1. Why are the circle, ellipse, parabola, and hyperbola called conic sections?

●​ They are formed by slicing through a cone.

2. (y - 1)² = -6(x + 2)

●​ Parabola
●​ Vertex: (-2, 1)
●​ Focus: (-7/2, 1)
●​ Directrix: x = -1/2
●​ Symmetry line: y = 1

3. (y - 2)²/16 - (x - 1)²/25 = 1

●​ Hyperbola
●​ Center: (1, 2)
●​ Vertices: (1, 6) and (1, -2)
●​ Foci: (1, 2 ± √41)
●​ Asymptotes: y - 2 = ±(4/5)(x - 1)

4. (x - 8)² + (y + 7)² = 8

●​ Circle
●​ Center: (8, -7)
●​ Radius: 2√2

5. (x - 2)²/4 + (y + 3)²/16 = 1

●​ Ellipse
●​ Center: (2, -3)
●​ Vertices: (2, 1) and (2, -7)
●​ Co-vertices: (4, -3) and (0, -3)
