Forms of Conic Sections

Circles, parabolas, ellipses, and hyperbolas are all forms of conic sections.
The general form of a conic section is Ax2 + Bxy + cy2 + Dx + Ey + F = 0, where A, B and C are not all zero.

By looking at the coefficients A and C, we can determine which conic section the general form represents without having to put it in standard form. A is the coefficient of the x squared term, and C is the coefficient of the y squared term.

We have a(n):

  • Circle, if A = C.
  • Parabola, if A or C is equal to zero.
  • Ellipse, if A and C have the same sign, but are not equal.
  • Hyperbola, if A and C have opposite signs.

Example:

Identify the conic section represented by each equation.

3x2 − 2y2 − 4x + 5y = -3 A = 3, C = -2 Hyperbola, because they have opposite signs.
-4x2 − 4y2 + 6x +y = 5 A = -4, C = -4 Circle, because A = C.
8x2 + y2 + 3x − 7y = 0 A = 8, C = 1 Ellipse, because they have the same sign.
y2 − x + 3y − 9 = 0 A = 0, C = 1 Parabola, because A = 0.

Identify each conic. Then solve the system of equations.

x2 − y2 = 5
2x2 + y2 = 22

x2 − y2 = 5 is the equation of a hyperbola.

2x2 + y2 = 22 is the equation of an ellipse.

There are, at most, 4 possible solutions.

Since the y2 terms have opposite signs, we can use elimination to solve for x.

x2 − y2 = 5

2x2 + y2 = 22


3x2 = 27
x2 = 9
x = ±3

Now, we will substitute 3 and -3 in for x and solve for y. Let's use the second equation.

2x2 y 2 = 22
2(3)2 + y 2 = 22
2(9) + y 2 =22
18 + y 2 = 22
2 = 4
y =±2
2x2 y 2 = 22
2(-3)2 + y 2 = 22
2(9) + y 2 =22
18 + y 2 = 22
2 = 4
y =±2
We get two solutions when x = 3, (3, 2) and (3, -2). We also get two solutions when x = -3, (-3, 2) and (-3, -2).

There are 4 solutions, (3, 2),(3, -2), (-3, 2)to the system 
x2 −y = 5.
2x2 + y2 = 22

We get two solutions when x = 3, (3, 2) and (3, -2).

We also get two solutions when x = -3, (-3, 2) and (-3, -2).
