Intersection of a Plane and a Cone

This GeoGebra applet demonstrates the conic sections formed by the intersection of a plane and a cone. By constructing a cone, points, vectors, and orthogonal planes, it dynamically visualizes the resulting cross-sections such as ellipses, parabolas, or hyperbolas depending on the angle of the intersecting plane, aiding in the intuitive understanding of conic sections in solid geometry.
