Try matching the following graphs with their corresponding function types: A periodic wave that oscillates between -1 and 1.

The degree of a polynomial function is the highest power of the variable in its expression. The degree dictates the maximum ...

All quadratic functions have the same type of curved graphs with a line of symmetry. The graph of the quadratic function \(y = ax^2 + bx + c \) has a minimum turning point when \(a \textgreater 0 \) ...

What if instead of defining a mesh as a series of vertices and edges in a 3D space, you could describe it as a single function? The easiest function would return the signed distance to the closest ...

If \(f(x) = x^2\), then \(af(x) = a(x^2)\). This tells us that we need to multiply each of the \(y\) coordinates on the graph by \(a\) in order to stretch the original graph. Looking at some ...

It's a common joke that Python makes a great calculator in its interactive mode. You can make it an even better one with the built-in math module, which contains a lot of the same math functions you ...

There is no avoiding the constant chatter about AI these days. Really, it’s been months. As a math teacher, this struggle over new technology feels oddly familiar. More than 30 years ago, the National ...
