CIRCLE
The item that I picked as one of the conic sections which is circle is a pomade container. This is one of the most important things in my bag for I can’t go out of the house without it. I have no doubt that circle have always been used for container. Like this in a pomade container, it is not that practical if the container is a rectangular shape or a square for it would not be used properly.
ELLIPSE
In this picture I picked a cover of a water container. Of course the cap should take the shape of the container so we can be able to use it right. It is not that right that the shape of the cover and the container is different. It is not that practical, for example if we used a circular shape cover to an oblong shape of a container, we can’t use it properly.
PARABOLA
In the picture you can see that I am holding a sculpture of a moon. I picked this item for since I was a baby my mom always put this beside me every time that I would take a nap or sleep. In this ornament the moon is in crescent form so it forms a parabola. Most of the times a crescent moon is always used on ornaments for it would look more real than the other shapes of the moon.
HYPERBOLA
As you can see from the picture I picked a Nescafe container. I picked this container for I really like drinking coffee. Like literally I drink coffee everyday. You can see from the picture that the sides of the container formed a parabola. I think that is is shaped like a conic section which is parabola for it would not easily slip from your hand. Imagine if this container is just a rectangular shape and it is a glass, I think that it would easily slip from your hand. On the other hand the design of this container might just wanted by the designer of the product.
