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 are ellipses used in real life?
Parabolas are used in satalights and flash lights and archiceture and maths, whoever wrote eggs is very wrong parabolas ends never meet * * * * * All very true. The only problem is that a parabola is not an ellipse! One of the main uses for an ellipse is to describe planetary orbits.
