The student consistently uses correct mathematical notation, symbols, and terminology throughout the exploration, including appropriate computer notation. Key terms and variables are defined and explained when first introduced. The main concepts are described in the introduction, including the rotation process of the functions and that the star pattern is enclosed in a circle of a given radius. Multiple forms of mathematical representation are present, but only used if appropriate. All mathematical calculations are explained, and any data presentation is described. However, the student should state the degree of accuracy for any rounded values and round results only at the end of the calculations thread. Additionally, some additional terms used in the exploration should be defined in detail. The student uses a deductive method and sets out logical proofs where appropriate, such as assuming that the volume of the star pattern revolution would approach the volume of a sphere. Finally, all graphs, tables, and diagrams are labeled and numbered at the bottom.
