A method for generating Pythagorean triples is presented and demonstrated with several examples. Its relationship to another method is shown and several interesting related facts are proven. (LS)

A conceptually elementary and geometrically based algorithm is presented to indicate how trigonometric functions can be calculated without using calculus. (MN)

Chapters 1-3 of the special materials written for low achieving students in grades 7-8 by SMSG include flow charting, elementary coordinate geometry, and functions. Included for student use are many tables which are to be used to shorten computational processes. Each chapter also includes pretest exercises, instructional lessons and exercises, and…

A classroom photography activity is outlined that motivates learning of mathematical topics such as estimation, geometry, ratio, measurement, and algorithms. (MP)

The algorithms for finding cube roots is approached by slicing a cube. (SD)

This publication contains the substance of all papers submitted at the fall 1974 Association of Teachers of Mathematics in New England (ATMNE) conference. As the title indicates, the focus of the publication is directed toward mathematical applications. The 25 papers cover topics ranging from applications at the elementary school level to those…
