Slide 13- 6 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Parabolas When a cone is cut as shown in the first figure on the previous slide, the conic section formed is a parabola. Parabolas have many applications in electricity, mechanics, and optics.

Slide 13- 7 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Equation of a Parabola A parabola with a vertical axis of symmetry opens upward or downward and has an equation that can be written in the form y = ax 2 + bx + c. A parabola with a horizontal axis of symmetry opens right or left and has an equation that can be written in the form x = ay 2 + by + c.

Slide 13- 8 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Parabolas with equations of the form f (x) = ax 2 + bx + c were graphed in Chapter 11. Graph: y = x 2 – 6x + 10. y = (x 2 – 6x) + 10 y = (x 2 – 6x + 9 – 9) + 10 y = (x 2 – 6x + 9) + (–9 + 10) y = (x – 3) 2 + 1. The vertex is at (3, 1).

Slide 13- 9 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution continued xy 3241532415 1225512255 Calculate and plot some points on each side of the vertex. As expected for a positive coefficient of x 2, the graph opens upward.
10
Slide 13- 10 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley A second way to find the vertex of a parabola is to recall that the x-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola given by y = ax 2 + bx + c is –b/(2a). For the last example, y = x 2 – 6x + 10, the x-coordinate of the vertex is – (–6)/[2(1)] = 6/2 = 3. To find the y-coordinate of the vertex, we substitute 3 for x: y = 3 2 – 6(3) + 10 = 1.
11
Slide 13- 11 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley To Graph an Equation of the Form y = ax 2 + bx + c 1. Find the vertex (h, k) either by completing the square to find an equivalent equation y = a(x – h) 2 + k; or by using –b/(2a) to find the x-coordinate and substituting to find the y-coordinate.

Slide 13- 12 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley 2. Choose other values for x on each side of the vertex, and compute the corresponding y-values. 3. The graph opens upward for a > 0 and downward for a < 0.
13
Slide 13- 13 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Equations of the form x = ay 2 + by + c represent horizontal parabolas. These parabolas open to the right for a > 0, open to the left for a < 0, and have axes of symmetry parallel to the x-axis.
14
Slide 13- 14 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution Graph: x = –y 2 + 6y – 7. x = – y 2 + 6y – 7 x = –(y – 3) 2 + 2. x = –(y 2 – 6y + 9) – 7 – (–9) x = –(y 2 – 6y ) – 7 The vertex is at (2, 3) and the parabola opens to the left. Complete the square to find the vertex: Example

16
Slide 13- 16 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley To Graph an Equation of the Form x = ay 2 + by + c 1. Find the vertex (h, k) either by completing the square to find an equivalent equation x = a(y – k) 2 + h; or by using –b/(2a) to find the y-coordinate and substituting to find the x-coordinate.

18
Slide 13- 18 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Circles One conic section, the circle, is a set of points in a plane that are a fixed distance r, called the radius (plural, radii), from a fixed point (h, k), called the center. If (x, y) is a point on the circle, then by the definition of a circle and the distance formula, it follows that
19
Slide 13- 19 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Squaring both sides gives the equation of a circle in standard form.
20
Slide 13- 20 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Equation of a Circle (Standard Form) The equation of a circle, centered at (h, k), with radius r, is given by
21
Slide 13- 21 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Note that for h = 0 and k = 0, the circle is centered at the origin. Otherwise, the circle is translated |h| units horizontally and |k| units vertically.
22
Slide 13- 22 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution Find an equation of the circle having center (1, 7) and radius 4. Using the standard form, we obtain (x – 1) 2 + (y – 7) 2 = 4 2, or (x – 1) 2 + (y – 7) 2 = 16. Example
23
Slide 13- 23 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution Find the center and the radius and then graph the circle x 2 + y 2 + 2x – 6y + 6 = 0. (x + 1) 2 + (y – 3) 2 = 4 x 2 + 2x + y 2 – 6y = –6 x 2 + 2x + 1 + y 2 – 6y + 9 = –6 + 1 + 9 (x – (–1)) 2 + (y – 3) 2 = 2 2 Complete the square twice to write the equation in standard form. Example

