Half-Pipe+Skate+Ramp+-+Assessment

Initial Planning Notes
Half pipe: build it, come up with solutions, what would have to happen to the graph if you wanted to go slower, what would happen to the graph if you wanted to go faster. Google sketchup.

What Will You Do?
1. Build a skate park with 4 half pipes using either google sketch up or 3-D scale models 2. Each half pipe must have different diminsions showing the effects of the change in //a// in the quadratic equation y = ax². How would you change your equation to increase your vert? 3. Each half pipe must also include the effects of change on c in the quadratic equation y = ax² + c (The deck would be your x axis at ground level if your ramp is below ground. For example a pool would be below ground level and the pool side would be the x axis.) 4.
