i think a sketch is drawing something from someone else's mind or drawing a subject. drawing is from your own mind

this question came from my geometry class so mathematics seemed more sensible to go with.

lgbasallote · Answer

anyway in regards with this question...sketching does not focus on the exact measurements..for example if i sketch a hyperbola...what i need to focus on are only the vertex and two other points to determine the opening of the parabola...but if i draw a parabola i have to take into accord every point on the parabola
