The standard equation of central conicoid with centre (0,0,0) is Ax2+By2+Cz2=1 various kind of central conicoid are as follows. 1) ellipsoid 2)hyperboloid of one sheet 3) hyperboloid of two sheets 4) virtual ellipsoid
A surface in three dimensional space which is based on but is not exactly a conic shape. The -oid suffix acts in the same way for a cuboid which is like a cube but is not - it is actually a rectangular prism.
