Rotating a non-vertical line such as the line y = -x about a vertical line such as the y axis at their point of intersection, a double napped right circular hollow cone is obtained. One of seven curves namely circle, ellipse, parabola, hyperbola, point, line and intersecting lines will be formed when a plane intersects the double napped right circular cone depending on the value of d ranging from d=-15 through to d=5 only existing to translate the plane so it may pass or not pass through the vertex and the value of a ranging from a=0 through to a=145 only existing to rotate the plane after it has been translated
How can I descritize or say mesh the conic section which results as the intersection?
