This brief lesson shows how to find the equation for an ellipse given its foci and vertices and presents a problem to try. Includes a short quiz. It is 1 of 4 in the series titled "Finding The Equation For An Ellipse."

The resource discusses quadratic functions. Topics examined are parabolas, the vertex, the axis of symmetry, and standard form.

Find a quick, concise explanation of angles and types of angles. Several examples are given to help you understand how angles are formed and the different types of angles.

Identify the form of a quadratic function that immediately reveals a given feature of that function. Features in question are the y-intercept of the graph, the zeroes ("roots") of the function, and the vertex of the parabola. Students...

Identify the form of a quadratic function that immediately reveals a given feature of that function. Features in question are the y-intercept of the graph, the zeroes ('roots') of the function, and the vertex of the parabola.

Find the zeroes ("roots") of quadratic functions and the vertex of their parabolas. Functions are given in standard, vertex, and factored form. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly,...

Find the zeroes ('roots') of quadratic functions and the vertex of their parabolas. Functions are given in standard, vertex, and factored form.

Students will write an equation in slope-intercept form given two points on the line; write an equation in Ax + By = C form given slope and one set of coordinates; and prove lines to be parallel or perpendicular given vertices of...

Based off of the hit television show NUMB3RS, this lesson use graph theory to examine social network analysis. Students form complete graphs with different colored edges (representing acquaintance or non-acquaintance), and determine how...

In this task, students are shown three unit squares and two line segments connecting two pairs of vertices. They are asked to find the area of a triangle formed by intersecting lines. They can solve it using coordinate geometry or...

Through a mixture of online exploration, and teacher instruction, students will discover how Hyberbolas are formed and will be able to use the key components (center, vertices and the asymptotes) to generate the equation of a graph.

Through a mixture of online exploration, and teacher instruction, students will discover how parabolas are formed and will be able to use the key components from a graph (vertex, focus and directrix,) to generate the equation of a graph.
