Diskusi Konsep

1. Question about the Ellipse:

• Given Equation: (x^2/9) + (y^2/4) = 1
• Lengths of the Axes:
  • Semi-major axis a = 3 (since a^2 = 9)
  • Semi-minor axis b = 2 (since b^2 = 4)
  • Length of the major axis 2a = 6
  • Length of the minor axis 2b = 4
• Eccentricity:
  • e = sqrt(1 - (b^2/a^2))
  • e = sqrt(1 - (4/9))
  • e = sqrt(5/9)
  • e ≈ 0.745 2. Question about the Hyperbola:
• Given Equation: 4x^2 - 9y^2 = 36
• Standard Form: (x^2/9) - (y^2/4) = 1 (by dividing all terms by 36)
• Lengths of the Axes:
  • a^2 = 9, hence a = 3
  • b^2 = 4, therefore b = 2
• Eccentricity:
  • e = sqrt(1 + (b^2/a^2))
  • e = sqrt(1 + (4/9))
  • e = sqrt(13/9)
  • e ≈ 1.201
• Foci:
  • Coordinates of the foci: (±c, 0)
  • c = sqrt(a^2 + b^2)
  • c = sqrt(9 + 4)
  • c ≈ 3.606
  • Hence, the foci are (±3.606, 0) 3. Question about the Parabola:
• Given Equation: y^2 = 12x
• Focus:
  • In standard form: y^2 = 4ax
  • 4a = 12, leading to a = 3
  • Focus (a, 0)
  • So, the focus is (3, 0)
• Directrix:
  • Directrix equation: x = -a
  • Therefore, the directrix is x = -3
