Analytic geometry A branch of mathematics which uses algebraic equations Rene Descartes and Pirre de Fermat French mathematicians independently developed the foundations for analytic geometry Cartesian geometry Analytic geometry is also known as... Cartesian plane The basis of analytic geometry Conic sections The curves formed by the intersection of a plane and a double right circular cone Circle When the plane is horizontal

Right angles Angles of the measurement of 90° all right angles are congruent Straight angle To race to go in opposite directions that foreman angle measurement of 180° all straight angles are congruent Interior angle In Angle in the interior (inside) of a figure Exterior angle In angle on the exterior outside of a figure that is adjacent to an interior angle Corresponding angle Angles/sides that have the same relative position Complementary angle Some of the angle measurements add ...

given point on a parabola is equal to the distance from that point to the focus. Latus Rectum The line segment is perpendicular to the axis of symmetry (and therefore parallel to the directory) which runs through the focus. Bounded by points (a,2a), (a, -2a), with a length of 4a. First General Equation of a Parabola y² = 4ax Where the vertex is at (0,0). Focus is located at (a,0). DirectX is represented by x = -a. The Axis of symmetry is the x-axis. Opens to the right. Second General ...

Capital / Capital goods the tools, equipment, machinery, and factories used in the production of goods and services. It is a result of production. Capital is the second fact...

both the buyer and seller Economic progress reflects that people are achieving higher income levels and living standards Voluntary trade promotes economic progress because it makes larger outputs possible as a result of specialization. Higher transaction costs will tend to reduce the number of mutually beneficial exchanges Middlemen Increase transaction goods If the Internet helps buyers learn about the availability of products and find potential sellers more quickly, the gains from t...
