  1. 10.1 Parabolas

  2. 10.1 Parabolas A parabola is the set of all points (x,y) that are equidistant from a fixed line (directrix) and a fixed point (focus) not on the line. Focus (h, k + p) Vertex (h,k) Directrix y = k - p

  3. Standard Equation of a Parabola (x - h)2 = 4p(y - k) Vertical axis Opens up (p is +) or down (p is -) (y - k)2 = 4p(x - h) Horizontal axis Opens right (p is +) or left (p is -) p is the distance from the center to the focus point.

  4. Ex. Find the vertex, focus, and directrix of the parabola and sketch its graph. y2 + 4y + 8x - 12 = 0 Now complete the square. y2 + 4y = -8x + 12 y2 + 4y + 4 = -8x + 12 + 4 (y + 2)2 = -8x + 16 Write down the vertex and plot it. Then find p. (y + 2)2 = -8(x - 2) 4p = -8 p = -2 What does the negative p mean? left

  5. Directrix x = 4 V(2,-2) F(0,-2)

  6. Ex. Find the standard form of the equation of the parabola with vertex (2,1) and focus (2,4). First, plot the two points. Which equation will we be using? Vert. or Horz. axis Right, since the axis is vertical, we will be using (x - h)2 = 4p(y - k) What is p? p = 3 Now write down the equation. (x - 2)2 = 12(y - 1)

  7. Ellipses

  8. Ellipses Center point (h,k) Focus point a b F F c V V a Minor axis Major axis An ellipse is the set of all points (x,y), the sum of whose distances from two distinct points (foci) is constant. a2 = b2 + c2

  9. Standard Equation of an Ellipse Horz. Major axis Vert. Major axis (h,k) is the center point. The foci lie on the major axis, c units from the center. c is found by c2 = a2 - b2 Major axis has length 2a and minor axis has length 2b.

  10. Sketch and find the Vertices, Foci, and Center point. Sketch and find the Vertices, Foci, and Center point. x2 + 4y2 + 6x - 8y + 9 = 0 First, write the equation in standard form. (x2 + 6x + ) + 4(y2 - 2y + ) = -9 (x2 + 6x + 9) + 4(y2 - 2y + 1) = -9 + 9 + 4 (x + 3)2 + 4(y - 1)2 = 4 C (-3,1) V (-1,1) (-5,1)

  11. c2 = a2 - b2 C (-3,1) c2 = 4 - 1 V (-1,1) (-5,1) Foci are:

  12. Eccentricity e of an ellipse measures the ovalness of the ellipse. e = c/a In the last example, what is the eccentricity? The smaller or closer to 0 that the eccentricity is, the more the ellipse looks like a circle. The closer to 1 the eccentricity is, the more elongated it is.

  13. Find the center, vertices, and foci of the ellipse given by 4x2 + y2 - 8x + 4y - 8=0 First, put this equation in standard form. 4(x2 - 2x + 1) + ( y2 + 4y + 4) = 8 + 4 + 4 4(x - 1)2 + (y + 2)2 = 16 C( , ) a = b = c = Vertices ( , ) ( , ) Foci ( , ) ( , ) e = Sketch it.

  14. Hyperbolas

  15. The standard form with center (h,k) is Note: a is under the positive term. It is not necessarily true that a is bigger than b.

  16. Let’s take a look at the first hyperbola form. V(h-a,k) V(h+a,k) c b b C(h,k) F(h-c,k) F(h+c,k) a c is the distance from the center to the foci. Note: If c is the distance from the center to F, and all radii of a circle = , then the hyp. of the right triangle is also c. Therefore, to find c, a2 + b2 = c2

  17. Sketch the hyperbola whose equation is 4x2 - y2 = 16. 4x2 - y2 = 16 First divide by 16. Write down a, b, c and the center pt. a = 2 b = 4 Note: a is always under the (+) term. C(0,0) Now find c. Let’s sketch the hyperbola.

  18. F F V V Now, we need to find the equations of the asymptotes. What are their slopes and one point that is on both lines?

  19. Sketch the graph of 4x2 - 3y2 + 8x +16 = 0 4(x2 + 2x ) - 3y2 = -16 +1 + 4 Now, divide by -12 and switch the x and y terms. 4(x + 1)2 - 3y2 = -12 C( , ) a = b = c = e = Sketch

  20. V( , ) ( , ) F( , ) ( , ) F V V Eq. of asymptotes. F

  21. Classifying a conic from its general equation. Ax2 + Cy2 + Dx + Ey + F = 0 If: A = C AC = 0 , A = 0 or C = 0, but not both AC > 0, AC < 0 Both A and C = 0
