In this lesson, we will learn how to convert the general form of conic section equations into any of the standard forms.
Students will be able to
Q1:
Consider the conic given by the equation 4𝑥+3𝑦−32𝑥+6𝑦+55=0.
Write the equation in standard form.
Hence, describe the conic.
Q2:
Which type of conic is described by the equation 5𝑥−9𝑦−10𝑥+90𝑦−265=0?
Q3:
By calculating the discriminant, identify the type of conic that is described by the equation 𝑥+𝑦+10𝑥−4𝑦+28=0.
