Hypatia of Alexandria Hypatia was born in 370 A.D. in Alexandria‚ Egypt. From that day on her life was one enriched with a passion for knowledge. Theon‚ Hypatia’s father whom himself was a mathematician‚ raised Hypatia in an environment of thought. Both of them formed a strong bond as he taught her his own knowledge and shared his passion in the search of answers to the unknown. Under her fathers discipline he developed a physical routine for her to ensure a healthy body as well as a highly

P.O.W. #4 Pockets of Pool Problem Statement For this POW imagine a modified pool table in which the only pockets are those in the four corners. This POW will use a “bird’s eye view” or looking at the table from above all the time‚ with different parts and shapes of the table labeled. Next‚ imagine that the ball is hit from the lower left‚ in a diagonal direction that forms a 45 degree angle. Finally‚ let’s say that every time the ball hits a side of the table‚ it bounces off in a 45 degree angle

Chapter 13_Graphing the Conic Sections Ellipses In this study guide we will focus on graphing ellipses but be sure to read and understand the definition in your text. Equation of an Ellipse (standard form) Area of an Ellipse ( x − h) 2 ( y − k ) 2 + =1 a2 b2 with a horizontal axis that measures 2a units‚ vertical axis measures 2b units‚ and (h‚ k) is the center. The long axis of an ellipse is called the major axis and the short axis is called the minor axis. These axes terminate

Chapter 10 : Quadratic Relations and Conic Sections History of Conic Sections History of Conic Sections Apollonius of Perga (about 262-200 B.C.) was the last of the great mathematicians of the golden age of Greek mathematics. Apollonius‚ known as "the great geometer‚" arrived at the properties of the conic sections purely by geometry. His descriptions were so complete that he would have had little to learn about conic sections from our modern analytical geometry except for the improved modern

Conics: Parabolas: Introduction (page 1 of 4) Sections: Introduction‚ Finding information from the equation‚ Finding the equation from information‚ Word problems & Calculators In algebra‚ dealing with parabolas usually means graphing quadratics or finding the max/min points (that is‚ the vertices) of parabolas for quadratic word problems. In the context of conics‚ however‚ there are some additional considerations. To form a parabola according to ancient Greek definitions‚ you would start
