Practical Parabolas, Projectiles, and Google Sheets
by Abraham Rosengard
Students will use projectile motion as practical example to better understand how parabolas (quadratic equations) are built. Students will also tabulate x and y values on Google Spreadsheets and graph how the projectile motion will look over time.
