Conics on a Graphing Calculator

WEBSITE: http://www.teachertube.com This video demonstrates the use of the Conics application on the TI83 and TI84 series of graphing calculators. Circles ellipses and hyperbolas are evaluated. There is a discussion of changes in h and k shifting the location of the conic. Standard forms of equations are explained. There is also some time taken to show basic the basic algebra of solving for y in order to graph. For ellipses major and minor axes are defined.
