Grade Level: 10 - 12
Materials: One set of worksheets for each student
Objective: The student will be able to solve challenging problems from precalculus, including absolute value, trig identities, logarithms, imaginary numbers, binomial expansion, probability, infinte series, and functional notation.
Back in 1953, Roger Price invented a minor art form called the Droodle, which he described as "a borkley-looking sort of drawing that doesn't make any sense until you know the correct title." In 1985, Games Magazine took the Droodle one step further and created the Turvy. Turvies have one explanation right-side-up and an entirely different one turned topsy-turvy. The Turvy above was created by the Games editors and published in Games Magazine in May 1986.
To determine the titles to this turvy, solve the challenging problems in this puzzle. Then replace each numbered blank in the puzzle with the letter corresponding to the answer for that problem.
