What conic section degenerates into a line?

Mathematics
1 answer:
andrew11 [14]3 years ago

<h3>Answer: A) parabola</h3>

Some degenerate parabola cases form a single straight line, while other cases form one pair of parallel lines.

A degenerate hyperbola forms two lines that intersect at the vertex of the cone. We can rule out choice B.

A degenerate circle is a single point, so we can rule out choice C.

A degenerate ellipse is also a single point. Any circle is an ellipse (but not the other way around). We can rule out choice D.

Describe the process of creating a linear equation using two points and the point-slope form.
faltersainse [42]
First find the slope of the line = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)   where the 2 points are (x1, y1 and (x2, t2). 

Then  substitute the values of  the slope (m) and one of the points   into the point-slope formula

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
