Abstract:
Conic sections were first studied in 350 B.C. by Menaechmus, who cut a circular conical surface at various angles. Early mathematicians who added to the study of conics include Apollonius, who named them in 220 B.C., and Archimedes, who studied their fascinating properties around 212 B.C. In previous articles in this journal, conic sections have been shown both as an algebraic, or parametric, representation (Vonder Embse 1997) and as a geometric, that is, a paper-folding, model (Scher 1996). Both articles offer important insights into the mathematical nature of the conic sections and into teaching methods that can integrate conics into our curriculum. Even though many textbooks discuss conic equations and their graphs, they do not fully develop locus definitions of conic sections.

Abstract:
This paper tries to make sense of Kant’s scattered remarks about conic sections to see what light they shed on his philosophy of mathematics. It proceeds by confronting his remarks with the source that seems to have informed his thinking about conic sections: the Conica of Apollonius. The paper raises questions about Kant’s attitude towards mathematics and the way he understood the cognitive resources available to us to do mathematics.

Abstract:
A unified treatment of conic sections and polar equations of conics can be found in most calculus books where the reciprocals of limafçons are shown to be conic sections. The treatment, however, is from an algebraic standpoint and does not refer to the inherent connection between polar graphs and the graphs of trigonometric functions and conics. Beginning with information gained from the graphs of circular functions of the form y = A + B sin x, students can be guided to graph conic sections on the polar plane without using a table of values. This approach helps students to appreciate the roles that both algebra and coordinate geometry play in weaving various sections of mathematics into a meaningful whole.

Abstract:
Extracting the geometric characteristics of conic sections, such as their center, axes and foci, from their defining equations is required for various applications in computer graphics and geometric modeling. Although there exist standard techniques for computing the geometric characteristics for conics in implicit form, in shape modeling applications conic sections are often represented by rational quadratic parameterizations. Here we present closed formulas for computing the geometric characteristics of conics directly from their quadratic parameterizations without resorting to implicitization procedures. Our approach uses the invariants of rational quadratic parameterizations under rational linear reparameterizations. These invariants are also used to give a complete characterization of degenerate tonics represented by rational quadratic parameterizations.

Abstract:
In general, the conic section equation consists of three parts, namely quadratic, cross-product, and linear terms. A conic sections will be easily determined by its shape if it does not contain cross-product term, otherwise it is difficult to determine. Analytically a cone slice is a quadratic form of equation. A concept in linear algebraic discussion can be applied to facilitate the discovery of a shape of a conic section. The process of diagonalization can transform a quadratic form into another form which does not contain crosslinking tribes, ie by diagonalizing the quadrate portion. Hence this paper presents the application of an algebraic concept to find a form of conic sections.

This study entitled “Use of ICT in conic section: An experimental study” is an experimental research. ICT can be applied in conic sections which include parabola, ellipse, hyperbola, circle etc. For graphics and visualisation, geometric modelling, optics and imaging, satellite orbits, signal processing, engineering design, architectural design; ICT is used. The objectives of the study was “to compare the achievement of students taught by using ICT software and conventional teaching method while teaching conic section of grade XII.” The research was based on Vigotski’s constructivist view of learning. A pre-test and post-test of quasi-experimental research design was used to find the students’ achievement after experiment. Conventional sampling were used and two sections of Aadikavi bhanubhakta Secondary School were selected. Two sections were observed as Section ‘A’ of class XII was used for conventional group and section ‘B’ was used for experimental group. The school is located in Vyas Municipality ward no.1. There 28 students in section ‘A’ and 28 students in section ‘B’. For data collection, researcher used MAT. The result of Mathematics Achievement Test indicated that there was a significant difference between the average achievement of students taught by using ICT software and without using ICT software on post-test. The finding illustrated that the students in the experimental group performed better when using ICT software like Geogebra and Mathematica than the control group with the conventional method.

Abstract:
Nowadays, there are lots of Mathematics software and applications that learners can use for their learning, especially on graphing and one of those is GeoGebra. The main objective of this study was to determine the effects of graphing applications in illustrating the conic sections on student performance. A quantitative design specifically the correlational method was used to consider the extent to which differences between variables are related to the differences in other variables and to determine the relationship between student’s perception and performance in illustrating conic sections using graphing application. The respondents of this study were the Grade 11 Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics students of Araceli National High School consisting of 17 students. The findings showed a weak positive correlation between the student’s perception and performance in illustrating conic sections using a graphing application and a significant difference in the student’s performance in illustrating conic sections before and after using the application. The research findings suggested that all mathematics teachers should incorporate the use of graphing application – GeoGebra because it is highly beneficial and applicable in teaching topics involving graphing. Hence, future researchers should explore other graphing applications that could be used in teaching the conic sections.

