Parent (Functions) Graphs

We will be looking at:
Linear Functions

Quadratic Functions

Cubic Functions

Rational Functions

and Exponential Functions

This week in AGA !

We created a quadratic function from two to three points, and changed it into the vertex form of the quadratic equation.




Can you follow the steps and provide the quadratic equation for each problem below?

Quadratic Functions and Equations

For the last two weeks, we have discussed and reviewed quadratics.

We discussed the important parts: vertex, amplitude, and axis of symmetry.

We discussed missiles being launched. We discussed pumpkins being launched.


We discussed writing a quadratic function in vertex form and graphing it.


We discussed finding the zeroes using the quadratic formula.

WORD WALL IS DUE or ZERO!!

Go to padlet.com and make your word wall. Send it to me if you haven't. Some of you forgot to put pictures on it and I notified you. It is now a zero, if it is not done soon.

Using missiles to find the vertex!

Completing the Square helps to find the vertex (Time, Distance).

Rockets and Quadratics

We started talking about - "Quadratics can help measure distance through time."

S. T. E. G.  with Quadratics

Go in order .. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5!

New Stuff in Honors Geometry

We had an interesting discussion on Pythagorean Triples, prime ones.

We eventually started talking about special right triangles - 30 60 90.

Proportional RIght Triangles

Here are two videos that we watched in class. The narrator speaks on separating the problem to see the comparisons to be made.

In some classes, we used three methods to figure out the height of buildings, objects, etc.

The Mirror Method

The Book Method (Geometric Mean)

The Clinometer
