    The document defines and provides key details about circles, parabolas, hyperbolas, and ellipses. [1] A circle is defined as a set of coplanar points equidistant from a central point called the center, with the constant distance being the radius. A parabola is defined as points equidistant from a fixed line called the directrix and a fixed point called the focus. [2] A hyperbola consists of two unbounded branches that are images of each other, with points having a constant sum of distances from two fixed points called foci. An ellipse consists of points where the sum of distances from two fixed foci is constant. [3
