Chapter 4:
Conics Application
The Conics application provides you with the capability to graph circular,
parabolic, elliptic, and hyperbolic functions. You can also use the Conics
application to quickly and easily determine the proper focal point, vertex,
directrix, and other information about each type of conics.
Starting up the Conics application displays two windows: 1 the Conics
Editor window and 2 the Conics Graph window.
A function input on the Conics Editor window is graphed on the Conics
Graph window.
