Objectives
Recognize conic sections as
intersections of planes and cones.
Use the distance and midpoint formulas
to solve problems.

10-1 Introduction to Conic Sections
Remember!
When you take the square root of both sides of
an equation, remember that you must include
the positive and negative roots.

Example 1A: Graphing Circles and Ellipses on a
Calculator
Graph each equation on a graphing calculator.
Identify each conic section. Then describe the
center and intercepts.
(x – 1)2 + (y – 1)2 = 1
Step 1 Solve for y so that the expression can be
used in a graphing calculator.

Step 2 Use two equations to see the complete graph.
Use a square window on your graphing
calculator for an accurate graph. The
graphs meet and form a complete ellipse,
even though it might not appear that way
on the calculator.
The graph is an ellipse with center (0, 0)
and intercepts (±5, 0) and (0, ±2).

Helpful Hint
Because hyperbolas contain two curves that open
in opposite directions, classify them as opening
horizontally, vertically, or neither.

10-1 Introduction to Conic Sections
Because a diameter must
pass through the center of
a circle, the midpoint of a
diameter is the center of
the circle. The radius of a
circle is the distance from
the center to any point on
the circle and equal to half
the diameter.
Helpful Hint
The midpoint formula uses averages. You can
think of xM as the average of the x-values and yM
as the average of the y-values.

5+0 4–8
( 2 , 2 ) = (2.5, –2)

Step 2 Find the radius.
Use the Distance Formula with (2.5, –2) and
(0, –8)
r = ( 5 – 2.5)2 + (4 – (–2))2
The radius is the same using (5, 4).

Lesson Quiz: Part I
Graph each equation on a graphing calculator.
Identify each conic section. Then describe the
center and intercepts for circles and ellipses, or
the vertices and direction that the graph opens for
parabolas and hyperbolas.
1. x2 – 16y2 = 16
3. x = 6y2
