My Anamorphic 3D Drawing
Anamorphic is the distortion of an image that appears 3D only from a certain perspective. To make our anamorphic drawing, we printed a picture of tumbling blocks and traced it on a piece of glass. Then we taped our poster board to the table and started making points on it. Once all the points were on the board, we used a meter stick to trace the lines. The hardest part of this project was keeping the same perspective while marking the dots. Our picture is a projection. A projection is the process of projecting an image. Depending on how you look at it, it will have different perspectives based on the angle it was projected onto the paper. our image is a projection, because we adjusted the angle we were viewing the picture and drew it on the paper how we saw it.

Hexaflexagon
My Hexaflexagon uses rotational symmetry. On one side there are different colored lines that match up when they are put together. No matter which way you spin it, it will look the same.
ReflectionMy favorite feature of the hexaflexagon is the third side. It looks almost like stained glass. One thing that I would change about my hexaflexagon is the side with the orange and red. I t doesn't have any symmetry. During this project I learned that I lose my patience when it comes to coloring things like this.

Snail Trail GGB Lab
To create the snail trail lab, we had to use geogebra. We made a big circle in the middle of the screen. Then we divided it into six equal parts. We put a point in one of the sections. Then we reflected it into each of the other sections. We hid the circle. Then we hit the Trace button on each point. If you drag the original point the others will move too, creating beautiful snail trail. During this project, I learned that I really enjoy using geogebra.
Two Rivers GGB Lab
PROMPT- You want to build a house in between two rivers. There is a sewage treatment plant where they meet. Your house has to be 5 miles from the sewage treatment plant, and the shortest distance to each river.
This picture shows the best place for your house. It is the shortest distance from both rivers and five miles from the sewage treatment plant. The house lies on both perpendicular bisectors of the rivers.
This picture shows the best place for your house. It is the shortest distance from both rivers and five miles from the sewage treatment plant. The house lies on both perpendicular bisectors of the rivers.
This house does not meet the requirements. It is not between the two rivers like it is supposed to be. It is still 5 miles from the sewage plant, but it is too far from both rivers. The house is supposed to be between the two rivers.
Burning Tent GGB Lab
PROMPT-A rider is traveling from point D to point E between a river and a
pasture. Before the rider gets to E, he wants to stop at the pasture to
feed his horse and at the river to water his horse.
This picture meets the requirements because it shows the shortest path to help the rider get from one location to another and feed and water his horse along the way.

feed his horse and at the river to water his horse.
This picture meets the requirements because it shows the shortest path to help the rider get from one location to another and feed and water his horse along the way.
This picture does not meet the requirements. It is not the shortest path to feed and water his horse. It is a lot longer than it should be.
