Class 12 Basic Mathematics Conic Section Guide and Solution

Conic sections are a fundamental topic in Class 12 Basic Mathematics, offering insights into the shapes and equations that arise when a plane intersects a double cone. This topic has wide-ranging applications in physics, engineering, astronomy, and geometry. To assist students in mastering this subject, we present the Class 12 Basic Mathematics Conic Section Guide and Solution.

This guide is based on the Class 12 Basic Mathematics textbook approved by the Curriculum Development Center of Nepal. It provides comprehensive explanations, step-by-step solutions, and practical examples to prepare students for NEB examinations and assignments.

Overview of Conic Sections

Conic sections include the following curves:

1. Circle: A set of points equidistant from a fixed point, the center.
2. Ellipse: The set of points where the sum of the distances from two fixed points (foci) is constant.
3. Parabola: The set of points equidistant from a fixed point (focus) and a fixed line (directrix).
4. Hyperbola: The set of points where the absolute difference of the distances from two fixed points (foci) is constant.

The guide dives into each conic section, explaining its standard equations, properties, and methods for deriving these equations.
