By cutting the right circular conic by a plane we obtain different conic sections, as afunction of the inclination angle α of the plane relative to the base of the conic sectionand the angle β between the generators and the base.
The discovery of theConical Sections isattributed to the greekMenachmus who livedaround 350 B.C..

To find the properties of the ellipse let introduce two spheres, with centers on the coneaxis, inside the right circular cone, one the above the cutting plane and one bellow. The sphere are tangent to the rightcone surfaces, along one circle each(C1 for sphere 1 and C2 for sphere 2,with centers on cone axis and parallel to cone base), and tangent to cutting plane at the points F* (sphere 1) and F (sphere 2).
The center of the spheres are in the plane perpendicular to the cutting plane.They contain the cone axis, and are the intersection of this axis with theline bisecting one of the angles generated between the conegenerators and intersection of perpendicular and cutting planes.

Ellipse (Definition 2) Ellipse is a planar curve, such that the ratio of distances, from any point on the curve, to a fixed point F* (focus 1) and to the line directrix1 and ratio of distances to a second fixed point F and the second line directrix 2 (parallel to directrix1) are constant and equal to e < 1. The focci F* and F are between the two directrices, where F* is closer to directrix 1and F to directrix 2.
The proof given here was supplied in 1822 by the Belgian mathematicianGerminal P. Dandelin (1794-1847)

Let draw the cone generator CP (where C is the cone apex and P is any point on the Parabola).CP is tangent to the sphere at point Q (on circle C). Since PF is tangent to the sphere, and all tangents from the same pointare equal PF = PQ.
Let perform the following construction: The intersection between cutting plane and the plane containing circle C is called directrix.
The point M on directrix is on the normal from P on directrix (PM ┴ directrix). The distance from the point P to the plane containing circle C (that contains both Q and M) is given by coscossin PFPQPM

The center of the spheres are in the plane perpendicular to the cutting plane.They contain the cone axis, and are the intersection of this axis with theline bisecting one of the angles generated between the conegenerators and intersection of perpendicular and cutting planes.
