3 Product Description This resource is designed for PreCalculus or Geometry. Included: There are two sets of 12 illustrated task cards related to applications of conics, one set has QR codes with the answers and one set does not. Hyperbolas, Ellipses, and parabolas are included in the real world applications. *Master List of questions which can be used for an alternate class or for an absentee. *Two quizzes or additional HW assignments with similar problems. *Answer key *Student response sheet with room for work and unnumbered so you can choose the cards you want.

4 Ideas for Task Cards First, print the cards on card stock. These print out well in black and white but can be decorated with a highlighter before laminating. Laminating makes the cards more durable and they can be used year after year. Print a copies of the student response sheet for each student. There are multiple ways to use these task cards in your classroom. Students can work alone, randomly pair up, or work in small groups. When students work in pairs or small groups, give as many task cards as there are students. This way they can help each other, work together, and each student has a task. After a few minutes, depending upon the difficulty level and your experience, each group passes their cards to the next group. You may also set up math stations with these cards. If you are new to task cards please download a free product which describes and explains Task Cards. It is full of great ideas written by a great teacher. Here is a shortened link to it. me if there are any questions.

5 1. The roof of a building is in the shape of the hyperbola, y 2 x 2 =15 where x and y are in meters. Refer to the figure and determine the height, h, of the outside walls. 2. A nuclear cooling tower cross section is a hyperbola having a diameter of 60 ft. at the center. The distance between the two foci is 98 ft. What is the equation for the hyperbola? 3. A comet follows the hyperbolic path 2 2 described by x y - =1 2 4 where x and y are in millions of miles. If the sun is the focus of the path, how close to the sun is the vertex of the path? 4. A carpenter wants to cut the largest possible ellipse from a 11 ft by 12 ft rectangular board. After the foci are located, a string is connected to them and pulled taut by a pencil in order to draw the ellipse. Find the length of the string.

6 5. A rectangular board is 16 ft. by 20 ft. How far from the center of the board should the foci be located in order to cut the largest elliptical tabletop from the board? 6. A field microphone used at a soccer game has a parabolic cross section and is 20 in. wide at the opening. The focus is 9 in. from the vertex. Find the depth of the microphone. 7. A cross-section of an irrigation canal is a parabola. If the surface of the water is 40 ft. wide and the canal is 28 ft. deep at the center, how deep is it 18 ft. from the edge? 40 ft. 8. A satellite dish has a parabolic cross section and is 6 ft. deep. The focus is 16 ft. from the vertex. Find the width of the satellite dish at the opening. Round your answer to the nearest foot.

7 9. A building has an entry with the shape of a parabolic arch 8 ft. high and 34 ft. wide at the base. Find an equation for the parabola if the vertex is put at the origin of the coordinate system. 10. A railroad tunnel is shaped like a semiellipse. The height of the tunnel at the center is 28 ft. and the vertical clearance must be 14 ft. at a point 18 ft. from the center. Find an equation for the ellipse. 11. An elliptical riding path is to be built on a rectangular piece of property that measures 6 mi. by 4 mi. Find an equation for the ellipse if the path is to touch the center of the property line on all 4 sides. 12. A spotlight has a parabolic cross section that is 6 ft wide at the opening and 2.5 ft deep at the vertex. How far from the vertex is the focus? Round answer to two decimal places.
