What is a point that helps define an ellipse parabola and hyperbola?
focus
Is a graph of a quadratic function always a parabola?
No. It can also be a circle, ellipse or hyperbola.
What 2D shape looks like a squashed circle and no straight edges?
an ellipse, one of the four types of "conic sections": ellipse, circle, parabola, and hyperbola
What words did Apollonius of Perga introduce into the language of mathematics?
He is credited with introducing the words: ellipse, parabola and hyperbola.
What can be formed when a plane intersects a cone?
The various shapes are: point, straight line, circle, ellipse, parabola and hyperbola.

The orbit of a planet around the sun is a ellipse straight line circle or parabola?
The orbit of a planet around the sun is called an ellipse.
What are the geometric characteristics of a circle ellipse parabola and hyperbola?
They are all conic sections.

How many foci does a parabola have?
A parabola has a single focus point. There is a line running perpendicular to the axis of symmetry of the parabola called the directrix. A line running from the focus to a point on the parabola is going to have the same distance as from the point on the parabola to the closest point of the directrix. In theory you could look at a parabola as being an ellipse with one focus at infinity, but that really doesn't help any. ■
Which shape has no vertices?
Shapes that have no veces include a circle, sphere, ellipse, ellipsoid, parabola, hyperbola, paraboloid, or hyperboid.
Does a conic section have vertices?
No, a conic section does not have vertices. If it is a circle, it has a center; if it is a parabola or hyperbola, it has a focus; and if it is an ellipse, it has foci.
In what topics models can be made in maths exhibition?
conic sections like hyperbola parabola circle nd ellipse....
What is the tilted away cross section of a cone?
Depends on the way you cut the cone, but the outline is either an ellipse or a parabola.
