Document Content and Description Below

Name: Anna Murphy Date: 6/12/17 Robot Portfolio Directions: In this portfolio, you will be graphing conic sections in order to design a robot. For all graphs that will be submitted, use graph paper ... . Introduction Congratulations! You have been selected by an engineering firm to design their newest robotic prototype. As of this moment, it is your job to come up with a purpose for the robot and incorporate various types of conic sections into its design. Task 1 Respond to the following questions. 1. What will your robot be able to do? My robot will have the ability to store brewed coffee, squirt coffee out of tube-arm into mugs, and have another arm that can hold mugs with a claw. 2. Which conic sections do you plan on using in your design? Make sure to use at least three. I will use two circles, an ellipse, and a parabola. Task 2 Choose three of the four conic sections that you learned about in this unit: parabolas, circles, ellipses, and hyperbolas. Make a detailed graph of each one that you intend on incorporating into your design. For each of these graphs, be sure to label important points such as vertices, foci, axes, and directrixes. Also, identify each graph with its equation. Make sure that the equation is the same one that will be used in your final design [Show More]
