Project 3: Art with functions
- Quadratic and trigonomic functions (GER)
These artworks were created in a lesson in which I had to replace another teacher. Students of grade 9 in this class had worked with GeoGebra very rarely, last time a long time ago. They know the math of quadratic and trignomic functions. Parabolas could be easily constructed by using a tool that creates a parbola on the basis of three points. It was new for my students that functions could be rotated.
Here some examples of their work.
- Art in linear functions(RO)
- Art in trigonometric functions (RO)
- Art in exponential and logarithmic function(RO)
- Art in square function(RO) (may)

I tried to construct it in the same way with GeoGebra Norma Lisa Neiman
