Algebra II, Track 1
Logo Project (3rd Quarter)
Designing A Logo
The logo pictured is the symbol for the Olympic Games.
These five rings represent the five parts of the world,
Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, and the Americas. At least
one of the colors of the logo appears in the flag of every
nation. The interlocking rings symbolize the meeting of
athletes from all over the world.
A logo is a symbol that visually represents an organization.
A good logo will often suggest or explain something about the
organization it represents. In this project, you will design a
logo for an organization that interests you.
Project Goal:
Use a graphing calculator to design a logo
composed of any combination of the following:
 Linear Functions
 Quadratic Functions
 Cubic Functions
 Polynomial Functions
 Absolute Value Functions
 Exponential Functions
 Conics
 Stat Plots
Materials Needed:
 11” X 14” poster board (Use Vertically)
 Markers, crayons, etc
 8 ½ “ X 11” computer printout of equations

Project Directions:
1. Sketch your logo idea. Your logo design should meet the following
criteria:
 The logo should be simple and easy to read.
 The logo should be distinctive and easily understood.
 The logo should feature information about the organization’s
functions, services, or products.
2.
Use your graphing calculator to enter equations to draw your logo
design.
3.
You have available seven (7) equations. You may need to restrict
your domain to properly replicate your design.
4.
You may also use your stat plots to complete your design.
5.
Adjust your window to best display your design.
6.
Using your USB port, link your calculator to your computer. Use
the screen capture feature of TI Connects to import your equations,
window size, and graph to a word document.
7.
Your document should be headed with the name of your
organization. In a brief paragraph, describe the organization.
8.
Print out this document and glue it to the back of your poster
board.
9.
Draw your design on the front of your poster board. You may use
color to enhance your logo, but it should closely resemble your
calculator graph.
