AN INTRODUCTION TO CONIC SECTIONS There exists a certain group of curves called Conic Sections that are conceptually kin in several astonishing ways. Each member of this group has a certain shape‚ and can be classified appropriately: as either a circle‚ an ellipse‚ a parabola‚ or a hyperbola.

Frontal planes‚ like sagittal planes‚ lie vertically. Frontal planes‚ however‚ divide the body into anterior and posterior parts. A frontal plane is also called a coronal plane. 3.
