Writing an Equation of a Translated Parabola (–2, 1) Choose form: Begin by sketching the parabola. Because the parabola opens to the left, it has the form where p < 0. (y – k)2=4p(x– h) Write an equation of the parabola whose vertex is at (–2, 1) and whose focus is at (–3, 1). SOLUTION Find h and k: The vertex is at(–2, 1), so h = –2 and k = 1.

CLASSIFYING A CONIC FROM ITS EQUATION The equation of any conic can be written in the form Ax2+ Bxy + Cy2+ Dx + Ey+ F= 0 which is called a general second-degree equation in x and y. The expression B2 – 4AC is called the discriminant of the equation and can be used to determine which typeof conic the equation represents.
CONIC TYPES CONCEPT SUMMARY (B 2 – 4AC) DISCRIMINANT CLASSIFYING ACONICFROM ITS EQUATION The type of conic can be determined as follows: TYPE OF CONIC < 0, B = 0, and A = C Circle < 0, and either B 0, or A C Ellipse = 0 Parabola > 0 Hyperbola If B = 0, each axis is horizontal or vertical. If B 0, the axes are neither horizontal nor vertical.
