What are conics?
Conics, or conic sections, are the intersection of a plane with an infinite double cone. If that plane cuts both cones, it is a hyperbola. If it is parallel to the edge of the cone, you get a parabola. If neither is the case, it is an ellipse. The ellipse is also a circle if the plane is perpendicular to the altitude of the cone. Note that none of these are the case if the plane passes through the vertex of the cone.
What is produced when you slice a cone at different angles?
When a cone is sliced parallel to the base then the shape produced is a circle. If the cone is sliced at an angle so that the cut goes completely through the cone then an ellipse is produced. If the cut is made perpendicular to the cone's base then the shape produced is a parabola.
A plane figure formed by the intersection of a double right cone and a plane?
By "double right cone" do you mean one right cone sitting normal with another right cone upside-down atop the first cone? If so, then we you take that double right cone and intersect it with a plane at different angles, you get the conic sections. (i.e. hyperbola, parabola, elipse, circle)
If a right circular cone is intersected by a plane that passes through only one nappe of the cone but is not parallel to an edge of the cone what shape is produced?
An ellipse is produced.
If a circular cone is intersected by a plane so that the intersection goes through its vertex as well as the edge of the nappe what shape is produced?
If I understand your description correctly, a line.
Is a parabola formed when a plane slices through a double cone perpendicular to the bases of the cone?
No. A hyperbola is formed when a plane slices a cone perpendicular to the bases.
What figured is formed when a triangle moves through space in a line perpendicular to a plane?
Prism
Which shapes have curved edges?
circles, ellipses conics which are formed by cutting a cone with a plane not passing through its nappus
Cutting section of cone in ellipse?
Tilt of cutting plane is between (perpendicular to axis of the cone) and (parallel to the side of the cone).
What are perpendicular bisectors?
A line that is perpendicular to the segment of a plane and passes through the midpoint.
What is a cutting plane line?
A cutting plane line consists of a thick line shown through an area adjacent to the visible "cut" to clarify what is seen inside an object. Connected to the end of the line are two perpendicular lines with arrows showing the direction of view.
How many images will be formed when three plane mirrors are mutually perpendicular?
7
What is section plane?
Section plane is the intersection of a plane cutting through a solid
When is a line perpendicular to a plane?
A line is perpendicular to a plane when it is perpendicular on two lines from the plane
