PARABOLA
A parabola is a set of all coplanar points that are
equidistant from a fixed and a point not on the
fixed line. Ellipses
-The fixed line is called directrix. An ellipse is a set of all coplanar points such

-The line perpendicular to the directrix and points is constant.
passing through the focus is called axis of
symmetry. Foci – the fixed points of ellipse.
-The chord that passes through the focus and Major axis – the longer axis.
perpendicular to the axis of symmetry is called
latus rectum. Minor axis – the shortest axis.
