A conic section is formed when a plane intersects a double-napped cone. We analyze the relationship between the generator angle and the cutting plane angle.
For each of the double-napped cones below, is the generator angle, and x is the angle formed by the cutting plane and the cone. Label each diagram according to what conic section is formed, and indicate the value or range of values for x.
The vertex angle of a double-napped cone is 80. The angle between the cutting plane and the central axis is x. Determine the value, or range of values, of x which would generate a) a circle YOU b) a parabola Will Not Get c) an ellipse BORED With Math d) a hyperbola
