Which of the following is NOT a conic section?
Answer: C
Correct answer: a cycloid
A conic section is a curve obtained by cutting a cone with a plane, which gives the circle, ellipse, parabola and hyperbola and nothing else. A cycloid is a roulette, traced by a point on a rolling circle, and no plane section of a cone will produce one.
