Putting Algebraic Curves in Perspective

Ever wonder what happens when you combine graphing algebraic curves with drawing in perspective? The result uncovers some beautiful relationships between seemingly different shapes, and all because of what happens when you include infinity through projective geometry. This video was a project for MA 721 - Projective Geometry, as part of the Master of Science program in Mathematics at Emporia State University.