Abstract:
Has been presented a geometrical proof of a theorem stating that when a plane section crosses second-order revolution surfaces (rotation quadrics, RQ), such types of conics as ellipse, hyperbola or parabola are formed. The theorem amplifies historically famous Dandelin theorem, which provides geometric proof only for the circular cone, and extends the proof to all RQ: ellipsoid, hyperboloid, paraboloid and cylinder. That is why the theorem described below has been called as Generalized Dandelin theorem (GDT). The GDT proof has been constructed on a little-known generalized definition (GDD) of the conic. This GDD defines the conic as a line, that is a geometrical locus of points (GLP) P, for which ratio q = PT / PD = const, where PT is tangential distance from the point to the circle inscribed in the line, and PD is distance from the point to the straight line passing through the tangency points of the circle and the line. Has been presented a proof of GDD for all types of conics as their necessary and sufficient condition. The proof is in the construction of a circular cone and inscribed in sphere which is tangent to a cutting plane line at two points. For this construction is defined the position of a cutting plane, giving in section the specified conic. On the GDD basis has been proved the GDT for all the RQ with the arbitrary position of the cutting plane. For the proving a tangent sphere is placed in the quadric. An auxiliary cutting plane passing through the quadric axis is introduced. It is proved that in a section by axial plane the GDD is performed as a necessary condition for the conic. The relationship between the axial section and the given one is established. This permits to make a conclusion that in the given section the GDD is performed as the conic’s sufficient condition. Visual stereometrical constructions that are necessary for the theorem proof have been presented. The implementation of constructions using 3D computer methods has been considered. The examples of constructions in AutoCAD package have been demonstrated. Some constructions have been carried out with implementation of 2D parameterization. With regard to affine transformations the possibility for application of Generalized Dandelin theorem to all elliptic quadrics has been demonstrated. This paper is meant for including the GDT in a new training course on theoretical basis for 3D engineering computer graphics as a part of students’ geometrical-graphic training.

Abstract:
Metacognitive regulation ability can assist students in abstracting the concept of a conic section. However, research exploring students’ metacognitive regulation in abstracting a mathematical concept is still rare. Thus, this study aims to analyze students' metacognitive regulation consisting of monitoring and controlling in abstracting the conic sections concept. Three students were selected as research subjects from 26 undergraduate of mathematics education Indonesian students who were engaged in abstraction assignments. Three students were selected based on their abstraction of the conic section concept, where only one student succeeded and two students represented two types of abstraction errors present in the class. An indicator of student success in abstracting the concept of a conic section is that students can correctly identify the relationship between eccentricity and the conic curve.. After completing the task, students are given the MAI questionnaire to identify their metacognitive regulations. There were 52 items in the MAI, of which 17 items represented metacognitive knowledge and 35 items represented metacognitive regulation. Hence, this study utilized the 35 items. The paper indicates that there is a positive relationship between metacognitive regulation and abstraction processes of the three students. This relationship is particularly evident in the metacognitive monitoring component. We hypothesize that students with good metacognitive monitoring are associated with the success of the abstraction process. The findings of this study contribute to further research by suggesting that designing learning environments that support metacognitive regulation will assist students in successfully abstracting mathematical concepts.

Abstract:
One of my goals, as a geometry teacher, is for my students to develop a deep and flexible understanding of the written definition of a geometric object and the corresponding prototypical diagram. Providing students with opportunities to explore analogous problems is an ideal way to help foster this understanding. Two ways to do this is either to change the surface from a plane to a sphere or change the metric from Pythagorean distance to taxicab distance (where distance is defined as the sum of the horizontal and vertical components between two points). Using a different surface or metric can have dramatic effects on the appearance of geometric objects. For example, in spherical geometry, triangles that are impossible in plane geometry (such as triangles with three right or three obtuse angles) are now possible. In taxicab geometry, a circle now looks like a Euclidean square that has been rotated 45 degrees.

This result is believable but certainly not intuitively obvious, yet it is almost never proved. In fact many of us who teach the conic sections have never seen a proof of this result.

Abstract:
We review the coherent state (or group-theoretical) construction of the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) on the two-sphere. Next, we describe the construction of a CWT on the upper sheet of a two-sheeted hyperboloid, emphasizing the similarities between the two cases. Finally, we give some indications on the CWT on a paraboloid and we introduce a unified approach to the CWT on conic sections.
