Some of the Project Requirements Create a drawing/design on graph paper (cartoon

character, sports object or mascot, design or a scene—BE CREATIVE!!). It should include (at least) the following 12 graphs (or pieces of graphs in your creation: a.     2 circles b.     2 horizontal or vertical ellipses (or 1 of each) c.      1 horizontal parabola d.     1 vertical parabola e.      1 horizontal or vertical hyperbola f.       2 lines g.     1 absolute value graph h. any 2 more conic equations of your choice

More Project Requirements

Create a table with four vertical columns titled as indicated and fill in the information for each numbered graph of your sketch.

Then… Just WRITE THE PROGRAM!!

Problems Students May Encounter Solving Equations For “Calculator” or

“y = ‘s” form can be tricky Finding equations of parabolas &

hyperbolas Using Restrictions Making small errors when typing in

program & finding those errors!
