This Learn Check file is a review of writing conic sections given the graph of a conic section. Students are asked to use the graphs to write the equations for a ellipse, circle, parabola, and hyperbola.

[Free Registration/Login Required] This flipchart is a simple and basic flip chart showing how to find the center and radius of a circle that is in standard form as well as completing the square for equations of circles that are not in...

Learners will compare the number of circles in two boxes. If they are equal, they will write a number sentence. Explanations and examples are included.

Students can investigate the graphs of conic sections in standard form. Cirlce, ellipse, and hyperbola graphs are included.

This task has two separate goals: the first is to solve a pair of equations, one quadratic and the other linear. The second goal is to observe that a point that lies on a circle gives rise to a Pythagorean triple. Aligns with A-REI.C.7.

In the July 2013 issue of United Airlines' Hemisphere Magazine, a pilot responded to a question about how far in the distance he could see at different altitudes. The solution involved right triangles, lines of tangency to a circle, and...

Examples of conic sections are given and the equation for their standard form is also given.

Understand the design criteria that should be met by any gear design to meet the American Gear Manufacturers Association standards. The accompanying video discusses how the design inputs (power transmitted, space constraints, and...
