Conic Section Project Wapakoneta High School（圆锥曲线项目Wapakoneta高中）.pdf

Conic Section Project Objective—Students will be able to…  use conic section equations to create a piece of “art work” on the TI-83 or TI-84  create a table in Word  use the program, Math Type (an equation editor) or equation editor found on your computer, to input equations into documents  set a schedule Materials: Graph paper Colored Pencils Graphing Calculator Project: Draw a picture on the coordinate plane using mathematical equations. Requirements: 1. Sketch the drawing of what you wish to create through equations on a half sheet of plain white paper. 2. A drawing on graph paper to scale with the scale marked on the graph paper 3. A colored drawing on graph paper to scale but without the scale 4. A drawing on the graphing calculator of the conic “art work” 5. A print-out of the calculator drawing—colored. 6. Copy of the drawing that can be used to grade accuracy of the work (not colored). This copy should include the number (refer to the table) of each corresponding equation pointing to the specific part it is representing. It also should have the axes, origin and units marked. Remember the units should match those of your calculator window. 7. Print out of the calculator screen each time equations are inputted into the y= window. You will have several of these by the time you are completed. 8. Project must contain a minimum of 15 equations made up of at least 2 circles, 2 parabolas, 2 hyperbolas, 2 lines and 2 ellipses (a circle will not count as
