You can graph any one of the following types of implicit functions
using the calculator’s built-in functions.
• Parabolic graph
• Circle graph
• Elliptical graph
• Hyperbolic graph

kEntering the CONICS Mode
1. In the Main Menu, select the CONICS icon and enter the CONICS Mode.
When you do, the following built in function menu appears on the screen.
2. Use fand cto highlight the built-in function you want, and then press w.
The following nine functions are built in.
Graph Type Function
Parabola X = A (Y – K)2+ H
X = AY2+ BY + C
Y =A (X – H)2+ K
Y =AX2+ BX + C
Circle (X – H)2+ (Y – K)2= R2
AX2+AY2+ BX + CY + D = 0
Ellipse (X – H)2(Y – K)2

14-2 Graphing an Implicit Function
Example 1 To graph the circle (X – 1)2+ (Y – 1)2= 22
Use the following View Window parameters.
Xmin = –6.3 Ymin = –3.1
Xmax = 6.3 Ymax = 3.1
Xscale = 1 Yscale = 1
1. Select the function whose graph you want to draw.

2. Press wand the variable input screen appears.
• The values that appear are the values currently assigned to each variable,
which are general variables used by the calculator. If the values include an
imaginary part, only the real part appears on the display.
3. Assign values to each variable.

• You can also use fand cto highlight a variable and then input a value.
4. Press 6(DRAW) to draw the graph.
• Certain View Window parameters can make a circle graph come out looking
like an ellipse. When this happens, you can use the graph correction function
(SQR) to make corrections and produce a perfect circle.

kImplicit Function Graphing Precautions
• Assigning the following types of values to variables contained in built-in
function produces an error.
(1) Parabola graph
A = 0
(2) Circle graph
R = 0 for (X – H)2+ (Y – K)2= R2
A = 0 for AX2+AY2+ BX + CY + D = 0
(3) Ellipse/hyperbola graph
A = 0 or B = 0

Graphing an Implicit Function 14 - 2
• Implicit function graphs can be drawn in blue only.
• You cannot overwrite implicit function graphs.
• The calculator automatically clears the screen before drawing a new implicit
function graph.
• You can use trace, scroll, zoom, or sketch after graphing an implicit function.
However, an implicit function graph cannot be scrolled while using trace.
• You cannot incorporate graphing of an implicit function into a program.

Axis of symmetry Focus F (p, 0)
• A parabola is the locus of points equidistant from fixed line land fixed point F
not on the line. Fixed point F is the “focus,” fixed line lis the “directrix,” the
horizontal line that passes through the focus directrix is the “axis of symme-
try,” the length of a straight line that intersects the parabola, passes through
the locus, and is parallel to fixed line lis the “latus rectum,” and pointA
where the parabola intersects the axis of symmetry is the “vertex.”
• An ellipse is the locus of points the sum of the distances of each of which
from two fixed points F and F’ is constant. Points F and F’ are the “foci,”
pointsA, A’, B, and B’ where the ellipse intersects the x- and y-axes are the
“vertexes,” the x-coordinate values of vertexes Aand A’ are called x-
intercepts, and the y-coordinate values of vertexes B and B’ are called y-
intercepts.
Latus rectum
198
• A hyperbola is the locus of points related to two given points F and F’ such
that the difference in distances of each point from the two given points is
constant.
Points F and F’ are the “foci,” points A andA’ where the hyperbola intersects
the x-axis are the “vertexes,” the x-coordinate values of vertexesA and A’ are
called x-intercepts, the y-coordinate values of vertexes A and A’ are called y-
intercepts, and straight lines land l' , which get closer to the hyperbola as
they move away from the foci are “asymptotes.”

14-3 Implicit Function Graph Analysis
You can determine approximations of the following analytical results using implicit
function graphs.
• Focus/vertex calculation
• Latus rectum calculation
• Center/radius calculation
•x-/y-intercept calculation
• Directrix/axis of symmetry drawing and analysis
• Asymptote drawing and analysis
After graphing an implicit function, press 5(G-Solv) to display the Graph
Analysis Menu.
Parabolic Graph Analysis
•{FOCS} ... {determines the focus}
•{SYM}/{DIR} ... draws the {axis of symmetry}/{directrix}
•{VTX}/{LEN} ... determines the {vertex}/{latus rectum}
Circle Graph Analysis
•{CNTR}/{RADS} ... determines the {center}/{radius}
Ellipse Graph Analysis
•{FOCS}/{X-IN}/{Y-IN} ... determines the {focus}/{x-intercept}/{y-intercept}
