Applets

I found one that shows the graph of the inverse of sin. I thought it was really cool to use to show students how they are different, as well as what point is the inverse at when on the sin function. Another one I found is dealing with tangents to a circle, it shows what the tangent line looks like at all the points on a circle. I think this applet would be awesome to use when you are just starting to look at tangent lines and what they look like. The third applet that I thought was really cool was the ladder sliding applet, this is when students are working on areas of triangles and how they might change. The applet uses a story problem to get the students interested and then shows how it changes when the ladder slides down the wall. Mostly I am really interested in how they got this fundamental theorem applet to work the way that it does. It seems very complicated but super interesting.
