	Conics		2014-02-01
		Kassidy pose la question : Hey, I have searched through all the questions about conics and how people use them in the real world, but none of them were very specific on how they are applied and the process, why it's so important etc. I have a project due asking these questions and it's been very difficult finding the right answer, if you could name jobs, how they are use and specifically applied that would be greatly appreciated.

	Parabolas in the real world		2007-05-18
		Katherine pose la question : Hi, my name is Katherine, and my mean old math teacher just assigned us a test in which we have to write two examples of how parabolas are used in the real world, each one page single spaced, size 12!! I know you have already answered some questions like this, but I still don't understand the whole baseball thing, and any other way parabolas are used. And how I can write a whole page on it. But that's my problem, not yours, I just need help with a little explanation on how parabolas are actually used today. I know this might be kind of confusing for you, but imagine how it is for me!! Stephen La Rocque lui répond.

	The focus of a parabola		2006-10-01
		Lily pose la question : I have a mathematical assignment which includes applications of parabolas, hyperbolas and ellipses in the real world. I have been searching the internet and now I am ware that most of the applications of parabolas have a connection with what people call "the focus". However, I do not think I clearly understand what "the focus" of a parabola is. Would you please explain it to me? Penny Nom lui répond.
	Quadratics		2005-01-05
		Usman pose la question : Hi, in my Grade 11 Functions math class we have been assigned the task of finding jobs and careers related to quadratics, I have done many searches but have been unsuccessful, then I saw your website and e-mailed. I also have to use an example of a math problem that the job uses, then solve it, this will all compile on bristol board for a presentation. I would greatly appreciate it if you could send me some links and references of sources that refer to this subject. Harley Weston lui répond.
	An elliptical table		2005-01-03
		Roger pose la question : Want to make an elliptical table, say the long (major) axis is 4 feet, and the short (minor) axis is 3 feet. I can construct this figure, but I'm trying to figure out what the exact dimension of a rectangle within this ellipse will be if I make the table a drop leaf type where the drop dimensions are equal for each end of both the long and short axes. Intuitively, it looks like there is one and only one solution. Penny Nom lui répond.
	Practical applications: parabolas and Pythagoras		2004-10-24
		Connie pose la question : Provide two examples of real life objects that incorporate parabolic shapes. Explain the reason why the parabolic shape was used in each object. I need at least one practical application of the Pythagorean Theorem. Penny Nom lui répond.
	Uses of conic sections		2003-04-01
		William pose la question : My name is William and I am doing a research paper on conic sections for my 12th grade math class. Part of the project is to find two conic sections in our world today and explain what there purpose is. I really need help in this area because I've been searching the internet for where conic sections are used in our world today and I really can't find anything. If you can tell me specific building or a pyramid that contains conic sections that would be great. Or even something in the universe would be helpful. Leeanne Boehm lui répond.
	Parabolas		2002-02-03
		Kuang pose la question : -Who is credited for working with or studying the Parabola? -What is a conic section? -What does a parabola look like? -How is a parabola formed? -Where and how are parabolas used today in the real world? Harley Weston lui répond.
	Quadratics		2001-05-16
		John pose la question : I am in the final stages of a math project and I need to interview an expert for the last part. Please try to answer at least a few of these questions. How do you use quadratic equations in your everyday life? Do you find being a math expert very helpful in life? Is the quadratic equation useful to you? Why did you decide to become a math expert? What do you think is the most important function of the quadratic equation? Harley Weston lui répond.
	Bridges and parabolas		2000-11-18
		Lauren pose la question : My name is Lauren, and Im a secondary school student in Ontario. For my gr11 advanced math class I have to find out how and why parabolics are used in arch bridges and write 3 paragraphs on it. People who cohse satelites and whatnot are lucky - I've found a ton of info, but for arch bridges there seems to be nothing. Harley Weston lui répond.
