Good morning. I have inserted a 12 x 12 table with x axis labeled from 0-6
seconds and y axis from 0 - 1200 feet. I am now trying to draw a smooth
half of a quadratic curve (arc) from the 600 ft on the y, hit required
points all the way down to x axis at 6 sec. The curve must be a smooth
quadratic curve.
first, I tried using the auto shapes: curve. It was very difficult to be
accurate enough to hit all the required ordered pairs on the way down. When
finished, I went back to edit points, but it still looked a little jagged in
places. Next, I tried "free form" with the same results.
How do I get a perfect arc, hitting on the table, and look like a quadratic
function?
thanks for any input. (version2003)
