1. Find the standard form of the equation by completing the square then graph the circle. y 5 x 5 –5 –5 We need to complete the square “twice” for both the x’s and y’s. a) 1 4 1 4 +2 +1 +1 +1 center: (1, –2) +1 r = 1 +1 +1
y 5 x -5 5 -5 total: 2. Find the equation of the circle in standard form. center: (–1,1) r = 3 +1 +1 +1
Copy into the worksheet: Ellipse sum Ellipse: The set of all points in a plane such that the ______ of the distances from two points in the plane is ___________. constant
Get out a piece of blank paper Steps to draw an ellipse: 1. Put the blank paper on the cardboard, and push the two pins through the paper and the board. 2. Draw the top half of an ellipse using a pencil and the string. Then draw the bottom half. Draw several different ellipses: • Move the pins further apart. • Move the pins closer. Consider the following questions: What happens to the shape when the pins are moved apart? Closer? Does the total length of the string ever change?
foci (plural of a focus) The two fixed points are called the ______. Every ellipse has ____ axes of ____________. The _________axis has a length ______ and the _________ axis has a length of _____. The ________ intersect at the _________ of the ellipse. The _____ always lie on the _________ axis. ____ is always larger than ____! 2 symmetry major 2a minor 2b axes center foci major a b y (0, b) x major (-a, 0) (-c, 0) (c, 0) (a, 0) (0, -b) minor
y (0, b) x (-a, 0) (-c, 0) (c, 0) (a, 0) (0, -b) d1 + d2 = 2a d2 d1 The sum of the distances from the _____ to any point on the ellipse is the same as the length of the ______ axis, or ___ units. This distance from the center to either _____ is c units. By the ___________ Theorem, a, b, and c are related by the equation _________, where a > b. foci 2a major By Pythagorean theorem, c2+b2 =d22 c2+b2 = d12 foci since here d1 = d2 and d1+d2 = 2a 2d1 = 2a d1 = 2a 2 d1 = d2 = a c2 + b2 = a2 c2 = a2 – b2 Pythagorean c2 = a2 – b2
