A quadratic equation of the form \"Ax%5E2%2BBxy%2BCy%5E2%2BDx%2BEy%2BF=0\" could represent a circle, ellipse, hyperbola, parabola. There are special cases where I could represent a point, a line, a pair of lines or no point that could exist, depending on the values of the coefficients.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "In the case of \"11x%5E2-50sqrt%283%29xy-39y%5E2%2B576=0\" we have
\n" ); document.write( "\"S=11\" , \"B=-50sqrt%283%29\" , \"C=-39\" , \"F=574\" and \"D=E=0\" .
\n" ); document.write( "The value \"B%5E2-4AC\" , called the discriminant, suggests parabola, ellipse, or hyperbola if it is zero, negative, or positive respectively.
\n" ); document.write( "\"B%5E2-4AC=%28-50sqrt%283%29%29%5E2-4%2A11%2A%28-39%29=7500%2B1716=9216\" suggest it's a hyperbola.
\n" ); document.write( "Symmetry and other considerations help visualize the curve represented too.
\n" ); document.write( "We can see that if a point (x,y) satisfies that equation, the point (-x, -y) will also satisfy that equation. That tells us that the set of points satisfying that equation is symmetrical with respect to the origin.
\n" ); document.write( "When \"x=0\" , the equation turns into \"-39y%5E2%2B576=0\" , and there is here is no solution for \"y\" , so we know that the curve does not touch or cross the y-axis. That, for an equation with \"x%5E2\" and \"y%5E2\" makes me suspect an hyperbola.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Rotating such a curve (counterclockwise) by an angle \"alpha\" we would get another equation with the coefficients A', B', C', and F' replacing A, B, C, and F.
\n" ); document.write( "The formulas to find the new coefficients are:
\n" ); document.write( "A'=\"A%2Acos%5E2%28alpha%29%2BB%2Acos%28alpha%29%2Asin%28alpha%29%2BC%2Asin%5E2%28alpha%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "B'=\"B%28cos%5E2%28alpha%29-sin%5E2%28alpha%29%29%2B2%28C-A%29cos%28alpha%29%2Asin%28alpha%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "C'=\"A%2Asin%5E2%28alpha%29-B%2Acos%28alpha%29%2Asin%28alpha%29%2BC%2Acos%5E2%28alpha%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "F'=F
\n" ); document.write( "\"alpha=60%5Eo\" , so \"cos%28alpha%29=1%2F2\" and \"sin%28alpha%29=sqrt%283%29%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "A'=
\n" ); document.write( "B'=
\n" ); document.write( "C'=
\n" ); document.write( "F'=576
\n" ); document.write( "The rotated curve equation is \"-64x%5E2%2B36y%5E2=576\" , which can be rewritten as
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%5E2%2F16-x%5E2%2F9=1\" or \"y%5E2%2F4%5E2-x%5E2%2F3%5E2=1\"
\n" ); document.write( "That represents a hyperbola centered at the origin, with vertices at (0,-4) and (0,4) and asymptotes \"y=%22+%22+%2B-+%284%2F3%29x\"
\n" ); document.write( "Her is what the two branches of the hyperbola and its asymptotes look like:
