Analytic Geometry (Points, Lines & Circles) 247 DAY 11 Analytic geometry deals with geometric problems using coordinates system thereby converting it into algebraic problems. Rene Descartes (1596 — 1650, Cartesius in Latin language) is regarded as the founder of analytic geometry by introducing coordinates system in 1637. Rectangular Coordinates System (Also known as Cartesian Coordinates System) Second Quadrant First Quadrant 4 abscissa P63) 3 a 2 if ordinate Bi B= 4d Fourth Quadrant Point O is the origin and has coordinates (0,0). The x-coordinate or abscissa is always measured from the y-axis while the y-coordinate or ordinate is always measured from the x-axis. The point P has 5 and 3 as abscissa and ordinate, respectively. Distance between two points: This formula is known as the distance formula. y ¥)248. 1001 Solved Problems in Engineering Mathematics by Tiong & Rojas Distance between two points in space: z In space, there are three axes, namely x, y and z, Slope of a line (m): Tang =¥2—¥1 Xa X Since slope, m=tan 0, ». ———a Angle between two lines: Line 2 eta = ‘ma and m; are slopes of line eT 2 and line 1, respectively.

The term “conic” was first introduced by a renowned mathematician and astronomer of antiquity, Apollonius (c.255 - 170 B.C.) Also, the term “conic section” was due to the fact that the section is formed by a plane made to intersect a cone. [ C& Circle oe ee Se Parabola < ae a ee Circle is produced when the cutting plane is parallel to the base of the cone. Ellipse is produced when the cutting plane is not parallel (or inclined) to the base of the cone. Parabola is produced when the cutting plane is parallel to the element (or generatrix) of the cone. Hyperbola is produced when the cutting plane is parallel to the axis of the cone. General Equation of a Conic Section: Ax? + Bry +Cy?+Dx+Ey+F =0 ‘When B is not equal to zero, then the principal axes of the conic are inclined (not parallel to the coordinates axes). The curve can be identified from the equation given by determining the value of the determinant, B’ - 4AC. If B? - 4AC <0, the conicis an ellipse. —» e<1.0 If B® - 4AC =, the conic is a parabola. —> e=1.0 If B* -4AC > 0, the conicis a hyperbola. —> e>1.0Analytic Geometry (Points, Lines'& Circles) 251 When B is equal to zero, then the principal axes of the conic are parallel to the coordinates axes (x and y axes). To identify the curve, compare the coefficients of A and C. IfA=C, the conics a circle. If A C but the same signs, the conic is an ellipse. If A and C have different signs, the conic is a hyperbola Ifeither A or C is zero, the conic is a parabola. The conic sections have geometric properties that can be used for some engineering application such as beams of sound and reflection of rays of light. Circle refiects rays issued from the focus back to the center of the circle. Parabola reflects rays issued from the focus as a parallel (with respect to its axis) outgoing beam. Ellipse reflects rays issued from the focus into the other focus. Hyperbola reflects rays issued from the focus as if coming from the other focus. Oo Circle Ellipse Parabola Hyperbola Circle is a locus of a point that which moves so that it is equidistant from a fixed point called center. 1.
