Introduction of the Topic

We introduce the conic sections (or conics), a particular class of curves which oftentimes
appear in nature and which have applications in other fields. One of the first shapes we learned, a
circle is a conic. When you throw a ball, the trajectory it takes is a parabola. The orbit taken by
each planet around the sun is an ellipse. Properties of hyperbolas have been used in the design of
certain telescopes and navigation system. In this module, we are going to discuss conic sections
and circles while the other conic sections will be elaborately discussed for subsequent modules.

Lesson 1: Conic Sections

generator upper nappe


Vertex

axis lower nappe


directrix

Figure 1 Figure 2

When a straight line intersect a vertical line at a fixed point, (Figure 1) rotates about that fixed
point, the surface formed is called a double right circular cone (Figure 2). A double right circular
cone consists of two cones joined at a fixed point called vertex. The line that rotates about the fixed
point is called generator and the vertical line is called the axis. A right circular cone has a circular
base and the axis is always perpendicular from the center of the base to the vertex. The perimeter of
the base is called the directrix. The lateral surface of a right circular cone is called a nappe. The
double right circular cone has two nappes. The nappe above the vertex is called the upper nappe and
that below the vertex is called the lower nappe. The angle between the axis and the generator is called
the vertex angle.

When a plane intersects the double right circular cone, we get two-dimensional curves of
different types. These curves are called conic sections. Depending on the angle made by the plane
with the vertical axis of the cone, the plane can cut the cone in three different ways:

a b c d
Figure 3: Conic Sections (a) ellipse; (b) circle; (c) parabola; (d) hyperbola.Source:
https://saylordotorg.github.io/text_intermediate-algebra/s11-conic-sections.html
(1) When the plane intersects the double right circular cone in such a way that the angle between
the plane and the axis is greater than the vertex angle, a close curve called an ellipse is formed.
(See Figure 3a). When the plane is perpendicular to the axis, the ellipse becomes a circle (See
Figure 3b). Thus, a circle is a special type of ellipse.
(2) When the angle made by the plane to the vertical axis is exactly equal to the vertex angle, and
open curve called a parabola is formed (See Figure 3c).
(3) When the plane intersects the double right circular cone at an angle that is less than the vertex
angle, the plane intersects both the nappe of the double right circular cone to form an open
curve called hyperbola which has two disjoint curves (See Figure 3d).

Degenerate Conics
When the plane intersects the double right circular cone at its vertex, the ellipse becomes a
point. The parabola becomes a line. And, the hyperbola becomes two intersecting lines.

Lesson 2: Circle
On this part of the module, we shall discover that it is quite easy to write the equation of a
circle if the location of its center and the radius are known. First, however, let us give an explicit
definition of a circle

Definition: A circle is the set of all points on a plane that are equidistant from a fixed point on the
plane. The fixed point is called the center and the distance from the center to any point of the circle
is called the radius.
Let the center of a circle be at the fixed point C(h, k) and let the radius be equal to r. Then if P(x, y) is
any point of the circle, the distance from C to P is equal to r (See Figure 4). This condition requires
that
Y
√(𝑥 − ℎ)2 + (𝑦 − 𝑘)2 = 𝑟

and, by squaring both sides of the equation, P(x,y)


r
(𝑥 − ℎ)2 + (𝑦 − 𝑘)2 = 𝑟 2
C(h,k)

O X

Figure 4
This formula shows the coordinates of the center and the length of the radius and,
consequently, is sometimes called the center-radius form of the equation of a circle.

Conversely, the graph of an equation of the form (𝑥 − ℎ)2 + (𝑦 − 𝑘)2 = 𝑟 2 is a circle with center
at (h, k) and radius equal to r. This fact is evident since the equation is satisfied by, and only by
points whose distance from (h, k) is r. Hence it is an easy task to write the equation of a circle whose

3
PRECALCULUS QUARTER 1 WEEK 1
DALMACIO D. DAYTA
center and radius are known, or to graph the circle whose equation is expressed in the standard form
or center-radius form.
If the center of the circle is at the origin (h = 0, k = 0), and the radius is r, its equation is
represented by

𝒙 𝟐 + 𝒚𝟐 = 𝒓 𝟐
Example 1: If the center of a circle is at (-1, 4) and the radius is 3 units, write the equation of the
circle in standard form.

