Difference between Conic Section and Conic

CONIC SECTION vs CONIC: NOUN

(geometry) a curve generated by the intersection of a plane and a circular cone
Any of the four distinct shapes that are the intersections of a cone with a plane, namely the circle, ellipse, parabola and hyperbola.
A graph of the general quadratic equation in two variables.
The intersection of a right circular cone and a plane, which generates one of a group of plane curves, including the circle, ellipse, hyperbola, and parabola.

Plural See conics.
A conic section (which see, under I.); a plane curve of the second order and second class, or the equation to such a curve.
A conic section.
(geometry) a curve generated by the intersection of a plane and a circular cone

Relating to or resembling a cone
Conical.
Having the form of, or resembling, a geometrical cone; round and tapering to a point, or gradually lessening in circumference.
Of or pertaining to a cone.
A curved line formed by the intersection of the surface of a right cone and a plane. The conic sections are the parabola, ellipse, and hyperbola. The right lines and the circle which result from certain positions of the plane are sometimes, though not generally included.
That branch of geometry which treats of the parabola, ellipse, and hyperbola.
See Pendulum.
A method of delineating the surface of a sphere upon a plane surface as if projected upon the surface of a cone; -- much used by makers of maps in Europe.
A surface described by a right line moving along any curve and always passing through a fixed point that is not in the plane of that curve.

Having the form of a cone; circular at the base and tapering to a point; conical.
Specifically, in mathematics, of or pertaining to a cone: as, conic sections.
