 * INTRODUCTION**

Task Process resources Evaluation

You are a team of producers and script writers of the CBS TV show - Numb3rs.

You have to design 1 new show for the next series involving the mathematical concept of trigonometry.

The scenario of the show has to have sound mathematical backgrounds, reasonable and life-related mystery FBI criminal stories.

You might recall from the CBS site the promotional material "...FBI agent Don Eppes, who recruits his mathematical genius brother, Charlie (David Krumholtz), to help the Bureau solve a wide range of challenging crimes in Los Angeles. From two very different perspectives, the brothers take on the most confounding criminal cases, aided by Don's partner, Terry Lake (Sabrina Lloyd), and new FBI recruit David Sinclair (Alimi Ballard). Although their father, Alan (Judd Hirsch), is pleased to see his sons working together, he fears their competitive nature will lead to trouble. Charlie's colleague, physicist Dr. Larry Fleinhardt (Peter MacNicol), urges Charlie to focus more on his university studies than on FBI business. Inspired by actual events, NUMB3RS depicts how the confluence of police work and mathematics provides unexpected revelations and answers to the most perplexing criminal questions.

Each team of 4 is to create and develop one episode for the series on these mathematical concepts.

All episodes will be reviewed by a panel of Mathematicians (your classmates).
