  2. Conical surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conical_surface

    If the directrix is a circle , and the apex is located on the circle's axis (the line that contains the center of and is perpendicular to its plane), one obtains the right circular conical surface or double cone. [2]

  3. Cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone

    The lateral surface area of a right circular cone is = where is the radius of the circle at the bottom of the cone and is the slant height of the cone. [4] The surface area of the bottom circle of a cone is the same as for any circle, . Thus, the total surface area of a right circular cone can be expressed as each of the following: Radius and ...

  4. Conic section - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conic_section

    A conic is the curve obtained as the intersection of a plane, called the cutting plane, with the surface of a double cone (a cone with two nappes).It is usually assumed that the cone is a right circular cone for the purpose of easy description, but this is not required; any double cone with some circular cross-section will suffice.

  5. Ruled surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruled_surface

    The generators of any ruled surface coalesce with one family of its asymptotic lines. For developable surfaces they also form one family of its lines of curvature. It can be shown that any developable surface is a cone, a cylinder, or a surface formed by all tangents of a space curve. [5] Developable connection of two ellipses and its development

  6. List of map projections - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_map_projections

    In normal aspect, conic (or conical) projections map meridians as straight lines, and parallels as arcs of circles. Pseudoconical In normal aspect, pseudoconical projections represent the central meridian as a straight line, other meridians as complex curves, and parallels as circular arcs. Azimuthal

  7. Surface (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_(mathematics)

    A circular cylinder (that is, the locus of a line crossing a circle and parallel to a given direction) is an algebraic surface and a differentiable surface. A circular cone (locus of a line crossing a circle, and passing through a fixed point, the apex, which is outside the plane of the circle) is an algebraic surface which is not a ...

  8. Conical spiral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conical_spiral

    Conical spiral with an archimedean spiral as floor projection Floor projection: Fermat's spiral Floor projection: logarithmic spiral Floor projection: hyperbolic spiral. In mathematics, a conical spiral, also known as a conical helix, [1] is a space curve on a right circular cone, whose floor projection is a plane spiral.