Solution: y
When the coordinates of the center of the circle and
the length of the radius is known, we simply substitute
C(-1, 4) 4
the values to the corresponding variables in the standard
r=3 form of the equation of the circle. So,

x (𝑥 − ℎ)2 + (𝑦 − 𝑘)2 = 𝑟 2
-4 -1 4
Since C(-1, 4), thus h = -1, and k = 4. The radius is 3
units, so r = 3, thus:

[𝑥 − (−1)]2 + (𝑦 − 4)2 = 32

(𝑥 + 1)2 + (𝑦 − 4)2 = 9

Hence, the required equation is: (𝒙 + 𝟏)𝟐 + (𝒚 − 𝟒)𝟐 = 𝟗

The standard form of the equation of the circle can be presented in another way by squaring
the binomials on the left-hand side of the equation and collecting terms. Thus
(𝑥 − ℎ)2 + (𝑦 − 𝑘)2 = 𝑟 2

𝑥 2 − 2ℎ𝑥 + ℎ2 + 𝑦 2 − 2𝑘𝑦 + 𝑘 2 = 𝑟 2

𝑥 2 + 𝑦 2 − 2ℎ𝑥 − 2𝑘𝑦 + ℎ2 + 𝑘 2 − 𝑟 2 = 0

The last equation is of the form 𝑥 2 + 𝑦 2 + 𝐷𝑥 + 𝐸𝑦 + 𝐹 = 0


This is called the general form of the equation of a circle.

Conversely, an equation of the form 𝑥 2 + 𝑦 2 + 𝐷𝑥 + 𝐸𝑦 + 𝐹 = 0 can be reduced by the simple


use of completing the squares in the x terms and the y terms. Let us illustrate the procedure in the
next example.

Example 2: Change the equation 𝑥 2 + 𝑦 2 − 14𝑥 + 12𝑦 − 36 = 0 to standard form.


Solution: We start with collecting the x terms and the y terms leaving spaces for the terms to be
added to complete the squares, we have
𝑥 2 − 14𝑥 + 𝑦 2 + 12𝑦 = 36

To complete the square in quadratic expressions of the form 𝑥 2 + 𝑏𝑥, we simply add the
𝑏 2 −14 2
constant term obtained by ( ) . Hence, in 𝑥 2 − 14𝑥 where b = -14, we add ( ) = 49. And, in 𝑦 2 +
2 2
12 2
12𝑦, we add ( ) = 36.
2

Also, to keep the balance in the equation, the numbers 49 and 36 need to be added to the
right hand side of the equation. Thus,
𝑥 2 − 14𝑥 + 49 + 𝑦 2 + 12𝑦 + 36 = 36 + 49 + 36

𝑥 2 − 14𝑥 + 49 + 𝑦 2 + 12𝑦 + 36 = 121

(𝑥 − 7)2 + (𝑦 + 6)2 = 121

Example 3: Find the center and radius of the circle 9𝑥 2 + 9𝑦 2 − 36𝑥 + 18𝑦 = 81.
Solution: We start by dividing all terms of the equation by 9. Hence,

4
PRECALCULUS QUARTER 1 WEEK 1
DALMACIO D. DAYTA
𝑥 2 + 𝑦 2 − 4𝑥 + 2𝑦 = 9

Then collect the x terms and the y terms leaving spaces for the terms to be added to complete the
trinomials.
(𝑥 2 − 4𝑥 ) + ( 𝑦 2 + 2𝑦 )=9

To complete the trinomials, 4 and 1 must be added.


(𝑥 2 − 4𝑥 + 4) + (𝑦 2 + 2𝑦 + 1) = 9 + 4 + 1

The numbers 4 and 1 were added to complete the squares in 𝑥 2 − 4𝑥 and 𝑦 2 + 2𝑦 respectively. Also,
4 and 1 were added to the right hand side of the equation to keep the equation balanced. That is,
“whatever value is added to the left-hand side of the equation, the same must be added to the right-
hand side of the equation.”

Next, we can now write the equation in standard form,

Remember that the perfect square trinomial of the form, 𝑎2 + 2𝑎𝑏 + 𝑏 2 can be factored into a square
of binomial of the form, (𝑎 + 𝑏)2 .
Hence, 𝑥 2 − 4𝑥 + 4 = (𝑥 − 2)2 ; and

𝑦 2 + 2𝑦 + 1 = (𝑦 + 1)2

Hence, the standard form of the equation of the circle is given by


(𝑥 − 2)2 + (𝑦 + 1)2 = 14

Therefore, the center of the circle is at (2, -1) and the radius is √𝟏𝟒 units.
Example 4: The circle with center at (-2, 3) is tangent to the x-axis. Write the equation of the circle
in standard form.

Solution: If the circle is tangent to the x-axis, then a radius is perpendicular to the x-axis at the
point (-2, 0). Hence, the radius of the circle is 3 units.
The figures illustrates the given in the problem:

The required equation is

(𝑥 + 2)2 + (𝑦 − 3)2 = 9 C (-2, 3)


r=3 =3

In some cases, both the standard form and the general form of the equation of the circle can
be useful in finding its equation. A circle can be passed through three points which are not on a
straight line. This can be illustrated in the next example.

