The For Developers section presents applets together with varied templates and the complete, object-oriented, easily-customizable source code that can be used by instructors for creating their own customized versions of the applets.״ http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=82447 This site provides flash animation and directions for common uses of the TI-83+. The text files require Adobe Acrobat Reader. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=87518 A collection of mathlets for Precalculus, Single Variable Calculus, Multivariable Calculus and Vector Analysis, Parametric Curves and Surfaces, Derivatives, Integrals and Integration Theorems, and Topology and Geometry. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=83065 This site "provides an eclectic mix of sound, science, and Incan history in order to raise students' interest in Euclidean geometry. Visitors will find geometry problems, proofs, quizzes, puzzles, quotations, visual displays, 'scientific speculation', and more." http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=86786 This website allows the user to explore the definitions and graphs of the circular functions sine and cosine. The sketches on this page will give the user a deeper understanding into the correlation between the unit circle and the sine and cosine waves. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=83207 Lines, segments, and rays are among the most fundamental objects in geometry, as well as Euler and Simpson lines. These nine JavaSketchpad applets can help you to understand and investigate some of the different lines that come up in geometry. Each line is defined, and its important properties are illustrated with interactive applets. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=86785 The geometric definition of a parabola is the set of all points whose distance from a fixed point, the focus, is equal to its distance from a fixed line, the directrix. On this web page, you will explore the geometric definition of a parabola and see how the focus and directrix effect the parabola's shape. You'll also see how parabolas can model different real world situations, including water fountains, projectiles, and the cables supporting the Verrazano Narrows Bridge. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=220706 The activity offers an opportunity to explore the properties of parabolas through a geometric perspective within your browser window. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=196055 Java Applet for the Towers of Hanoi
