Heh, heh, heh. God, I hate trig. Never thought it would come to Elfwood, did you? Well, you were wrong! Wa ha ha ha ha! (Extra credit if you can name the type of graph and its period).

Hee ^^;; sorry, but every year i get idiots instead of math teachers who don't know anything about math o___________@;;;

:-) Michelle Smith replies: "*pats Marisa on back* I commiserate with you. There is a special place in tartarus for bad teachers. Something to do with heads stuck in sand and compasses somewhere else!"

Very cute :^) Wish he had visited me in my boring math classes!

:-) Michelle Smith replies: "He might have, he lives in the eyelids of sleepy students in math class."

Wow, great dragon! I love it!

:-) Michelle Smith replies: "Thanks!"

o_O I would say it's a sine graph, but it's not crossing the origin, unless you've done some messing around with the function 10. Anyway, the sine graph has a period of 2pi. Of course, I'm not in trig (pre-cal woo I'm such an idiot when it comes to math), so I could be totally off-base here 2. I like the dragon idea though.

9 Michelle Smith replies: "Well, it could be a sine graph that's been pushed over, or it could be a cosine graph, but it would still have been nudged a little bit. And then there's that curly bit with the tail... So, any answer is right! One million points! Oh, and good luck in pre-cal. I'm sure your not stupid. It's just evil."

This is really cool. The graph makes it look almost like the dragon is from some old parchment with plans to perhaps...discover the secrets of the dragon.

:-) Michelle Smith replies: "Thanks! That's an interesting idea, I could see an alchemist doing that. Oh, and I love your gallery."

LOL. Maths and dragons, a very funny concept and well drawn too. I like the sketchy look and the light colouring - it makes it look pro.

:-) Michelle Smith replies: "Well, I'm happy you like them. Thanks for visiting me!"

'Tis a cosine graph, and its period would be 360 degrees.
Nice pic.

1 Michelle Smith replies: "Correctimundo! Well, at least I MEANT for it to be a cosine graph, anyway, and it's about 360. So, ten bonus points on your next test! "

Its a great dragon, I love it! I like the sort of washy-background colors. The dragon sort of reminds me of the creatures that wander though my head in Geometry class . . . well, nice pic.
