Circle
- the conic section formed by the plane being parallel to the base of the cone.
Parabola
- is formed when the plane is parallel to the surface of the cone, resulting in a U-shaped curve
that lies on the plane.
Ellipse
- is formed when a plane is not parallel to the surface and the base of the cone
Hyperbola
- the conic section formed by the plane being perpendicular to the base of the cone.
- is when a plane does not pass through the vertex of the cone.
APOLLONIUS OF PERGA
The graph of the second-degree equation of the form: A x 2+ Bxy +C x 2+ Dx+ Ey+ F=0
CIRCLE
PARABOLA
- is the set of points that are equidistant from the fixed point and fixed line.
Focus
- is the fixed point.
Vertex
- is the midpoint between the focus and directrix.
Directrix
- is the fixed line.
Axis of Symmetry
- it is a line that is perpendicular to the directrix and the focal chord.
Latus Rectum
- focal chord
- it is a line that passes through the focus.
- it is parallel to directrix.
- for parabolas whose opening is upward or downward.
- for parabolas whose opening is to the left or to the right.
