This unit we got to study and learn about Qudratics! It all started with the area equation and learned how to convert that into vertex (y = a(x-h)² +k) and standard (ax² + bx + C) form. Within these formulas we learned about the appliance of vertices and x/y intercepts to parabolas that these formulas created. Then we learned about the factored form [y = a(x-r)(x-s)]. We used different methods to convert a form to another. We used are diagrams to help us convert forms but some we just learned to do it on our heads. We also decided to create questions that applied quadratics to our modern world. We researched and looked for things we see everyday that actually relate to parabolas and quadratics. My question was ¨How does Quadratics help with the building of Water Fountains. How parabolas help the trajectory of the water to fit in certain distance so the water fountains can be build in certain places. I think that the overall process was not as complex and went well. It wasn hard because I knew what I wanted to do and had an idea of how to design it. One challenged I faced was to fit the graphics into the graph so it would answer the questions and match my reults. After I was able to accomplish this it was just putting in the information. One part I really liked was learning about how water fountains are really related to quadratics and how the topic itself really helps on how the produce and release water. It's always fun to be able to apply what you learn in your classroom to real life things or situations. Something I would do differently was how much I solved for. The equation was really easy because I already at the vertex and the intercepts and becuase the question itself was not hard. I think I would like to ask more indepth questions that are more focused on little details that are required in the making of, for example, water fountains.
