The angle between the generator and the central axis of a double-napped cone is 50 degrees Which conic section is formed when a plane intersects the central axis at 50 degrees ?

The generator makes a 50° angle with the cone’s central axis, and the plane also makes a 50° angle with the axis. Therefore, the plane is parallel to a generator of the cone. A plane parallel to a generator forms a parabola.
