### About Second Degree Inequalities:

When we graph a non-linear inequality, we start with the boundary. We graph the boundary by replacing the inequality symbol with an equality symbol and graphing the resulting equation. We can use a test point to find and shade the appropriate region. When we encounter a system of non-linear inequalities, we graph each inequality and shade the overlap of the graphs as our solution to the system.
