Closed Captioned Video: Algebra Applications: Functions and Relations
The relationship between slope and grade in cycling is explored. Go on a tour of Italy through the mountains of Tuscany and apply students' understanding of slope. |
Applications of Functions and Relations, Conic Sections and Relations and Functions | |
Closed Captioned Video: Algebra Applications: Functions and Relations, 1 |
Closed Captioned Video: Algebra Applications: Functions and Relations, Segment 1: Introduction
Scientists use conic sections to map the trajectories of spacecraft in flight. The setting for this episode is a planned future flight to Mars. As the ship travels from Earth to Mars, parabolic, circular, and elliptical paths are explored. |
Applications of Functions and Relations, Conic Sections and Relations and Functions | |
Closed Captioned Video: Algebra Applications: Functions and Relations, 2 |
Closed Captioned Video: Algebra Applications: Functions and Relations, Segment 2: Parabolic Paths
The liftoff and pre-orbital path of the rock is described by a parabola. Students explore the properties of parabolas from the standpoint of the parametric equations that describe the horizontal and vertical directions of motion for the rocket. |
Applications of Functions and Relations, Conic Sections and Relations and Functions | |
Closed Captioned Video: Algebra Applications: Functions and Relations, 3 |
Closed Captioned Video: Algebra Applications: Functions and Relations, Segment 3: Circular Paths
The path of a rocket orbiting the Earth can be modeled with the equation of a circle. Students explore the quadratic relation and the parametric equations that can be used to model the path of a spacecraft orbiting Earth. |
Applications of Functions and Relations, Conic Sections and Relations and Functions | |
Closed Captioned Video: Algebra Applications: Functions and Relations, 4 |
Closed Captioned Video: Algebra Applications: Functions and Relations, Segment 4: Elliptical Paths
The planets orbiting the sun follow elliptical paths. In fact, the trajectory of a spacecraft traveling to Mars would also be elliptical. Students explore these various ellipses. |
