Question

A. Reduce each equation to a standard form and describe the curve completely by providing
the important aspects of the curve, if:
CIRCLE - center and radius
● PARABOLA - direction of the opening, vertex, focus, ends of latus rectum, and directrix
● ELLIPSE - center and direction of major axis, vertices/co-vertices (endpoints of the
major and minor axes), foci, ends of latera recta, and directrices
● HYPERBOLA - center and direction of transverse axis, vertices/endpoints of the
transverse and conjugate axes, foci, ends of latera recta, directrices, and asymptotes.
B. Draw the graph of the equation.
