Answer:

An ellipse

Step-by-step explanation:

Take a cone and make a diagonal cut through it, removing a very thin slice.  The result is an ellipse.  

 

a      /\

     /    \

   /        \   b      

 /            \    

Make a straight line from a to b, it will make an elliptical shape.  If we cut perfectly horizontally, we would get a circle, when we angle the cut of our cross section, the shape gets more and more elliptical depending on the angle of the cut

How do you find the slope of a line perpendicular to a given line?
enyata [817]
You have a line:
y=mx+b  (slope-intercepted form)
m=slope of this line.

The slope of a line perpendicular to that given line will be: ´"m´"
m´=-1/m.

For example:
y=8x+3
m=8

The solpe fo a line perpendicular to "y=8x+3" is:
m`=-1/8
