Answer:

Option C is correct.i.e., we get Parabola if a cone is cut parallel to its edge.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A Right Circular Cone

To find: Shape of of cross section when cone is cut by a plan parallel

             to edge of cone

Cone has an apex on top and circle in base so if it is cut parallel to its edge we get a shape which is curved or pointy on one end while on the other end  it is open due to circle.

Option A: Circle is closed from everywhere,

Thus it is not correct.

Option B: Ellipse is also not open from any end.

Thus, it is not correct.

Option C: Parabola is curved from one end and open from other end.

Thus this is correct.

Option D: We get parabola if cone is cur parallel to axis.

Thus it is also not correct.

Therefore, Option C is correct.i.e., we get Parabola if a cone is cut parallel to its edge.

is vector v with an initial point of (-5,22) and a terminal point of (20,60) equal to vector u with an intintal point of (50,120
marta [7]

Answer:

Yes, vectors u and v are equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to check whether vectors u and v are equal or not.

If the initial point is (x_1,y_1) and terminal point is (x_2,y_2), then the vector is

Vector=(x_2-x_1)i+(y_2-y_1)j

Vector v with an initial point of (-5,22) and a terminal point of (20,60).

\overrightarrow v=(20-(-5))i+(60-22)j

\overrightarrow v=25i+38j       ..... (1)

Vector u with an initial point of (50,120) and a terminal point of (75,158).

\overrightarrow u=(75-50)i+(158-120)j

\overrightarrow u=25i+38j         .... (2)

From (1) and (2) we get

\overrightarrow u=\overrightarrow v

Therefore, vectors u and v are equal.
