1. Identity Function-This is the only function thats acts on every real number by leaving it alone 2. Square Root Function-Put any positive number into your calculator. Take the square root. Then take the square root again, and so on. Eventually you will always get 1. 3. Squaring Function-The graph of this function, called a parabola, had a reflection property that is useful in making flashlights and satellite dishes. 4. Cubing Function-The origin is called a ?point of inflection? for this curve because the graph changes the curvature at the point. 5. Reciprocal Function-This curve, called a hyperbola, also has a reflection property that is useful in satellite dishes. 6. Natural Log Function-This function increases very slowly. If the x-axis and y-axis

An ellipse is the set of points such that the sum of the distances from any point on the ellipse to two other fixed points is constant. The two fixed points are called the foci (plural of focus) of the ellipse. Figure %: The sum of the distances d1 + d2 is the same for any point on the ellipse. The line segment containing the foci of an ellipse with both endpoints on the ellipse is called the major axis. The endpoints of the major axis are called the vertices. The point halfway between the foci is the center of the ellipse. The line segment perpendicular to the major axis and passing through the center, with both endpoints on the ellipse, is the minor axis.

Analytic geometry is roughly the same as plane geometry except that in analytic geometry, figures are studied in the context of the coordinate plane. Instead of focusing on the congruence of shapes like plane geometry, analytic geometry deals with the coordinates of shapes and formulas for their graphs in the coordinate plane. Much of analytic geometry focuses on the conics. A conic is a two-dimensional figure created by the intersection of a plane and a right circular cone. All conics can be written in terms of the following equation: Ax2 + Bxy + Cy2 + Dx + Ey + F = 0 . The four conics we'll explore in this text are parabolas, ellipses, circles, and hyperbolas.
