A catenary is produced by hanging a chain from two points some distance apart. The equation for a catenary is the hyperbolic cosine. One simple example of a catenary can be found if you look at the power lines running between two poles. A parabola is produced by putting a hanging chain or cable under an equally dispersed load. An example of this can be seen on a suspension bridge, the cable hanging from two towers with the road below hanging from vertical cables attached to the main suspension cables.

How big is the gateway arch?
The Gateway Arch is a 630-foot-high monument in St. Louis, in the U.S. state of Missouri. Clad in stainless steel and built in the form of a flattened catenary arch, it is the tallest man-made monument in the United States, Missouri's tallest accessible building, and the world's tallest arch.

Why did Leonardo da Vinci invent the parabolic compass?
Yes, he invented the Parabolic compass (a mathematical compass)!
What is the comparison between common arch and inverted arch?
The "inverted arch" is used when a sideways, or inward load, is to be resisted. The "common arch" supports a vertical load.
What is the strongest arch?
Tacoma narrow bridge.
What is an Arch of an inverted catenary shape?
One is the "Gateway To The West" arch in St. Louis, Missouri. It is also possible McDonalds Restaurants have a double inverted catenary arch shape. It resembles a letter M in script form.
What is the mathematical term for the St. Louis Arch.?
It is a catenary, as defined by the following mathematical equations: y = cosh(x) or y = (e^x + e^-x)/2 A catenary is the shape which a flexible linear object with constant mass will naturally hang in when it's endpoints are fixed. The classic example is a cable or a chain. Catenary's have a practical application in arch construction because the force of the weight of the higher portions of the arch is always directed into the lower portions of the arch, making it very self supporting. This is why the Arch is constructed as a catenary, and why it is still standing.
How many steps in St. Louis arch?
there are not very many you go up to then top in an elevator that is shaped like a pod
What about different kinds of arches used in architecture?
There are three different configurations of arches including the fixed arch, the two-hinged arch, and the three-hinged arch. These configurations determine how stable the arch will be. Types of arches include the triangular arch, semi-circular arch, segmental arch, rampart round arch, lancet arch, equilateral pointed arch, and jack arch. Additional types of arches include the trefoil arch, horseshoe arch, three-centered arch, elliptical arch, inflexed arch, ogee arch, reverse ogee arch, Tudor arch, and parabolic arch.
How was the arch created?
The Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri was created from a competition winning design submitted by Eero Saarinen. The design was tweaked through several stages until the final flattened catenary arch was agreed upon.

What are the similarities between parabola and catenary?
The Catenary and Parabola are different curves that look similar; they are both "U" shaped and symmetrical, increasing infinitely on both sides to a minimum.
What are the different forms of parabolic equations?
