What are Conic Sections?What is the standard form for a Circle? • What are Conic Sections? • 2 videos • Introduction to Conics (8 min.)Videos\Intro to Conics+Circles\Introduction to Conic Sections A.rv • Introduction to Circles (8:15 min.)Videos\Intro to Conics+Circles\Conic Sections Intro to Circles B.rv • Circle is All points equidistant, r, from a single point, the center. • Standard “center radius” form of a Circle? Center at (0,0) Center at (h,k) (x,y) r r (0,0) (x,y) (h,k) Examples follow

  3. Examples: • Center (0,0) and radius 3  (x-0)2+(y-0)2=9 x2+y2=9 • Center (0,2) and radius 11  (x-0)2+(y-2)2 = 121 • Center (3,4) and radius 2  (x-3)2+(y-4)2 = 4 • Center (-4,0) and radius 5  (x+4)2+(y-0)2 = 25 • Center (0,0) and radius 1/2  (x-0)2+(y-0)2 = 1/4 32

  4. Write the standard equation: • Center (0,0) and radius 6 • Center (0,0) and radius 9 • Center (0,0) and radius 11 • Center (0,0) and radius 5 • Center (2,0) and radius 6 • Center (3,0) and radius 9 • Center (0,–2) and radius 3 • Center ( 2, 3) and radius 6 • Center (–3, –5) and radius 5 • Center (–11, –12) and radius 4 Circles

  9. Ellipse -- foci • An Ellipse has 2 foci • Definition (reworded): an Ellipse is the set of points where the sum of the points’ distances from the 2 foci is a constant. • Determining the location of the 2 foci… ..\7th 5 weeks\Foci of an Ellipse C2.rv • Important relationships: • Let the focus length be equal to c • c2=a2-b2 • d1+d2=2a • Eccentricity (flatness), e = c/a, d2 d1 a c Examples follow

  10. Ellipse • What is the ellipse’s equation (in standard form) given… • Vertices: (±5,7) Foci: (±3,7) • c2=a2-b2 • Since, a=5 & c=3, then b=4 (-5,7) (-3,7) (3,7) (5,7) a c Note: The Foci are always on the major axis !!

  11. Write the Ellipse’s equation…and then ID its Eccentricity Sketching the ellipse first, might HELP ! • Vertices: (±13,1) Foci: (±12,1) • Vertices: (±4,7) Foci: (±3,7) • Vertices : (2,1), (+14,1) Foci: (4,1), (+12,1) • Vertices: (7,±5) Foci: (7,±3) b a c

  13. “Back from Spring Break” Review √ √ √ √ √ How to quickly Identify the conic from the equation (future) ?

  14. “Back from Spring Break” Review • Circle: • Ellipse: • c2=a2-b2 • d1+d2=2a • Eccentricity (flatness), e = c/a • Parabola: • if vertex is at (0,0) • if vertex is at ( h, k) (x,y) ( h, k+b) r ( h–a, k) ( h+a, k) (h,k) ( h, k–b) d2 d1 We have studied parabolas that point up or down (so far). a c

  15. “Back from Spring Break” Review set of all points that are the same distance (equidistant), r, from a single point, the center. Circle – Define In Your Words (mathematically) Ellipse – set of all points in a plane, the sum of whose distances from two fixed points (foci) is constant. • Parabola – set of points in a plane that are equidistant from a fixed line (the directrix) and a point (the focus).

  16. Finding Parabola focus when vertex is at (0,0) • Parabola – opening up or down, the equation is: Point 1: And if the vertex (h,k) is at (0,0), then becomes Similarly if we have a parabola opening left or right then the x and y is switched around Point 2: p is the distance from the vertex • to the focus and • to the directrix Note By the definition of a parabola the vertex is always midway between the focus and the directrix. • Point 3: Hence, to find that distance divide the coefficient of the variable (the variable having a 1 as its exponent) by 4.

  17. Finding Parabola focus when vertex is at (0,0) • Reference Drawn examples on board SUMMARIZING… Remember the vertex is at ( 0, 0 )… • if the parabola opens ‘up’ then the focus is at ( 0, p) • if the parabola opens ‘down’ then the focus is at ( 0, -p) • if the parabola opens to the ‘right’ then the focus is at ( p, 0) • if the parabola opens to the ‘left’ then the focus is at ( -p, 0)

  18. Find the Parabola’s focus… • set 4p=16 and solve for ‘p’ • solved… p=4 • therefore the focus is at ( 0, 4) • set 4p= –1/2 and solve for ‘p’ • solved… p= –1/8 • therefore the focus is at ( 0, –1/8) • set 4p=9 and solve for ‘p’ • solved… p = 9/4 = 2 ¼ • therefore the focus is at ( 2 ¼, 0) Opens up Opens down Opens right

  19. Homework • Page # 363, problem #s 1, 2, 3, 4, 11,12 • Page #363, problem #s 13, 14, 15, 16 • Page #363, problem #s 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 • Due Wednesday • Due TBD • Due TBD

  20. Find the Parabola’s directrix… • set 4p=16 and solve for ‘p’ • the focus is at ( 0, 4) -- see previous slide • and the directrix, y = –4 • set 4p= –1/2 and solve for ‘p’ • the focus is at ( 0, –1/8) • and the directrix, y = +1/8 • set 4p=9 and solve for ‘p’ • the focus is at ( 2 ¼, 0) • and the directrix, x = –2 ¼ Opens up Opens down Opens right

  21. Extra Credit – week of April 11th • Eccentricity = e = c/a • Explain what the effect is on the ellipse’s shape as the focus’s distance from the center (‘c’) approaches the vertex’s distance from the center (‘a’) -- in other words, when ‘e’ approaches a value of 1. Due at end of period.

  22. Background/Archive

  23. 2nd Period • Please note that the next school-wide writingprompt will take place on Tuesday, 4/5/11 during 2nd period.   The prompt is as follows: • "The use of Cornell Notes, Flash Cards and Concept Maps are currently used to help you organize your notes and make your test preparation easier.  What other learning activities would you like to see incorporated in your class?" After the essays have been completed, please compile or ask a student to make a list of the ideas submitted by your class.  Give this list to your ILT representative by the end of the day on 4/5/11. This will help the entire school!
