A plane intersects one nappe of a double-napped cone such that it is perpendicular to the vertical axis of the cone and it does not contain the vertex of the cone.
Which conic section is formed?
parabola
ellipse
circle
hyperbola

Respuesta :

There is two possible conic section that can be formed when the plane intersects the vertical axis, a circle, and an ellipse. Cutting one nappe of double napped cone perpendicular to the vertical axis means the cut is straight across the cone making a right angle. The conic section formed would be a circle

The conic section that will be formed if plane intersects one nappe of a double-naped cone

is a circle.

What is a Cone?

A cone serves as a three-dimensional geometric shape which has a base as well as an end which is narrow.

Therefore, a circle will be formed because when the cutting of the double-naped cone is perpendicular,

It means it cutting at a straight line which means it's at right angle which implies that the conic section that will surface is a circle.
