AN 17 01. Conic section : F(x,y) = 0
F(x,y) = A*x^2 + B*x*y + C*y^2 + D*x + e*y + F = 0
Discriminant Q = B^2 - 4*A*C
Q EQ 0, it is parabola
Q LT 0, it is ellipse
Q GT 0, it is hyperbola
It is a circle if A EQ C and B EQ 0
How to sketch F(x,y) on computer ?
Method 1 : Express y = G(x)
Method 2 : Elliminate x*y term by rotating an angle U
Then we can change it as standard form ((x-h))^2 + ((y-k)/b)^2 = 1
Then we can plot the graph in Oxy system
Then rotate the plot by an angle of A

AN 17 02. Elliminate x*y term
F(x,y) = A*x^2 + B*x*y + C*y^2 + D*x + E*y + F = 0
Question
Eliminate x*y term by rotating an angle
The angle is tan(Ang) = (A - C)/B
After rotation : F(,u,v) = P*u^2 + Q*u*v + R*v^2 +S*u + T*v + W = 0
Rotation : u = x*cos(Ang) + y*sin(Ang) and v = -x*sin(Ang) + y*cos(Ang)
Substitute rotation formula into F(x,y) = 0 and simplify we have
P = A * Cos(ANG) ^ 2 + C * Sin(ANG) ^ 2 + B * Cos(ANG) * Sin(ANG)
Q = 2*(C - A)*cos(Ang)*sin(Ang) + B*(cos(Ang)^2 - sin(ANg)^2)
R = A * Sin(ANG) ^ 2 + C * Cos(ANG) ^ 2 - B * Cos(ANG) * Sin(ANG)
S = D * Cos(ANG) + E * Sin(ANG)
T = -D * Sin(ANG) + E * Cos(ANG)
W = F
To elliminate x*y term means Q = 0 in F(u, v)
Hence 2*(A - C)*cos(Ang)*sin(Ang) = B*(cos(Ang)^2 - sin(Ang)^2)
Hence (A - C)*sin(2*Ang) = B*cos(2*Ang)
Hence tan(2*Ang) = (B)/(A - C)
or Ang = 0.5*arctan(B/(A - C))

AN 17 03. Change x*y = 1 to (u/a)^2 - (v/b)^2
Example : Rotate 45 degrees of x*y = 1
A = 0, B = 1, C = 0, D = 0, E = 0, F = -1
Hence tan(2*Ang) = (B)/(A - C) = infinite and Ang = pi/2
Hence Ang = 45 degrees
P = +B*cos(ang)*sin(Ang) = 1/2
R = -B*cos(ANg)*sin(Ang) = -1/2
S = 0 and T = 0
W = -1
After rotating 45 degree, the new equation (u^2)/2 - (v^2)/2 - 1 = 0
Standard hyperbola form is (u/Sqr(2))^2 - (v/Sqr(2))^2 = 1
