Conics, Sequences&Series, Review (the rest of the year)

We don't have much time so the last two units are done very quickly with little in the way of extensions. The dates are for G-Block. E-Block loses a day on Conic Sections because of MCAS.
Conic Sections are covered in Ch 8 of the Demana book and Ch 6 of the Brown book.

           HW D p.599-600/3-36 by 3's,46,53 (omit eccentricity) and B p.249/9
5/19  Hyperbolas
           HW D p.609-610/3-36 by 3's, 51,52,54,55,59,61
5/20  Parabolas
           HW D p.587-588/3-42 by 3's, 49-55 odd,59,61

5/23  Focus-Directrix Definitions for all conics
           HW B p.249/1-3; p.250-251/1-3,21,22 and D p.590/74-76
5/24  Parametric Definitions for all conics
           HW finish handout
5/26  Solving Quadratic Systems, Rotating Conics (may be skipped for E-Block)
           HW finish handout plus B p.245/18,20,22-24; p.251/15-19 odd
5/27  Review
