 * __Arches VS. Parabolas__**
 * By: Sloan Gormley**
 * Arches:** Arches have a very similar design to parabolas. They both have a basic design of being curved at the top. fort example here is a picture of some arches.

This a basket ball court that has many arches.

This is a picture of a rock that looks like an arch.

Now here is a picture of a parabola to show the similarity.

This is a fountain that sprays to make a parabola.

You can see the similar design that the parabola and the arch have in common.
