I tried to use it to see if I could see fireworks from my house once. I spent an hour or two before I realized it was actually a trigonometry problem and just had to figure out the angles.

The only other time was when I made a chart for a subreddit to show their average growth rate. I made them some art and a discord, and it was really cool to see the community flourish.

I find myself using parabolas a lot more often.
