Homework due Friday 3/31

Extra problem set handout: "Circles, ellipses, and hyperbolas: combined practice."

Homework due Wednesday 3/29

Your homework is to go back to all the problems from last night's homework (section 9.5 problems on hyperbolas) and add the following additional information:

• Find the value of c.
  
• Find the coordinates of the foci.
  
• For graphing problems, add the foci to your graph.
  

Homework due Tuesday 3/28

Lesson 9.5 exercises 7-12, 13-23 odd, 33-41 odd, 43, 45, 46.

In the directions for the 13-23 odd and 33-41 odd, change the list of
things you're asked to label or find to: "center, vertices, box, and
asymptotes."

Homework due Monday 3/27

In Lesson 9.4:

• Find the foci of the ellipses in these problems: 21-26, 27-39 odd, 51-57 odd. For some of these problems you've already made graphs (HW due Wed. 3/20); add the foci to those graphs.
  
• Also do problems 5, 6, 62, 63.
  

Homework due Friday 3/24

See the packet from class, "Ellipses (geometric approach)."

Homework due Wednesday 2/22

Lesson 9.4 problems 21-26, 27-39 odd (change second sentence of directions
to "Label the center and the endpoints of the axes."), 51-57 odd (change

axes."), 61, 64.

Homework due Tuesday 3/21

Lesson 9.3 problems 9-57 alternating odd, 69-75 odd, 77-81 all. (Students
who weren't in class Monday: You should definitely look at the Lesson 9.3

Test Wednesday 3/8

Wednesday's test will cover sections 8.1-8.5 (rational functions, rational
equations, etc.). Note that in section 8.5, we omitted the algebraic
solving of inequalities; you only need to learn to solve inequalities
graphically.

During class on Tuesday we worked on a sheet of review problems. If you
don't have the sheet because you missed class and didn't drop by
later in the day, there's an alternate set of review problems that you can
try on pages 546-548 in the textbook.

Homework due Tuesday 3/7

Homework due Monday 3/6
