Conic Sections Formula Sheet

The document summarizes the key properties of conic sections including circles, parabolas, ellipses, and hyperbolas. Circles have a constant distance from the center and standard equation of (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2. Parabolas have an equation of y^2 = 4ax and focus at infinity. Ellipses have two foci and the sum of the distances to the foci is constant. Hyperbolas have two branches and two vertices, with the difference between the distances to the two foci being constant.
