Graph sketching

Experiment with the interactivity of "rolling" regular polygons, and explore how the different positions of the dot affects the distance it travels at each stage.

Experiment with the interactivity of "rolling" regular polygons, and explore how the different positions of the dot affects its speed at each stage.

Can you sketch graphs to show how the height of water changes in different containers as they are filled?

Experiment with the interactivity of "rolling" regular polygons, and explore how the different positions of the dot affects its vertical and horizontal movement at each stage.

How many intersections do you expect from four straight lines ? Which three lines enclose a triangle with negative co-ordinates for every point ?

What biological growth processes can you fit to these graphs?

Various solids are lowered into a beaker of water. How does the water level rise in each case?

The illustration shows the graphs of fifteen functions. Two of them have equations $y=x^2$ and $y=-(x-4)^2$. Find the equations of all the other graphs.

This problem challenges you to sketch curves with different properties.
