GeoGebra Book: Quadratic Basketball 5

In this GeoGebra book, you'll use two apps to explore the properties of quadratic functions. Both apps show a person shooting a basketball. You are asked to trace their shot with a parabola using sliders. The first app gives you sliders for the standard form, and the second app gives you sliders for the vertex form. Which formula is easier to use in this case?
