It simplified the different functions as I got the hang of where to put <, |x|, 1/2x, 2x, square roots, and exponents in order to change graph types, reflect, stretch, and transform lines. Overall, this project gave me room to experiment with different graphs and see in action what part of an equation changes the pieces of the graph. Especially in shading, this made work simpler as it was reflecting and limiting instead of writing a new equation, and in some cases, due to absolute value, the shading was put on both sides. What to turn in: A stapled packet with the picture on front, and the list of equations and descriptions behind the graph. ![]() My main strategies included experimenting, symmetry, and duplicating lines such as parabolas to keep both sides lined up. Salisbury with my discovery, and he explained absolute values to me and what limited them does. It was an accident when I was typing a square function, I hit x twice. Something new I discovered was absolute values. I didn’t need that much help except for a few moments of jumpstarting a solution for shading or reflecting square root functions. So I made a website that converts picture images into Desmos graphs. Hello Desmos people I really got into drawing pictures with Desmos. Some small issues came up when shading the wings because there are so many different pieces, but if an equation didn’t work I simply split it into two smaller sections. Picture to Desmos Graph Converter Online. I was expecting challenges going into this project, but there were surprisingly few issues and I caught on to the flow of the project pretty quickly. I also used restrictions for absolute value, shading, and general neatness. ![]() I used reflection, horizontal shifts, stretches, and expansion/compression to make small adjustments and to make sure not every curve was identical (an example of this is the bottom of the hilt handle or the inward curve of the top wings). Square root function was used for the top of the shield. Parabolas/quadratic equations were used for large curves and even was used to make sure the ‘wings’ were symmetrical and lined up in a curve. I used linear equations as a base or for simpler lines such as the blade of the sword. Sword, Shield, and Skyward Crest from The Legend of Zeldaįor many of the triangles, I used absolute value for symmetry and more concise equations (as I could use one equation in the place of two).
