Conic Sections are figures that can be formed by slicing a three dimensional right circular cone with a plane. There are different ways to do this, and each way yields a different figure. These figures can be represented on the graph as well as algebraically. The four conic sections are circles, ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas.

How are hyperbolas different from parabolas?

hyperbolas have an eccentricity (fixed point to fixed line ratio) that is greater than 1, while the parabolas have an exact eccentricity that is equal to 1. And hyperbolas are always come in pairs while parabolas are not.

How many solutions Two distinct parabolas?

Two distinct parabolas can intersect in a maximum of four points, which corresponds to the highest degree of the resulting polynomial equation formed when setting their equations equal to each other. Depending on their orientation and position, they might intersect at zero, one, two, three, or four points. If they are parallel and do not intersect, there will be no solutions. If they coincide completely, they are not distinct, so that scenario is not applicable here.