26
Slide 13- 26 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley When a cone is cut at an angle, as shown below, the conic section formed is an ellipse. To draw an ellipse, tie a loose string between two tacks and draw an oval by moving the pencil while stretching the string tight.
27
Slide 13- 27 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Ellipses Centered at (0, 0) An ellipse is defined as the set of all points in a plane for which the sum of the distances from two fixed points F 1 and F 2 is constant. The points F 1 and F 2 are called foci, the plural of focus. The midpoint of the segment F 1 F 2 is the center.
28
Slide 13- 28 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Equation of an Ellipse Centered at the Origin The equation of an ellipse centered at the origin and symmetric with respect to both axes is
29
Slide 13- 29 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley To graph an ellipse centered at the origin, it helps to first find the intercepts. The y- intercepts are (0, b) and (0, –b). The x- intercepts are (a, 0) and (–a, 0). If a > b, the ellipse is said to be horizontal and (a, 0) and (–a, 0) are referred to as vertices (singular vertex). If b > a, the ellipse is said to be vertical and (0, b) and (0,–b) are then the vertices.
30
Slide 13- 30 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley (0, b) (0, -b) (a, 0) (-a, 0) (a, 0) (0, b) (0, -b) (-a, 0) Plotting these four points and drawing an oval- shaped curve, we graph the ellipse. If a more precise graph is desired, we can plot more points.
31
Slide 13- 31 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Using a and b to Graph an Ellipse For the ellipse the x-intercepts are (–a, 0) and (a, 0). The y-intercepts are (0, –b) and (0, b). For a 2 > b 2, the ellipse is horizontal. For b 2 > a 2, the ellipse is vertical.
32
Slide 13- 32 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution Graph the ellipse Here a = 4 and b = 2. Since a > b, the ellipse is horizontal. The x-intercepts are (–4, 0) and (4, 0), and the y-intercepts are (0, –2) and (0, 2). Plot these points and connect them with an oval-shaped curve. Example
33
Slide 13- 33 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Ellipses Centered at (h, k) Horizontal and vertical translations, similar to those used in Chapter 8, can be used to graph ellipses that are not centered at the origin.
34
Slide 13- 34 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Equation of an Ellipse Centered at (h, k) The standard form of a horizontal or vertical ellipse centered at (h, k) is The vertices are (h + a, k) and (h – a, k) if horizontal; (h, k + b) and (h, k – b) if vertical.
35
Slide 13- 35 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution Graph the ellipse Here a = 2 and b = 4. The center is at (2, –1). Plot 2 units to the left and right of the center, as well as 4 units above and below the center. These points are (2, 3), (2, –5), (0, –1), and (4, –1). Example
36
Slide 13- 36 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Ellipses have many applications. Communications satellites move in elliptical orbits with the earth as a focus while the earth itself follows an elliptical path around the sun.
37
Slide 13- 37 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley A medical instrument, the lithotripter, uses shock waves originating at one focus to crush a kidney stone located at the other focus.

39
Slide 13- 39 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Hyperbolas A hyperbola looks like a pair of parabolas, but the shapes are actually different. A hyperbola has two vertices and the line through the vertices is known as the axis. The point halfway between the vertices is called the center. The two curves that comprise a hyperbola are called branches.

41
Slide 13- 41 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Equation of a Hyperbola Centered at the Origin The equation of a hyperbola centered at the origin* has its equation as follows: (Horizontal axis); (Vertical axis).
42
Slide 13- 42 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley To graph a hyperbola, it helps to begin by graphing two lines called asymptotes. The asymptotes are not part of the graph, but serve as guidelines for an accurate graph. Note that both equations have a 1 on the right-hand side and a subtraction symbol between the terms. For the discussion that follows, we assume a, b > 0.
43
Slide 13- 43 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Asymptotes of a Hyperbola For hyperbolas with equations as shown below, the asymptotes are the lines
44
Slide 13- 44 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley For hyperbolas, a and b are used to determine the base and height of a rectangle that can be used as an aid in sketching asymptotes and locating vertices.
45
Slide 13- 45 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution Graph Here a = 4 and b = 2. The asymptotes are The asymptotes pass through (4, 2), (4, –2), (–4, 2) and (–4, –2). Example
46
Slide 13- 46 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution Graph Here a = 1 and b = 4. The asymptotes are The asymptotes pass through (1, 4), (–1, 4), (1, –4) and (–1, –4). Example
47
Slide 13- 47 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Equation of a Hyperbola in Nonstandard Form Hyperbolas having the x- and y-axes as asymptotes have equations as follows: xy = c, where c is a nonzero constant.
48
Slide 13- 48 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution Graph xy = 2. We first solve for y: y = 2/x. xy ½ 1 2 4 -½ -2 -4 4 2 1 ½ -4 -2 -½ Note that x cannot be 0 and for large values of |x|, y will be close to 0. The x- and y- axes serve as asymptotes. Find some solutions and keep them in a table. Example

Slide 13- 49 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Hyperbolas have many applications. A jet breaking the sound barrier creates a sonic boom with a wave front the shape of a cone. The intersection of the cone with the ground is one branch of a hyperbola.

