The graph below displays the of the height of a bird over the span of time. Describe what might be happening to the bird at each part of the graph. Explain all of your mathematical thinking on how the movement of the bird is shown in the graph. Explanation: Part A:
Part B:
Part C:

Based on the graph, the bird is initially flying from a certain height and not the ground(A). It flies from a certain height to reach a higher altitude and then flies steadily without changing it's altitude until reaches a certain point(B). The bird is perhaps at rest and not moving before it starts to descent down to the ground. The altitude decreases over time at C.

Step-by-step explanation:

rectangle: 9 1/8 x 4 1/9 = 37 37/72in

parallelogram: b times h= 10.3 x 6.2 = 63.86

trapezoid: a+b/2 times h= 42.5

volume of prism: l times w times h= 36
