stand alone demonstration tool. Check out all the versions (paper & pencil, websketch, @Desmos etc) at the updated link below. Perfect for any beginners of solving equations.

Here is a nice little activity from @YummyMath about Pythagorean triples. It connects colouring and patterns in the numbers.

A nice 3D Christmas tree using 2D Desmos from @Giohio. Great fun for kids dealing with advanced functions.

I like this proof without words to connect the sum of squares to the sum of cubes. It really could be used to talk about mathematical proof with any grade. Especially since it comes in the form of a @Geogebra sketch

  1. I rarely share my story with people, not only because it put me at the lowest point ever but because it made me a person of ridicule among family and friends. I put all I had into Binary Options ($690,000) after hearing great testimonies about this new investment

     strategy. I was made to believe my investment would triple, it started good and I got returns (not up to what I had invested). Gathered more and involved a couple family members, but I didn't know I was setting myself up for the kill, in less than no time all we had put ($820,000) was gone. It almost seem I had set them up, they came at me strong and hard. After searching and looking for how to make those scums pay back, I got introduced to maryshea03@gmail.com to WhatsApp her +15623847738.who helped recover about 80% of my lost funds within a month.
