k Drawing a Circle by Specifying the Coefficients of a General Equation
Example: To draw the circle x 2 + y 2 + 4 x – 6 y + 9 = 0
u ClassPad Operation
(1) In step (2) of the procedure under “Drawing a Circle by Specifying a Center Point and
Radius”, select “AX 2 + AY 2 + BX + CY + D = 0”.
(2) Substitute the following values for the coefficients: A = 1, B = 4, C = –6, D = 9.

Example: To draw the ellipse
u ClassPad Operation
(1) On the Conics Editor window, tap q, or tap [Form] and then [Insert Conics Form].
• This displays the Select Conics Form dialog box.
(2) Select “ ” and then tap [OK].
• This closes the Select Conics Form dialog box, and displays the selected equation in
the Conics Editor window.
(3) Change the coefficients of the equation as follows: A = 2, B = 3, H = 1, K = 2.
(4) Tap ^ to graph the equation.