Example 5: Find the equation of the circle which passes through the points P(1, -2), Q(5, 4), and
R(10, 5).
Solution: Note that the equation of the circle can be expressed in the form
𝑥 2 + 𝑦 2 + 𝐷𝑥 + 𝐸𝑦 + 𝐹 = 0.

In here, we are going to find the values for D, E and F so that the equation is satisfied by the
given points. So we substitute for x and y the coordinates of the given points and this results in the
following system:
1 + 4 + 𝐷 − 2𝐸 + 𝐹 = 0 Equation 1

25 + 16 + 5𝐷 + 4𝐸 + 𝐹 = 0
100 + 25 + 10𝐷 + 5𝐸 + 𝐹 = 0

5
PRECALCULUS QUARTER 1 WEEK 1
DALMACIO D. DAYTA
Equation 2

Equation 3

We solve the system simultaneously to get the values for D, E and F.

Subtracting Equation 1 from Equation 2 term-wise,


25 + 16 + 5𝐷 + 4𝐸 + 𝐹 = 0
1 + 4 + 𝐷 − 2𝐸 + 𝐹 = 0
36 + 4𝐷 + 6𝐸 = 0
Simplifying the result we get,
2𝐷 + 3𝐸 = −36 Equation 4

Subtracting Equation 2 from Equation 3 term-wise,


100 + 25 + 10𝐷 + 5𝐸 + 𝐹 = 0
25 + 16 + 5𝐷 + 4𝐸 + 𝐹 = 0
84 + 5𝐷 + 𝐸 = 0
Simplifying the result we get,
5𝐷 + 𝐸 = −84 Equation 5

Now, we have reduced the three equations into two equations in two variables (See Equation 4 and
Equation 5).

From equation 5, we get an equation of E in terms of D.


𝐸 = −84 − 5𝐷

Then, substitute this expression for E in Equation 4.


2𝐷 + 3(−84 − 5𝐷) = −36
2𝐷 − 252 − 15𝐷 = −36
−13𝐷 = 226
𝐷 = −18
Substitute the value of D to Equation 5, to get the value of E.
5(−18) + 𝐸 = −84
−90 + 𝐸 = −84
𝐸 = −84 + 90
𝐸=6
Substitute the values of D and E to Equation 1, to get the value of F.
1 + 4 − 18 − 2(6) + 𝐹 = 0
𝐹 = −1 − 4 + 18 + 12
𝐹 = 25
Finally, Substitute the values of D, E and F to the general form of the equation of the circle to get
the required equation.
𝑥 2 + 𝑦 2 − 18𝑥 + 6𝑦 + 25 = 0.

An alternative solution to example no. 5 is using the concept that the perpendicular bisectors
of two chords of a circle intersect at the center of the circle. This is illustrated in the following
figure.

So we get the equations of the perpendicular bisectors of chords


PQ and QR,

To find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of PQ, we need


the midpoint of PQ and the negative reciprocal of the slope of PQ.
Since the slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of
each other.
𝑦2 −𝑦1
Recall that the formula for slope (m) is 𝑚 =
𝑥2 −𝑥1

𝑥1 +𝑥2 𝑦1 +𝑦2
And the formula for midpoint; 𝑀 ( , )

Slope of PQ: Hence, the slope of the line perpendicular to

2 2
Using the point-slope formula in getting the equation of the line,
𝑦 − 𝑦1 = 𝑚(𝑥 − 𝑥1 )

Where m is the slope and (𝑥1 , 𝑦1 ) is the coordinate of the point on the line. By substitute the slope
and midpoint of PQ, the equation of the line perpendicular to PQ is given by
2
𝑦 − 1 = − (𝑥 − 3)
3
3𝑦 − 3 = −2(𝑥 − 3)
3𝑦 − 3 = −2𝑥 + 6
2𝑥 + 3𝑦 = 9
We do the same in finding the equation of the line perpendicular to QR.

