Task 1 : Why are they called conic sections?
Each of the geometric figures are obtained by intersecting a double-napped right circular cone with a plane. Thus, the figures are called conic sections or conics.
Definition:A conic section is the intersection of a plane and a cone.
By changing the angle and location of
intersection, we can produce a circle, ellipse, parabola or hyperbola
Which are generally the different ways you can divide plane and a cone in a symmetrical way.

Task 1 : Circle If the plane cuts
completely across one nappe of the cone and is perpendicular to the axis of the cone, the curve of the section is called a circle. AND It’s a special case of Ellipse which you will see the next slide.

Task 1 : Ellipse If the plane isn't
perpendicular to the axis of the cone, it is called an ellipse.
An ellipse is the set of all points in a plane, the sum of the distances from two fixed points in the plane is constant.
Many comets have elliptical orbits.

Task 1 : Parabola If the plane doesn't cut
across one entire nappe or intersect both nappes, the curve of the intersection is called a parabola.
A parabola is the set of all points in a plane equidistant from a fixed point and a fixed line in the plane.

Task 1 : Hyperbola
If the plane cuts through both nappes of the cone, the curve is called a hyperbola.
The hyperbola is the set of all points in a plane. The difference of whose distance from two fixed points in the plane is the positive constant.

Task 1 : The use of conic sections
The Greeks discovered the properties that define conics in terms of points and lines. These properties are important tool for current day problems with the behaviors of atoms, molecules and outer space. Particles that move under the influence of an inverse square force field has a path that is described by conic sections.

1. (0,3) y = ax2 + bx + c3 = a(0)2 + b(0) + cc=3
2.(-2, 7) y = ax2 + bx + c7 = a(-2)2 + b(-2) + 34a-2b=4
3. (1, 4)y = ax2 + bx + c4 = a(1)2 + b(1) + 3a+b=1
4.
4a-2b=4a+b=1 b=1-a
5 .
4a-2(1-a)=44a-2+2a=46a=6a=1b=0
Equation : y =(1)x +(0)x + cy = x2+ 3
Task 3 Parabola You can find the equation of a line by knowing two points
from that line, know to find and equation of parabola you need to know three points. Find the equation of a parabola that pass through (0,3), (-2, 7) and (1, 4).

Task 4 Physics: The path of any thrown ball is parabola. Suppose a ball is
thrown from ground level, reach a maximum height of 20 meters of and hits the ground 80 meters from where it was thrown. Find the equation of the parabolic path of the ball, assume the focus is on the ground level.
Vertex (0,20)c= |1/a|=|1/80|=80Y=a(x-h)2+kY=-1/80(x-0)2+20(because it’s vertical)Y=-1/80x2+20

Task 4 Halley’s Comet It takes about 76 years to orbit the Sun, and since it’s path is
an ellipse so we can say that its movements is periodic. But many other comets travel in paths that resemble hyperbolas and we see it only once. Now if a comet follows a path that is one branch of a hyperbola. Suppose the comet is 30 million miles farther from the Sun than from the Earth. Determine the equation of the hyperbola centered at the origin for the path of the comet.
C=38 (76/2)a=15 (30/2)C2=a2+b2
382=152+b2 1444=225+b2
b2=1444-225b2=1219
Final equation:
