Using the Conics

Application

The Conics application provides you with the capability to graph

circular, parabolic, elliptic, and hyperbolic functions. You can also

use the Conics application to quickly and easily determine the

proper focal point, vertex, directrix, axis of symmetry, latus

rectum, center, radius, asymptote, eccentricity, and even the

x- and y-intercepts of each type of conics.
