9.1 Intro to Conics A Circle is the set of all points, in a plane, such that each point is equidistant from a given point, the center. EQUATION: A Parabola is the set of all points, in a plane, that are equidistant from a given point, the focus, and a given line, the directrix. EQUATIONS:
9.1 cont’d. Opens up/down Opens left/right Vertex : (h,k) Axis of Symmetry : x = h y = k Focus: (h, y+p) (h+p, k) Directrix: y = k – p x = h – p p is the distance from the vertex to the focus or vertex to the directrix. (p is directional) PICTURES
9.1 Examples Find the Standard Form Equation for each Parabola: 1. V (2, 3) Focus (2, 5) 2. V (-1, 4) D: x = 1 Find Everything: Equation: Vertex: Focus: Directrix:
9.2 Ellipses An Ellipse is the set of all points, in a plane, such that the sum of each points’ distances from two fixed points, the foci, is constant. Equations: Center : (h, k) Horizontal -Major Axis- Vertical Vertical -Minor Axis- Horizontal C is the distance from the Center to the Foci. Length of Major Axis – 2a Length of Minor Axis – 2b
9.3 Hyperbolas A Hyperbola is the set of all points, in a plane, such that the difference of each points’ two distances from two fixed points, the foci, is constant. Equations: Center: (h,k) Right/Left OPENSUp/Down a is the distance from Center to vertices. “box” method for graphing, asymptotes. 2 “parabolas” Slopes of asymptotes:
9.5 Parametric Equations If f and g are continuous functions of t on an interval, I. The set of ordered pairs (f(t), g(t)) is a plane curve, C. Parametric Equations t is the parameter Equations: Plot points in order of increasing values of t, you trace the curve in a specific direction. Orientation of the curve. Examples: Eliminating the Parameter 1.Solve for t in one eq. 2.Substitute into 2nd eq. 3.Rectangular Equation