Slope of QR: Midpoint of PQ:


5−4 1 5 + 10 4 + 5
𝑚= = 𝑀( , )
10 − 5 5 2 2
Hence, the slope of the line perpendicular to 15 9

QR is −5. 2 2
The equation of the line perpendicular to QR is given by

2𝑦 − 9 = −10(𝑥 − )
2
2𝑦 − 9 = −10𝑥 + 75
10𝑥 + 2𝑦 = 84
5𝑥 + 𝑦 = 42
The equations therefore of the perpendicular bisectors of the chords PQ and QR are 2𝑥 + 3𝑦 = 9 and
5𝑥 + 𝑦 = 42 respectively.
We, solve these two equations simultaneously to get the center of the circle. Thus,

Let 2𝑥 + 3𝑦 = 9 be Equation 1, and

5𝑥 + 𝑦 = 42 be Equation 2.
Our solution is by elimination by substitution. First, write an equation of y in terms of x using
Equation 2
5𝑥 + 𝑦 = 42
𝑦 = −5𝑥 + 42
Then substitute this expression for y in Equation 1.
2𝑥 + 3(−5𝑥 + 42) = 9
Solving for x 2𝑥 − 15𝑥 + 126 = 9
−13𝑥 = −117
𝑥=9
the center of the circle is at (9, -3). The next step is to get the length of the radius by getting the
distance between any of the given points and (9, -3).
Here, let us use P(1, -2) and (9, -3)

𝑟 = √(−3 − −2)2 + (9 − 1)2


𝑟 = √(−1)2 + (8)2
𝑟 = √1 + 64
𝑟 = √65
So, 𝑟 2 = 65
Hence the equation of the circle in standard form is (𝒙 − 𝟗)𝟐 + (𝒚 + 𝟑)𝟐 = 𝟔𝟓.

Example 6: A circle is tangent to the line 2𝑥 − 𝑦 + 1 = 0 at the point (2, 5), and the center is on the
line 𝑥 + 𝑦 = 9. Find the equation of the circle.

PRECALCULUS QUARTER 1 WEEK 1
DALMACIO D. DAYTA
Solution:
2x – y + 1= 0
Let us have the figure to show the
Circle and the lines in example 6.

The line through (2, 5) and perpendicular to the line


2𝑥 − 𝑦 + 1 = 0 passes through the center of the circle. To get the
equation of this line, we get the negative reciprocal of the slope
x+y=9
of 2𝑥 − 𝑦 + 1 = 0.

Let us rewrite the tangent line in the form 𝑦 = 𝑚𝑥 + 𝑏, so that


the slope is the coefficient of x.
2𝑥 − 𝑦 + 1 = 0
𝑦 = 2𝑥 + 1

1
Since m = 2, the slope of the tangent line is 2, then the slope of the line containing the radius is − .
2

We use the point-slope form of the equation of the line to get the equation of the line containing the
radius of the circle. Thus,
1
𝑦 − 5 = − (𝑥 − 2)
2
2𝑦 − 10 = −𝑥 + 2
2𝑦 − 10 = −𝑥 + 2
𝑥 + 2𝑦 = 10 + 2
𝑥 + 2𝑦 = 12

So, the equation of the line containing the radius of the circle is 𝑥 + 2𝑦 = 12
To get the coordinates of the center of the circle, we solve the system
𝑥 + 2𝑦 = 12
{
𝑥+𝑦 =9

Our solution is by elimination, let us subtract the second equation from the first to eliminate
the variable x.
𝑥 + 2𝑦 = 12
𝑥+𝑦 =9
𝑦=3

Substitute the value of y to the second equation to get the value of x.


𝑥+3=9
𝑥 =9−3
𝑥=6

Hence the center is at (6, 3). To get the length of the radius, we get the distance between the
center (6, 3) and the point (2, 5).

𝑟= √(2 − 6)2 + (5 − 3)2


𝑟= √(−4)2 + (2)2
𝑟= √16 + 4
𝑟= √20
𝑟2 = 20

Therefore, the required equation of the circle is (𝒙 − 𝟔)𝟐 + (𝒚 − 𝟑)𝟐 = 𝟐𝟎.

Remember
 When a plane intersects a double right circular cone, two dimensional curves called conic
sections are formed.
 There are three types of conic sections: ellipse, parabola and hyperbola.
 When a double right circular cone is cut by a plane so that the angle between the plane and
the axis is greater than the vertex angle, the ellipse is obtained. When the plane is
perpendicular to the axis, the ellipse changes into a circle.
 If a double right circular cone is cut by a plane so that the angle between the plane and the
axis is equal to the vertex angle, the parabola is formed.
 If a double right circular cone is cut by a plane so that the angle between the plane and the
axis is less than the vertex angle, the hyperbola is formed.
 A circle is the set of all points on a plane that are equidistant from a fixed point on the plane.
The fixed point is called the center and the distance from the center to any point of the circle
is called the radius.
 The standard form of the equation of the circle is given by: (𝑥 − ℎ)2 + (𝑦 − 𝑘)2 = 𝑟 2 where (x, y)
is a point on the circle, (h, k) is the center and r is the radius of the circle.
