Thank you so much for this video! I was very confused on how to tell what type of conic section it is just by looking at it in the general form and this video explained it perfectly! Thanks

[@valbutler05]

Thank you for this video! It helped me determine what type of conic section it is by just looking at the general form.

[@MATHguide]

You are welcome!

I was having a hard time with the "Complete sa squares" part but now I UNDERSTAND!! thank you for this !!!

[@MATHguide]

Excellent!

[@ce7624]

I was struggling with a problem, and I found I had made a mistake and forgot the distributive property at 4:52
Thank you very much for this, this really helped!

Thank you so much! It helps me a lot ❤

[@MATHguide]

Excellent!

Very helpful video!🙂

[@lane8770]

hi! thank you for this but what if its not hyperbola? do i still need to divide all? or will it be different?

[@rodjecyrustablan8569]

thanks

[@ruzzeljaeguevarra8368]

thankyou it help

[@roiivangrajo9890]

Thanks 😁

[@rdeguzman6740]

Thank you so much

[@valkaivalvarthakey9351]

Good by completing squares if eq is 4x square - 4x doesn't work when divided by 2

[@MATHguide]

That's not clear.

[@martinpalacios697]

thanx for the video, how do i know the orientation of the hyperbola?

[@MATHguide]

Hyperbolas that look like this: x^2/9 - y^2/16 = 1 are orientated left/right. Hyperbolas that look like this: y^2/16 - x^2/9 = 1 are orientated up/down.
If the x-term is positive (in standard form), it's orientated left/right. If the y-term is positive (in standard form), it's orientated up/down.
See this graphic organizer: www.mathguide.com/lessons/Conics/FormulasConics.jpg

What about equations with the xy term?

[@MATHguide]

Latika Rastogi Those require rotations.

Thanks!

+Dylan Maciborski You're welcome!

[@jackelyntejada1035]

What if it dont have constant just like this x²+y²-121=0?

[@MATHguide]

You have a constant. It is -121. You have a circle: x²+y² = 121.

Just a daily reminder to ruin your mood

[@jassellem8276]

it kinda made me feel better tho. it means there really is no significance for whatever bullshit school has to offer when we're adults jghwjskkl

[@momomai7761]

don’t encourage me to not study lol

[@jannameralago9481]

What if x²+y² -4x-5=0?

[@tejaswaroopthota9312]

It's a circle
