OBJECTIVES
Conic Sections: Overview
In this chapter, we study curves called conic sections. As the name implies, these curves are the sections of a cone (similar to an ice cream cone) formed when a plane intersects the cone.

RIGHT CIRCULAR CONE
Draw a circle on a flat surface. Draw a line called the axis, that passes through the center of the circle and is perpendicular to the flat surface. Choose a point above the flat surface on this line. The surface consisting of all the lines that simultaneously pass through both the point and the circle is called a right circular cone with vertex V. The vertex separates the surface into two parts called nappes of the cone.

CIRCLE
If the slicing the plane is horizontal (parallel to the surface), then a circle is formed.

ELLIPSE
If the slicing the plane is inclined slightly from the horizontal, then an oval shaped curve called an ellipse is formed.

PARABOLA
If the slicing the plane is parallel to the “side” of the cone, then the curve formed is called a parabola.

HYPERBOLA
If the slicing the plane intersects both nappes of the cone, the resulting curve formed is called a hyperbola.

DEGENERATE CONIC SECTIONSThe point and lines obtained by a slicing plane through the vertex are called degenerate conic sections.
