Red Bird, Yellow Bird, Blue Bird, and Black Bird are angry with the pigs. The pigs stole the birds’ eggs. The birds want their eggs back and will stop at nothing to get them. The flight path of the birds can be modeled with a parabola. Use “x” as the distance and “f(x)” as the height.

Directions: Each group will receive the flight path of four birds. For each bird the group must answer the following questions

o What is the maximum height your bird flew?o What was the total distance your bird traveled?o Does the bird hit either of these pigs?

Make sure to include all items from the rubric for each bird.

For every bird each member of the group should have the following items.

Sketch of flight path of bird (if not given):

Quadratic Model for flight of bird (if not given):Items needed Points PossibleExplanation of how equation was obtained. 2Correct equation given 2Equation is written using function notation 2
