Math Milestone
Across
- 3. This is a line which is part of a hyperbola; it goes near the branch but never intersects it
- 6. This axis generalizes the major and minor axes of an ellipse or hyperbola
- 9. The line that passes through the foci in a hyperbola (2 wds)
- 11. The longest diameter of an ellipse, or the line that passes through the foci of a hyperbola (2 wds)
- 13. A curve surrounding two points where the sum of the two distances from the two points to all points on the curve is a constant
- 16. A curve where all points are at an equal distance to a central point
- 18. All possible inputs in a function
- 20. The point where all points in a parabola is an equal distance from the directrix
- 21. All possible outputs in a function
- 22. The point on each branch of a hyperbola closest to its center
- 23. The shortest diameter of an ellipse, or the line that passes through the center of a parabola (2 wds)
Down
- 1. An open curve formed by the intersection of a circular cone with a plane at a smaller angle with its axis than the side of the cone
- 2. All curves have a line where each side is a mirror image of the other; this line is the axis-of-___
- 4. A format of the circle equation that is as follows: (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 (2 wds)
- 5. A line segment that passes through the focus of a parabola and is perpendicular to the directrix (2 wds)
- 7. This section is a slice of a cone
- 8. This is what f(x) is to x
- 10. How circular an ellipse is
- 12. A line segment that starts at the center of a circle and ends on the surface
- 14. A curve where any point is an equal distance from a fixed point and a fixed line
- 15. A collection of elements; one half of a function
- 17. A function made of other functions
- 19. A fixed line part of curves, especially in a parabola
- 20. A relationship between two sets where an element in one set has a single mate in the other set
- 22. A value in a function which can be changed
