- Angles Between Lines: Determining the smallest angle between two given lines.
- Right Triangles: Finding the hypotenuse and other sides using given line equations and points.
- Distance to a Point: Finding the equation of a line equidistant from a specific point and axis.
- Ellipses: Working with ellipses defined by eccentricities, focal points, and directrices, and calculating distances, axes, and center points.
- Identifying and Characterizing Conic Sections: Given certain equations, identifying whether they represent ellipses and finding the centers, axes, and eccentricities.
- Hyperbolas: Finding focal points, axes, asymptotes, and directrices for hyperbolas, along with their eccentricities.
