Conics Introduction and Parabolas

In this graphs worksheet, students solve and complete 15 various types of problems. First, they determine the range of the function of the graph shown and write in interval notation. Then, students find the domain of the function in the...

Explaining that the only thing he gets in return for these videos "is the satisfaction of you guys getting a perfect score on the SAT," Sal charges on through the practice SAT problems. Students who have a difficulty with parabolas and...

Here, parabolas, circles, ellipses, and hyperbolas are introduced by showing a general graph of each. By showing the intersection of a plane and a cone to create the different conic sections, one can see how these curves are related.

Sal explains how helping his young cousins with their math skills inspired him to make this series of videos, so he can help a bunch of people pass the SAT. In this video, he covers exponents, quadratics, and parabolas in problems 5-9 on...

Continuing with the study of graphing hyperbolas, Sal shows an example of graphing a parabola that is centered at a point off the origin. By looking at the equation, first without shifting it, he helps listeners develop an intuitive...

This is the last of three well-done videos on identifying and graphing conic sections from an equation. Here, Sal graphs a circle that is not centered at the origin and a parabola that opens downward.

This is the last of three well-done videos on identifying and graphing conic sections from an equation. Here, Sal shows how to graph a circle not centered at the origin and a parabola that opens downward.

After watching this video, you should be able to write an equation of a conic section in standard form and identify the conic section from its equation. In an example problem, Sal reviews how to complete the square and graph an ellipse...

So, exactly, what does it look like? The easily usable graphing calculator allows pupils to visualize the graph of equations and inequalities. The interactive supports any algebraic graph needed for high school mathematics and then some.

Envision the function as the point swings. Given a point connected to another point and a line, pupils trace through an invisible graph. Learners identify the name of the given point and the line and determine the type of conic section...
