The GSE standards addressed in this book are:
[b]Translate between the geometric description and the equation for a conic section[/b]
MGSE9-12.G.GPE.1 Derive the equation of a circle of given center and radius using the Pythagorean Theorem; complete the square to find the center and radius of a circle given by an equation.
[b]Use coordinates to prove simple geometric theorems algebraically
[/b]
MGSE9-12.G.GPE.4 Use coordinates to prove simple geometric theorems algebraically. For example, prove or disprove that a figure defined by four given points in the coordinate plane is a rectangle; prove or disprove that the point (1, √3) lies on the circle centered at the origin and containing the point (0,2). (Focus on quadrilaterals, right triangles, and circles.)
MGSE9-12.G.GPE.5 Prove the slope criteria for parallel and perpendicular lines and use them to solve geometric problems (e.g., find the equation of a line parallel or perpendicular to a given line that passes through a given point).
MGSE9-12.G.GPE.6 Find the point on a directed line segment between two given points that partitions the segment in a given ratio.
MGSE9-12.G.GPE.7 Use coordinates to compute perimeters of polygons and areas of triangles and rectangles, e.g., using the distance formula.
