6-3

This week we learned section 6-3. In 6-3 we learned how to solve problems in the form of x^2/a+y^2=1

Part of the Equations:

Major axis

Minor axis

length of major

length of minor

Vertex

Other Int

Focus


Examples: Find all the parts of X^2/4+y^2/25=1

1. Major axis= y
2. Minor axis=z
3 Length of major=10
4. length of minor=4
5. vertex= (0,5)(0,-5)
6. Other Int=(2,0)(-2,0)
7. focus=( 0,square root of 21)(0,-square root of 21)

Basically if you know all your steps and procedure you will not have any problem at this section and this will be a breeze for you to.
