The Challenge: Where would the angry birds have hit the ground if they hadn't crashed into anything on the way?

Consider This: This activity begins with asking students for guesses as to where each of the birds will land. This is where the grids may be helpful.

Steps to Getting Started:
1. First decide on where the origin will be and number the axes from there. Note: different groups my try different origins because each group should have the same value for a parabolic shape even if their h and k (vertex coordinates) values are different.
2. Plot points and then write your equations in vertex form:
y = a(xh)2 + k where (h,k) is the vertex.
Hint: Angry Bird #3 is the only one with a vertex in its graph, so it is best to move forward with that screenshot and overlaid grid.
3. Your goal is to be able to find the coordinates of the xintercept. You will be able to use your vertex and the starting point to find your a value.
4. Once you have found a, h, and k. Use this to find where Angry Bird #3 would have landed. Then use what you know to complete the equations for Angry Birds #1 and #2.
