1 STOMP ROCKETS Precalculus. Ch. 4

2 MATERIALS: Rocket Launcher Other… – What else might you need?

3 GROUP TASK: One person holds the launcher. One person stomps to launch the rocket. Launch the rocket straight up into the air.

5 ESSENTIAL QUESTION: How high does your rocket travel? Your task is to gather data and use trigonometry to determine the maximum height of your stomp rocket.

6 YOUR PLAN: What data do you need to gather in order to answer this question?

7 FINAL PRODUCT: Turn in a lab report that explains how you used trigonometry to determine the maximum height of your rocket.
