Conic sections are the shape of the lines formed on a plane when that plane intersects two cones (vertex to vertex). Four different conic sections can be formed from this: circles, parabolas, ellipses, and hyperbolas. ... See the "applications" page for some real life applications of conics in astronomy ;

Historically, perhaps the first curve to be "discovered" was the circle, one of four curves called The Conic Sections, or just The Conics. The Conics are four curves: circle, ellipse, parabola and hyperbola, shown below.
