    This document provides an overview of pre-calculus topics including conic sections. It defines the three main conic sections - parabolas, hyperbolas, and ellipses - which are curves formed by the intersection of a plane and a cone. It describes the key properties of each type of conic section, such as how an ellipse is defined by two focal points and the constant sum of distances to these points. Examples of real-world applications are also given, such as satellite dishes for parabolas and guitars for hyperbolas. The origins of studying conic sections in ancient Greece are briefly mentioned.

    PRE-CALCULUS

    Conic sections, also known as


    cone sections, are curves
    formed when a plane and a cone
    intersects. Parabola, hyperbola,
    and ellipse (the circle is a
    specific type of ellipse) are the
    three main sections that make
    up a cone or conic section. To
    create the conic sections, a
    cone with two nappes that are
    the same is used.

    Conic section knowledge may be dated back to Ancient Greece. Menaechmus is


    credited with discovering conic sections between 360 and 350 B.C., and it is said
    that he employed them in his two answers to the issue of "doubling the cube."

    A hyperbola is an open curve with two branches formed by

    Hyperbola can be defined as the difference of distances


    between a set of points, which are present in a plane to
    two fixed points, is a positive constant.
