Applications of the dissectible cone for teaching conic sections
Taking the cone apart in front of a class shows that a circle, an ellipse, a parabola and a hyperbola are all produced by cutting a cone with a plane at different angles, which helps students connect the shapes with their equations in coordinate geometry.
- Introducing conic sections in senior-school mathematics
- Showing the plane cuts that give a circle, ellipse, parabola and hyperbola
- Linking solid geometry models with the coordinate geometry of conics
- Mathematics laboratory and exhibition displays
