Desmos Graphic project

1. Log in to desmos graphic calculator (desmos.com) and launch the calculator.

2. Create a picture by plotting functions.
3. You must include circle, parabola, ellipse and hyperbola at least twice in your picture. Use both general form and the standard form for each shape.
4. Experiment with general equations of conics + + + + = 0 and change the values of A, C, D, E and F.
5. Use table of standard equations of conics

Circle
( − ℎ) + ( − ) =

Parabola
( − ℎ) = 4 ( − ); ≠ 0

( − ) = 4 ( − ℎ); ≠ 0

Ellipse
( − ℎ) ( − )
+ = 1; 0 < <

( − ℎ) ( − )
+ = 1; 0 < <

Hyperbola
( − ℎ) ( − )
− =1

( − ) ( − ℎ)
− =1

6. You may draw other functions as well. Be creative.

7. Print an A3 poster to turn in and submit a link on edmodo.
