9.1The Parabola
Given an equation of a parabola, complete the square, if necessary, and then find the vertex, the focus, and the directrix and graph the parabola.
Slide 5- 4Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley
Parabolas
A parabola is the set of all points in a plane equidistant from a fixed line (the directrix) and a fixed point not on the line (the focus).
The line that is perpendicular to the directrix and contains the focus is the axis of symmetry. The vertex is the midpoint of the segment between the focus and the directrix.

Standard Equation of a Parabola with Vertex at the Origin
The standard equation of a parabola with vertex (0, 0) and directrix y = p is x2 = 4py.
The focus is (0, p) and the y-axis is the axis of symmetry.
The standard equation of a parabola with vertex (0, 0) and directrix x = p is y2 = 4px.
The focus is (p, 0) and the x-axis is the axis of symmetry.
Slide 5- 6Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley
Example
Find the focus, and the directrix of the parabola
Then graph the parabola.
Solution: We write
in the form x2 = 4py:
Thus, p = 4, so the focus is (0, p), or (0, 4). The directrix is y = p = (4).21

Slide 5- 7Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley
Example
Find an equation of the parabola with vertex (0, 0) and focus (3, 0). Then graph the parabola.
The focus is on the x-axis so the line of symmetry is the x-axis. Thus the equation is of the type y2 = 4px.
Since the focus (3, 0) is 3 units to the right of the vertex, p = 3 and the equation is y2 = 4(3)x, or y2 = 12x.

We see that h = 3, k = 2 and p = ¼, so we have the following:
Vertex (h, k): (3, 2) Focus (h, k + p):
(3, 2 + ¼) or (3, 9/4) Directrix y = k p:
y = 2 ¼, or y = 7/4

9.2The Circle and the Ellipse
Given an equation of a circle, complete the square, if necessary, and then find the center and the radius
and graph the circle. Given the equation of an ellipse, complete the square,
if necessary, and then find the center, the vertices, and the foci and graph the ellipse.
Slide 5- 15Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley
Circle
A circle is the set of all points in a plane that are at a fixed distance from a fixed point (the center) in the plane.
Standard Equation of a Circle
The standard equation of a circle with center (h, k) and radius r is
(x h)2 + (y k)2 = r2.
Slide 5- 16Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley
Example
For the circle
x2 + y2 + 2x + 6y 15 = 0 find
the center and the radius. Then graph the circle.

Ellipse
An ellipse is the set of all points in a plane, the sum of whose distances from two fixed points (the foci) is constant. The center of an ellipse is the midpoint of the segment between the foci.
The major axis of an ellipse is longer than the minor axis.

Standard Equation of an Ellipse with Center at the Origin (Major Axis Vertical)
Slide 5- 20Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley
Example
Find the standard equation of the ellipse with vertices (6, 0) and (6, 0) and foci (4, 0) and (4, 0). Then graph the ellipse.
Since the foci are on the x-axis and the origin is the midpoint of the segment between them, the major axis is horizontal and (0, 0) is the center of the ellipse. Thus the equation is of the form

Since the vertices are (6, 0) and (6, 0) and the foci are (4, 0) and (4, 0), we know that a = 6 and c = 4. These values can be used to find b2.
Thus the equation of the ellipse is
To graph, we plot the vertices, and the y-intercepts are (0, 4.47) and (0, 4.47). We plot these points and connect the four points with a smooth curve.

9.3The Hyperbola
Given an equation of a hyperbola, complete the square, if necessary, and then find the center, the vertices, and the foci and graph the hyperbola.
Slide 5- 28Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley
Hyperbola
A hyperbola is the set of all points in a plane for which the absolute value of the difference of the distances from two fixed points (the foci) is constant. The midpoint of the segment between the foci is the center of the hyperbola.

Example
Find an equation of the hyperbola with vertices (0, 3) and (0, 3) and foci (0, 5) and (0, 5).
Solution: We know that a = 3 and c = 5. We find b2.
Since the vertices and foci are on the y-axis, we know that the transverse axis is vertical. We can now write the equation of the hyperbola:

9.4Nonlinear Systems of Equations
Solve a nonlinear system of equations. Use nonlinear systems of equations to solve applied
problems. Graph nonlinear systems of inequalities.
Slide 5- 41Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley
Nonlinear Systems of Equations
The graphs of the equations in a nonlinear system of equations can have no point of intersection or one or more points of intersection.
The coordinates of each point of intersection represent a solution of the system of equations.
When no point of intersection exists, the system of equations has no real-number solution.
We can solve nonlinear systems of equations by using the substitution or elimination method.

Modeling and Problem Solving
Example: For a student recreation building at Southport Community College, an architect wants to lay out a rectangular piece of land that has a perimeter of 204 m and an area of 2565 m2. Find the dimensions of the piece of land.
1. Make a drawing and label it. 2. Translate. We now have the following:
Perimeter: 2l + 2w = 204 Area: lw = 2565
Area = lw

If w = 57, then l = 2565 w = 2565 57 = 45.
If w = 45, then l = 2565 w = 2565 45 = 57.
Since the length is generally considered to be longer than the width, we have the solution l = 57 and w = 45.
4. Check. If l = 57 and w = 45, the perimeter is
2(45) + 2(57) = 204.
The area is 57(45) = 2565. The numbers check.
5. State. The length of the piece of land is 57 m and the width is 45 m.

Let L be a fixed line (the directrix); let F be a fixed point (the focus), not on L; and let e be a positive constant (the eccentricity). A conic is the set of all points P in the plane such that

Since e < 1, it’s an ellipse with vertical directrix 6 units to the right of the pole. The major axis lies along the polar axis.
Let = 0, and π to find vertices: (2, 0) and (6, π).
The center is (2, π).
The major axis = 8, so a = 4.

Graphing Parametric Equations
We have graphed plane curves that are composed of sets of ordered pairs (x, y) in the rectangular coordinate plane. Now we discuss a way to represent plane curves in which x and y are functions of a third variable t.
One method will be to construct a table in which we choose values of t and then determine the values of x and y.

Parametric Equations
If f and g are continuous functions of t on an interval I, then the set of ordered pairs (x, y) such that x = f(t) and y = g(t) is a plane curve.
The equations x = f(t) and y = g(t) are parametric equations for the curve.
The variable t is the parameter.
Slide 5- 83Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley
Determining a Rectangular Equation for Given Parametric Equations
Solve either equation for t.
Then substitute that value of t into the other equation.
Calculate the restrictions on the variables x and y based on the restrictions on t.

Determining Parametric Equations for a Given Rectangular Equation
Many sets of parametric equations can represent the same plane curve. In fact, there are infinitely many such equations.
The most simple case is to let either x (or y) equal t and then determine y (or x).

Applications
The motion of an object that is propelled upward can be described with parametric equations. Such motion is called projectile motion. It can be shown that, neglecting air resistance, the following equations describe the path of a projectile propelled upward at an
angle with the horizontal from a height h, in feet, at
an initial speed v0, in feet per second:
x v0 cos t, yh v0 sin t 16t 2 .
We can use these equations to determine the location
of the object at time t, in seconds.
