    open plane curve formed by the intersection of a cone with a plane parallel to its side Hyperbola: a symmetrical open curve formed by the intersection of a circular cone with a plane at a smaller angle with its axis than the side of the cone. Ellipse: a regular oval shape‚ traced by a point moving in a plane so that the sum of its distances from the foci is constant Writing Conics are found everywhere in the world. You may not recognize them at first but they are all around us. Conics can be

    Lab 4: Kepler’s Laws (answer sheet) 1. a: semi-major axis b: semi-minor axis c: focus d: center 2. The distance from the center to a focus is 31 millimeters and the length of the semi-major axis is also in millimeters. The numbers are not even and cannot be simplified any further than what they are since 31 is a prime number. The number is 31/102‚ or 31 divided by 102 which results in 0.303921568627451. 3. Kepler’s first Law is that all planets orbit in an elliptical (egg

    equal in area to the square on KL‚ the other side of this rectangle may be precisely superposed upon the latus rectum‚ ZT. This property constitutes the best practical definition of the parabola. If a similar construction were made in the case of the ellipse‚ the side of the rectangle would fall short of the latus rectum; in the case of the hyperbola‚ would surpass it. The modern scientific definition of the parabola is that it is that plane curve of the second order which is tangent to the line at infinity

    astronomy. Planets orbit the sun. The sun does not orbit the planets. He posed a question of the planetary motion. Later‚ Newton took to answer. Kepler also came across the paths of planets. Their path was elliptical‚ not circular. Planets move in ellipses with the sun at one focus. Prior to this in 1602‚ Kepler found from trying to calculate the position of the Earth in its orbit that as it sweeps out an area defined by the Sun and the orbital path of the Earth that the radius vector describes equal

Santiago LG 4218 APOLLONIUS OF PERGA As what I have researched‚ Apollonius of Perga was a Greek geometer and astronomer noted for his writings in the conic section. It was him who gave the ellipse‚ the parabola‚ and the hyperbola the names by which we know them. And these things are our lessons this term. The work of Apollonius of Perga has had such a great impact
