In a right circular cone a line from the vertex to the center of the circular base is perpendicular to the base. In an oblique circular cone that same line will not be perpendicular.
The axis of a right circular cone is perpendicular to every radius or diameter of the base.
No. A hyperbola is formed when a plane slices a cone perpendicular to the bases.
A "perpendicular bisector" is a line. There are no triangles of any kind in a line.

None.
Circle: If the knife is perpendicular to the axis of the cone.Ellipse: If the knife is between (perpendicular to the axis of the cone) and (parallel to the side of the cone).Parabola: If the knife is between (parallel to the side of the cone) and (parallel to the axis of the cone).Hyperbola: If the knife is parallel to the axis of the cone.Triangle: If the knife is perpendicular to the base of the cone.Point: If the knife is parallel to the base the cone and through the apex

if the triangle is a right angle it has 2 perpendicular line segments.

A right circular cone looks like a martini glass. Actually, the martini glass is only a part of one half of the cone. Think also of an ice cream cone, again being part of one half. Formally, the right circular cone is the surface in three-dimensional space swept by a line that intersects a point and the domain of the circumference of a circle, said point lying on a line perpendicular (right angle) to the circle and intersecting its radius. Since the line sweeps through a point, there are two nappes, one on each side of that single point. The perpendicular line is called the axis, and the point is called the vertex.
