CONIC SECTIONS PROJECT In this project, you will be using your knowledge of conic sections to sketch the graphs of the various photos. You will also explore items in our everyday environment that are in the shape of conic sections and find equations to accurately represent these shapes. NAME: _________________________ NAME: _________________________ PART 1: Conversion Calculations Directions: Covert the standard form of each conic section into its form.” To convert “graphing graphing form, solve for the variable. You will use this graphing formula throughout the project THE CIRCLE Standard Form: Graphing Form: ( _____ ) THE PARABOLA Standard Form: Graphing Form: ( _____ )
