Pre cal test 1

a figure formed by the intersection of a plane and a right circular cone. Depending on the angle of the plane with respect to the cone, a conic section may be a circle, an ellipse, a parabola, or a hyperbola.

It is the set of points in a plane that are equidistant from a given point

It is an oval shape similar to a circle but longer and flatter.

It is two-branched open curve, a conic section, produced by the intersection of a circular cone and a plane that cuts both nappes (see cone) of the cone..

It is the curve of infinite extent lying

on one nape, if the cutting plane is parallel to an element of the cone.
