Study Notes
Conics Overview
- Conics are curves formed by the intersection of a plane with a right circular cone.
- Four main types of conic sections:
- Circle
- Ellipse
- Parabola
- Hyperbola
General Form of a Conic
- The general equation of a conic is represented as:
(Ax^2 + Bxy + Cy^2 + Dx + Ey + F = 0)
Circle
- Defined by:
- Condition: (B^2 - 4AC < 0)
- Both quadratic terms (Ax^2) and (Cy^2) must be present.
- Additionally, (B = 0) or (A = C).
Ellipse
- Defined by:
- Condition: (B^2 - 4AC < 0)
- Both quadratic terms (Ax^2) and (Cy^2) must be present.
- Must satisfy: (B = 0) or (A \neq C).
Parabola
- Defined by:
- Condition: (B^2 - 4AC = 0)
- Only one quadratic term is present, either (Ax^2) or (Cy^2).
Hyperbola
- Defined by:
- Condition: (B^2 - 4AC > 0)
- Both quadratic terms (Ax^2) and (Cy^2) must be present.
- Must satisfy: (A \neq C).
Example Equations and Their Types
-
Circle example:
Equation: (x^2 + y^2 - 3x + 4 = 0)- (A = 1), (C = 1); thus, (A = C).
- Result: Circle.
-
Ellipse example:
Equation: (3x^2 - 9x = -2y^2 - 10y + 6)- (A = 3), (C = 2); thus, (A \neq C).
- Result: Ellipse.
-
Parabola example:
Equation: (2x^2 - 3x - y + 7 = 0)- Only (Ax^2) is present; other term is absent.
- Result: Parabola.
-
Hyperbola example:
Equation: (2x^2 - 3y^2 + 2x - y + 22 = 0)- (A = 2), (C = -3); thus, (A \neq C).
- Result: Hyperbola.
