Desmos Art Project

In this project, you get to combine your mathematical knowledge with your artistic creativity.

Use the Desmos online graphing calculator (https://www.desmos.com/calculator) to plot a

set of functions that create a picture. You must use at least 25 functions. You may use any
type of function we’ve learned so far this year: polynomial, rational, piece-wise,
trigonometric. You can add shading by using inequalities.

Save your finished project (include your name in the title), and submit it to me by using the
“share graph” button on the top right and emailing it to ahultstrand@ccapanama.org

In addition, I want you to draw four of the graphs by hand on a sheet of graph paper
(maximum of two functions per coordinate plane).

 Be sure to label the graph

 Do not just copy the curve from Desmos, but I want to see appropriate points and
lines plotted as if you were graphing it without the help of technology

This project will be worth the same as 2 quiz grades.

Your masterpiece is due at the beginning of class Monday, March 6.

We’ll view everyone’s submissions, and vote on the “Best in Show”. The winner will get a
special prize!

You will be graded on (not equally weighted)
