PrecalculusConic SectionsExample 1: Graph an ellipse. x24+y216=1Toggles graph to be in and out of proportion.Selecting Plot in 2D gives the graph. The graph is a little misleading. It is not a circle. The distance for a unit length is different on the x-axis versus the y-axis. To make the graph proportional, click on the fourth button in the Display row. The new graph is:Show grid lines (yes/no)Diplay units on the perimeter (yes,no)Note that there is new labeling on the axes. The Display row can furthermore be used to alter how the graph is displayed. Insert a desired domain and/or range.Display axes (yes/no)Example 2: Graph a hyperbola. x216-y24=1Select Plot in 2D.Alternately, you can use the command:PlotEq(x216-y24=1,x,-10,10,y,-10,10)The insertion of x,-10,10,y,-10,10 will control the plot range. However, the original equation can be inserted and the plot range established by using the last button on the Display row.Insert the desired minimum and maximum values here.Example 3: Graph a circle with radius 3 and center of the origin. Shade the outside of the circle.Highlight and right click and select “Plot Inequality”.x2+ y2>3 PrecalculusGraphing Trigonometric FunctionsSet the angles to be in radian or degree mode by using Math Preferences.Use Insert New Equation for an input. With an expression, the option of Plot in 2D will appear after a right click on the input.Consider the example:3sin(2 x)The input will appear in blue as shown:Right click and yield the graph:Consider other examples.Example 1: Graph =cos?(1x) .The option Plot in 2D also appears if the input is in the form of an equation. The graph is:Example 2: Graph =sinxx .The graph is:sinx/xUse the Fraction option as a possible way to enter. Notice that sin is recognized. To enter the argument after sin, press the space bar.For our example, the graph is undefined at x=0. However, the graph appears continuous.PrecalculusSolving Trigonometric FunctionsThis will bring up the Basic Math feature.To input a popular symbol, use the down arrow key.The Basic Math feature will appear, and π will be an option.Alternatively, in the Insert New Equation line type, “\pi” followed with the space bar. The input will automatically change to, “π”. Consider some trigonometric equations and their solutions.Example 1:sin2x=0Select Solve for x to yield:x=π N12Example 2: x=cosxThe answer in radians is:x≈0.7390851332152Example 3: x=tanxThe output is:x≈0The option, Plot Both Sides in 2D, appears along with Solve for x. The graph is:The answer is zero.Example 4: Solve for the indicated variable. Solve for b. b=tan?(π)The answer is:b=0Example 5: Solve for the indicated variable. Solve for c. c=arctan(12)The Solve for c option brings up:c=tan-112This does not help. Erase the “c =”. The option, Calculate, will appear.tan-112Select Calculate to give the following answer in radian mode:0.4636476090008Select Calculate to give the following answer when the Math Preferences are set to Degrees:26.565051177078PrecalculusComplex NumbersExample 1: Find the modulus of a complex number.-3+2i.The command is abs.

Let r=2 and θ=-π/3 and obtain the same answer.2cos-π3+2isin-π33-8Example 5: Given a complex number, convert it to the polar form, z=reθi.Use the command topolar. Input the complex number, a + bi, following the command. Below is an example input and output. topolar (0+1i)eπ i2The command toRect changes a number from polar form to rectangular form. The Calculate option from the pull-down menu will execute without the needed command toRect. This is an example input and output.13 etan-123 i3+2iReferenceZill, D. and Cullen, M. Advanced Engineering Mathematics, third edition, Jones and Bartlett, Sudbury, Massachusetts, 2006).PrecalculusSeriesWhen working with a series, do not use the letter, i. It is understood as the imaginary number equal to -1. It appears from the ribbon that using the letter i as a counter is acceptable. It is not.Example 1: Find the sum of the first ten positive integers.Insert the series using a summation.k=110k Right-click and select Simplify to yield:55Example 2: Find a formula to sum the first n positive integers. k=1nk The output is:n2+n2Example 3: Find the sum of the square of n integers.k=1nk2 The output is:n33+n22+n6Use the command Factor out the previous output.factor(n33+n22+n6)The Simplify command yields:n n+1 2 n+16Example 4: Find the sum of cube of n integers. k=1nk3 The output is:n44+n32+n24Using the Factor command with this output yields:n2 n+124Example 5: Use the seriessum command.The command seriessum is one word followed by a description of each term, the increment variable, the starting value for the variable, and the ending value for the variable. An example is:seriessum (n3,n,1,5) The Simplify command gives:225PrecalculusOverview with ExamplesExample 1: Solve an equation for x. x3-x2-4=0The Solve for x command yields:x=34 219+5527+3-4 219+5527+13To give a numerical solution, use the nsolve command.nsolve(x3-x2-4=0)Solve for x or Simplify yields:x≈2Example 2: Solve an equation for x that will yield an answer containing a non-real number.x2+4=0Under Math Preferences, select Complex Numbers and click OK.x2+4=0The output is: x=2i x=-2iThe output if the number field selected is Real Numbers is:Example 3: Solve an equation with a degree 3 polynomial.x3-6x2-12x-6=0The Solve for x command yields:x=317+23+323-17+2To give a numerical solution use the nsolve command.
