11. x²-y²-4x-6y=0 → HYPERBOLA

x²-4x-y²-6y=0
(x²-4x)-(y²+6y)=0
(x²-4x+4)-(y²+6y+9)=4-9
(x-2)²-(y+3)²=-5

( x−2 )2−( y +3 )2 −5
=
−5 −5

( x−2 )2 ( y+ 3 )2
- =1
−5 −5

( x−2 )2 ( y+ 3 )2
- + =1

( y+ 3 )2 ( x−2 )2
- =1
5 5

12. y²-x-10y-3=0 → PARABOLA

y²-10y=x+3
y²-10y+25=x+3+25
(y-5)²=x+28

41. Each suspension cable of a bridge is parabolic in shape which is supported by two pillars
that are 100m apart. The top of each pillar is 20m above the roadway. The cables touch the
roadway at the midpoint between the pillars. What is the height of the cable at a point 25 m from
the center of the bridge?

42. A conference room is shaped like semi-elliptic arch. The height of the arch is 5 m and its
width is 16m.
