This course is a condensed yet thorough walkthrough of how to use Desmos effectively on the Digital SAT Math section. Students will learn how to turn Desmos into a decision-making tool that improves speed, accuracy, and consistency across all score ranges, including students aiming for a perfect 800.
The Basics
We begin by building fluency. Students learn how to input equations efficiently, adjust graph windows, use sliders strategically, and interpret intersections quickly.
Systems of Equations
Students learn how to graph multiple equations at once and use intersections to instantly identify solutions. This includes linear systems, nonlinear systems, and word problems that translate into equations. Instead of relying solely on substitution or elimination, students recognize when graphing is faster and more reliable.
Intercepts, Minimums, and Maximums
This section focuses on extracting key information directly from graphs. Students learn how to identify x-intercepts, y-intercepts, and vertices, and how to interpret minimum and maximum values.
Inequalities and Number of Solutions
Students learn how to graph linear and quadratic inequalities, interpret shaded regions, and analyze systems of inequalities. They also learn how to determine whether equations have zero, one, or multiple solutions by examining intersections visually, reducing algebraic guesswork.
Evaluating Functions
Students practice evaluating functions directly in Desmos, including piecewise functions. This reinforces precision and allows for quick checking of answer choices during the test.
Regressions
One of the most powerful tools in Desmos, regressions allow students to generate equations from data tables instantly. Students learn how to model linear and quadratic relationships and use those models to answer prediction questions efficiently.
Equivalent Expressions
Students use Desmos to verify whether two expressions are truly equivalent.
Equations of a Circle
Students learn how to graph circles and identify centers and radii. Visualizing circles makes coordinate geometry questions significantly clearer.
Mean and Median
Finally, students learn how to use lists and tables in Desmos to calculate mean and median quickly and accurately, ensuring efficiency on statistics questions.
