Miss Black concludes Module 14 with a focus on vocabulary related to conics. The lesson explains how different conic sections (circle, ellipse, hyperbola, parabola) are formed by slicing a cone in various ways. Students learn to identify and graph both linear and conic equations, understanding the characteristics of each. The lesson emphasizes recognizing equations and predicting their graphs before plotting them. The session wraps up with a summary of graphing concepts and a preview of upcoming modules.
