Teacher: Rolando H. Chavez, Ed.D Designation: MT – II

School: Emigdio A. Bondoc High School Division/Cluster: Pampanga/Cluster V
Grading Period: First Semester Grade Level/Track: Grade 12- GAS
Date of Observation: ______________ Time: ___________

Learning Competencies: Learners should be able to:

1. Write ellipse in the standard form
2. Identify horizontal/vertical ellipse
Topic: Ellipse and Its Equation
Source: Grade 12 Mathematics Teacher’s Guide
Module prepared by the Committee for the Grade 12 Curriculum from the
Department of Education (DepEd)
Strategies: Use of Concept Attainment Strategy (CAS), Concept Formation Strategy,
Mathnagram Strategy, Individual and Collaborative Work Approaches

I. Preliminaries:
A. Management of Learning
1. Prayer
2. Attendance
B. Motivation:
“What mathematical terms can be associated with the following Mathnagram
terms?”

A QUESTION SELL PIES SAND DART

LAB VARIES SOLO UNITS RADIC SQUAT

LIVER CAT ZHAR LOTION

Using Concept Formation Strategy (CFS)

a. What do you understand about the newly formed words?
b. Form sentence/s using all the words formed in the Mathnagram.
II. Presentation of the Lesson
A. Using Concept Attainment Strategy (CAS), identify if the given equation is Ellipse or
Not Ellipse.

These are ellipses These are NOT ellipses

36x2 + 4y2 = 144 4x2 - 36 y2 = 144

25x2 + 9y2 = 225 16x2 - 36 y2 = 144

x2 + y2 = 1 x2 - y2 = 1
9 36 49 36

(x + 1 )2 + (y + 2)2 = 1 (x + 1 )2 - (y + 2)2 = 1
9 25 9 25

Abstraction:
a. What is an ellipse?
b. How do you differentiate ellipse equation from non-ellipse equation?
c. Which of these are ellipses?

25x2 + 9y2 = 225 (x - 3 )2 + (y - 1)2 = 4 (x - 2 )2 + (y - 2)2 = 1

25 36 25 36

d. Write your own examples of ellipse.

Generalization: Reflect on the following questions:

a. How are the ellipses formed?
b. How do you write ellipse equations in the standard form?
c. What can you say about the values of a and b in the denominator of ellipse
equations?
d. How is the vertical ellipse formed? What about horizontal ellipse?

III. Application. Group work activity. Write two (2) equations of ellipse in the standard
form. Use the marker and cut-out cartolina provided. Presentation of group outputs
follows. Group leaders will check the outputs of the other groups.
 Integration:
Values: Accuracy, Neatness, and Efficiency
Science: The orbits of the planet in the solar system are in the shape of ellipse, and
many objects in space travel in elliptical paths.
Sports and Engineering: Eng’r. Tobias was asked to construct a new track for cycling
teams. The track is to be elliptical. If the available land is 200 yd long and 100
yd wide, what are the maximum lengths of the axes of the cycling track?
Synthesis:
How do you write an ellipse equation in the standard form?

IV. Evaluation. (Use of activity sheet)

Write the following equations in the standard form of the ellipse. Give the values of a and
b in each equation.

V. Home Delight
Bring graphing papers and pencil. Define foci, x-and y-intercepts, and major axis of an
ellipse.
