Conic Sections G11

Did you know that just like straight lines, there are mathematical equations to represent curves too? Yes, be it a circle, an ellipse, a parabola, or a hyperbola, all classify as conic sections and there is always an equation to represent each one of them on a graph paper. In this chapter, we will learn the standard equations of a circle, parabola, ellipse, hyperbola, the relation between the major and minor axes, and finding out their eccentricity & latus rectum.
