<p>do any of you know sites where you can find equations for graphs that making funny designs? (i.e: fish, animal, car...?)</p>
<p>here is one i found (VERY INAPPROPRIATE!!!!)</p>
<p>set your calculator to polar mode (mode->POL) and 2nd Function Zoom to Polar GC</p>
<p>then type cos(theta) + cos(2theta)...then trace the graph</p>
<p>i'm assuming this is with a TI-82/83/80something?</p>
<p>What are the window settings?</p>
<p>yes it is with the ti84 plus</p>
<p>the window settings are:
0min=0
0max=360
0step=7.5
Xmin=-2.5
Xmax=2.5
XScl=1
ymin=-2.5
ymax=2.5
yscl=1</p>
<p>tell me if you get it to work. remember, you have to switch to polar mode at two different places.</p>
<p>Thanks! It works! :D and...it could be the Hindenberg! Instead of something <em>very</em> inappropriate.</p>
<p>"Oh, the inhumanity!"</p>
<p>That was amusing but it shouldn't be so disproportional.</p>
<p>Only on CC...</p>
<p>interesting (yet sick) find, though. I'll just assume that WAS the Hindenburg...</p>
<p>when i said inappropriate i was talking about for college confidential. half the kids on this site have never had a sip of alcohol in their life. most would freak out if they tried this on their calc, and tell an moderator/administrator to ban me from CC. how about this one:
costheta + cos6theta. in polar mode as well
ps what is Hindenburg??</p>
<p>you'd be surprised how many "sip" alcohol</p>
<p>really? i thought these people are perfect (i.e. never cussed in their life, etc...)</p>
<p>oh, no. you will learn, young one.</p>
<p>whoa. relax bro. calling me 'young one' you have to be kidding me</p>
<p>I was kidding, I meant it in a "you have much to learn, grasshopper" sort of thing. Sorry if it seemed to be a negative thing.</p>
<p>sorry about that :)</p>
<p>Heeee. It is true, so many have "sipped" alcohol. There are so many people who have good/nice/perfect personas at the school but on the weekends their wild personas come out. :D</p>
<p>i graph equations on my calculator to make cool stuff too lol. but now, after i discovered the DRAW button, i draw (mostly harry potter fan art lol) on my ti-83. its SO awesome!!! soon i will post a link on this thread to show u one of my pics</p>
<p>how do you do that?
ps. my grapher just stopped working after my sat. so i dont have one anymore:(</p>
<p>There's a "DRAW" button? Where?</p>
<p>The_Who: Well, at least it broke down <em>after</em> you completed your SAT!</p>
<p>i have a calc test tommorow</p>
<p>Well then...that's..harsh. (We had a calculus test today, too) But calculus doesn't really require the calculator except for the graphing... :| Okay, got your point. Snitch a TI-83 from someone. ;)</p>
<p>on the ti83, [2nd] then <a href="above%20it%20says%20DRAW">prgm</a>, then scroll to bottom and click on PEN, and on your graph you can doodle (go to Format, AxesOff for better appearance)</p>
