Copy of Angry Birds Parabola
Directions.
Your task is to adjust the parabola using the three sliders to make two parabolas. The first must go through the angry bird on the sling-shot and hits the top block, then another that will hit the Pig.
A screenshot of each needs to be recorded in the google slide and the questions need to be answered in the google slide.

1) Use the sliders to make a parabola that goes through the sling-shot and hits the top block.
2)Take a screenshot of the picture and attach it to the google slide in our google classroom. Be sure to identify the vertex and the y-intercept.
Reset the parabola
3) Use the sliders to make a parabola that goes through the sling-shot and hits the green pig.
4) Take a screenshot of the picture and attach it to the google slide in google classroom. Be sure to identify the vertex and y-intercept.
Thinking and Analyzing
5) If the y-axis represents distance and the x-axis represents time, what does the y-intercept represent in terms of distance and time?
6) If the y-axis represents distance and the x-axis represents time, What does the the vertex represent in terms of distance and time?
7) If the y-axis represents distance and the x-axis represents time, what does the graph mean at the point the parabola hits the green pig?
