Closed conic section shaped like a flattened circle?

What is the definition of a conic section?
the figure defined by intersection of a cone and a plane.
What is the best definition of conic section?
the figure defined by intersection of a cone and a plane.
What is a conic section formed by the intersection of a right circular cone by a plane that cuts the axis and the surface of the cone called?
It sounds like this describes the conic section which is 2 straight lines intersecting at the origin [degenerate form of a hyperbola], but I may be misunderstanding the phrasing of the question.
What conic section is defined by the set of all points in a plane that are equidistant from a single point and a line?
It is a parabola.
Which conic section is a closed curve?
circle and ellipse are closed curved conic section!, from bilal , Pakistan
Who discovered the conic section?
Leibniz
What a conic section?
A conic section is a curve formed by the intersection of a plane with a cone (conical surface). If the section is parallel to the base of the cone, the conic section has a fixed diameter and is a circle. Any other plane that does not intersect the apex is either a parabola, a hyperbola, or an ellipse.
What is a conic section?
A conic section is a curve formed by the intersection of a plane with a cone (conical surface). If the section is parallel to the base of the cone, the conic section has a fixed diameter and is a circle. Any other plane that does not intersect the apex is either a parabola, a hyperbola, or an ellipse.
What is the name of a tapered cylinder with different diameters each end?
Bi-truncated conic section, or doubly-truncated conic section
Which conic section has a directrix?
Parabolas have directori.
Which shape never have parallel sides?
Any conic section.
How conics generated?
A conic section is generated by the intersection of a plane with a double cone. The specific shape of the conic section (ellipse, parabola, hyperbola, or circle) depends on the angle of the plane in relation to the axis of the cone. The different conic sections result from different orientations of the cutting plane.
What conic sections describes a closed curve?
An ellipse is a conic section which is a closed curve. A circle is a special case of an ellipse.

What is the definition of a conic section?

What is the focal radii?
The focal radii are the distances from the focal point of a conic section (such as a ellipse or a hyperbola) to a point on the curve along the major or minor axis. They are important in defining the shape and orientation of the conic section.
