Document Summary
9. 6 polar equations of conics notes: sterling. Provide a generalization to each of the key terms listed in this section. When it comes to polar equations of conics, the xed point would be f . When it comes to polar equations of conics, the xed line would be l. The distance between any point and a xed point would be the following: d (p, f ) The distance between any point and a xed line would be the following: d (p, l) The ratio between the point and xed point along with the point and its xed line would be expressed by the following ratio: d (p, f ) d (p, l) A conic section is a plane"s collection of points, which points are expressed with p , which makes the following xed positive number: e = d (p, f ) d (p, l) When it comes to conics, e would the conic"s eccentricity.