54
Slide 13- 54 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Classify the graph of each equation as a circle, an ellipse, a parabola, or a hyperbola. a.3x 2 = 5 – 3y 2 b. 2x + 1 + y = y 2 c. 4x 2 = 2 + y 2 d. 28 – 3x 2 = 7 + 6y 2 Example
55
Slide 13- 55 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution a. 3x 2 = 5 – 3y 2 Add 3y 2 to both sides: 3x 2 + 3y 2 = 5. Since A = B, this is an equation of a circle. b. 2x + 1 + y = y 2 Since 2x + 1 + y = y 2 has only one variable squared, the graph is a parabola.
56
Slide 13- 56 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution d. 28 – 3x 2 = 7 + 6y 2 Subtract 28 from both sides and also subtract 6y 2 from both sides: –3x 2 – 6y 2 = –21. Multiplying both sides by –1 we get 3x 2 + 6y 2 = 21. Since A is not equal to B and they have the same sign, the graph is an ellipse. c. 4x 2 = 2 + y 2 Subtract y 2 from both sides: 4x 2 – y 2 = 2. Since A and B have opposite signs, the graph is a hyperbola.

60
Slide 13- 60 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Recall that graphing, elimination, and substitution were all used to solve systems of linear equations. To solve systems in which one equation is of first degree and one is of second degree, it is preferable to use the substitution method.
61
Slide 13- 61 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution Solve the system x 2 + y 2 = 20, (1) (The graph is a circle.) y – 2x = 0. (2) (The graph is a line.) First solve the linear equation, (2), for y: y = 2x. (3) We could have solved for x instead. Then substitute 2x for y in equation (1) and solve for x: x 2 + (2x) 2 = 20 x 2 + 4x 2 = 20 5x 2 = 20 Example
62
Slide 13- 62 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution continued x 2 = 4 Now substitute these numbers for x in equation (3) and solve for y: For x = 2, y = 2(2) = 4; For x = –2, y = 2(–2) = –4. It is left to the student to confirm that the pairs (2, 4) and (–2, –4) check in both equations. The pairs (2, 4) and (–2, –4) are solutions to the system. Using the principle of square roots Check:
63
Slide 13- 63 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Systems of Two Nonlinear Equations We now consider systems of two second- degree equations. Graphs of such systems can involve any two conic sections. On the next slide are some ways in which a circle and a hyperbola can intersect.
64
Slide 13- 64 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley
65
Slide 13- 65 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley To solve systems of two second-degree equations, we either substitute or eliminate. The elimination method is generally better when both equations are of the form Ax 2 + By 2 = C. Then we can eliminate an x 2 - or y 2 -term in a manner similar to the procedure used in Chapter 8.
66
Slide 13- 66 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution Solve the system 3x 2 + 2y 2 = 66, (1) x 2 – y 2 = 7. (2) Multiply equation (2) by 2 and add: 5x 2 = 80 x 2 = 16 3x 2 + 2y 2 = 66 2x 2 – 2y 2 = 14 x = Example
67
Slide 13- 67 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley There is no x-term, and x 2 = 16 whether x = 4 or –4, thus we can substitute 4 and –4 for x simultaneously in equation (2): ( ) 2 – y 2 = 7 16 – y 2 = 7 –y 2 = – 9 y 2 = 9 y =. Thus if x = 4, then y = 3 or y = –3; and if x = –4, then y = 3 or y = –3. The possible solutions are (4, 3), (4, –3), (–4, 3), and (–4, –3). Solution continued
68
Slide 13- 68 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Check: The solutions are (4, 3), (4, –3), (–4, 3), and (–4, –3). 3x 2 + 2y 2 = 66 x 2 – y 2 = 7 ( ) 2 – ( ) 2 7 16 – 9 3( ) 2 + 2( ) 2 66 3(16) + 2(9) 7 = 748 + 18 66 = 66 True Solution continued
69
Slide 13- 69 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Problem Solving We now consider applications that can be modeled by a system of equations in which at least one equation is nonlinear.
70
Slide 13- 70 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Solution A picture frame with a picture takes up an area of 216 in 2. The perimeter of the frame is 60 in. Find the dimensions of the frame. 1. Familiarize. We draw and label a sketch, letting l = the length and w = width, both in inches. Area = lw = 216 l w Perimeter = 2l + 2w = 60 Example
71
Slide 13- 71 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley 2. Translate. We have the following translation: Perimeter: 2l + 2w = 60; Area: lw = 216. 3. Carry out. We solve the system 2l + 2w = 60, lw = 216 to get (18, 12) and (12, 18). Since length is usually considered to be longer than width, we have the solution l = 18 and w = 12. Completing the solution is left to the student.
72
Slide 13- 72 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley 4. Check. If l = 18 and w = 12, the perimeter is 2(12) + 2(18), or 60. The area is (18)(12), or 216. The numbers check. 5. State. The length is 18 in. and the width is 12 in.
