p.21
Ellipse: Definition and Equation
What are the coordinates of the foci of the ellipse?
F₁ = (-5, 0) and F₂ = (5, 0).
p.32
Hyperbola: Definition and Equation
What happens to the graph of the hyperbola as x and y get larger?
The graph approaches the asymptotes y = (b/a)x and y = -(b/a)x.
What is the condition for line L to be perpendicular to line L1?
The product of their slopes must equal -1.
