Chapter 9 Conic Sections Objectives: Classify a conic section as the intersection of a plane and a double cone. Use the distance and midpoint formulas. Standard: 2.8.11.E. Use equations to represent curves.
Example 1 - Graph each equation and identify the conic section. Be sure to use a square viewing window!!! This equation represents a circle. This equation represents a hyperbola.
Example 1 continued ** c. d.
Example 3 ** Find the distance between P(2, 3) and Q(-3, -8). Give an exact answer and an approximate answer rounded to the nearest hundredth.
Example 4** An EMS helicopter is stationed at Hospital 1, which is 4 miles west and 2 miles north of an automobile accident. Another EMS helicopter is stationed at Hospital 2, which is 3 miles east and 3 miles north of the accident. Which helicopter is closer to the accident?
Example 5a Midpoint Formula
Example 5b ** Find the coordinates of the midpoint, M, of a line segment whose endpoints are A(2.5, 5.5) and B(8.5, -4.5)
Example 6b** The endpoints of a diameter of a circle are A(-3, 2) and B(5, 4). Find the center, circumference, and area of the circle.
