What are some real life examples of parabolas hyperbolas and ellipses?
some examples of a parabola are: bridges, McDonald's arches, skateboard ramps, satellite dish, smiles ... and some more
What is a one-dimensional figure?
A point has no dimensions.A line, ray or segment is one dimensional.Squares, circles, rectangles, ellipses, parabolas, etc. have two dimensions.Cubes, spheres, cylinders, polyhedrons, etc. have three dimensions.
Are all ellipses circles?
Ellipses are not circles.
How are parabolas used in real life?
Parabolas are used in real life in light reflectors on cars to create a concentrated beam of intense light. Braking distance and stopping distance are quadratic formulas so their graphs are parabolas. A ball in motion in space has a path of a parabola.
When are two ellipses similar?
Never
How are circles ellipses hyperbolas and parabolas used in real life?
--actually they are used in real life. parabolas are seen in "parabolic microphones" or satellites. and there are others for both ellipses and hyperbolas.
The allowed shapes for orbits under the force of gravity are?
ellipses, parabolas, or hyperbolas. :)
What are the Types of conic sections?
The types of conic sections are circles, parabolas, hyperbolas, and ellipses.
Why are circles ellipse parabolas and hyperbolas called conic sections?
Circles, parabolas, ellipses,and hyperbolas are called conic sections because you can get those shapes by placing two cones - one on top of the other - with only the tip touching, and then you cut those cones by a plane. When you move that plane around you get different shapes. If you want to see an illustration of these properties, click on the link below on the related links section.

Which Conic sections describes a closed curve?
Circles, parabolas, ellipses, and hyperbolas are all conic sections. Out of these conic sections, the circle and ellipse are the ones which define a closed curve.
What is the difference between linear and non linear graphs?
Linear graphs make straight lines. Non-linear graphs make thins like parabolas, hyperbolas, and ellipses.
What are the four kinds of parabolas?
Conic Sections are figures that can be formed by slicing a three dimensional right circular cone with a plane. There are different ways to do this, and each way yields a different figure. These figures can be represented on the graph as well as algebraically. The four conic sections are circles, ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas.
What is the difference between a linear graph and a non linear graph?
Linear graphs make straight lines. Non-linear graphs make thins like parabolas, hyperbolas, and ellipses
How are ellipses used in real life?
Parabolas are used in satalights and flash lights and archiceture and maths, whoever wrote eggs is very wrong parabolas ends never meet * * * * * All very true. The only problem is that a parabola is not an ellipse! One of the main uses for an ellipse is to describe planetary orbits.

What are conics in mathematics?
Maybe you mean connics? Conics are shape of graphs. They get their name because they are all parts of a cone sliced in different directions. Some examples are lines, parabolas, hyperbolas, circles, ellipses, points...
