  2. Translation of axes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_of_axes

    Given the equation + + =, by using a translation of axes, determine whether the locus of the equation is a parabola, ellipse, or hyperbola. Determine foci (or focus), vertices (or vertex), and eccentricity. Solution: To complete the square in x and y, write the equation in the form

  4. Rotation of axes in two dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_of_axes_in_two...

    For example, to study the equations of ellipses and hyperbolas, the foci are usually located on one of the axes and are situated symmetrically with respect to the origin. If the curve (hyperbola, parabola , ellipse, etc.) is not situated conveniently with respect to the axes, the coordinate system should be changed to place the curve at a ...

  5. Parabola of safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabola_of_safety

    In 2D and shooting on a horizontal plane, parabola of safety can be represented by the equation y = u 2 2 g − g x 2 2 u 2 {\displaystyle y={\frac {u^{2}}{2g}}-{\frac {gx^{2}}{2u^{2}}}} where u {\displaystyle u} is the initial speed of projectile and g {\displaystyle g} is the gravitational field.

  6. Parametric equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parametric_equation

    The standard method for computing a parametric form of the solution is to use Gaussian elimination for computing a reduced row echelon form of the augmented matrix. Then the unknowns that can be used as parameters are the ones that correspond to columns not containing any leading entry (that is the left most non zero entry in a row or the ...

  7. Parabolic trajectory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_trajectory

    The green path in this image is an example of a parabolic trajectory. A parabolic trajectory is depicted in the bottom-left quadrant of this diagram, where the gravitational potential well of the central mass shows potential energy, and the kinetic energy of the parabolic trajectory is shown in red.

  8. Conic section - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conic_section

    For the parabola, the standard form has the focus on the x-axis at the point (a, 0) and the directrix the line with equation x = −a. In standard form the parabola will always pass through the origin. For a rectangular or equilateral hyperbola, one whose asymptotes are perpendicular, there is an alternative standard form in which the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D'Alembert's_formula

    The only difference between a homogeneous and an inhomogeneous (partial) differential equation is that in the homogeneous form we only allow 0 to stand on the right side ((,) =), while the inhomogeneous one is much more general, as in (,) could be any function as long as it's continuous and can be continuously differentiated twice.
