A Brief Catalogue of the Quadric Surfaces The curves in the xy-plane defined by equations in x and y of the second degree are the conic sections:circle,ellipse,parabola,hyperbola. The surfaces in three-dimensional space defined by equations in x,y,z of the second degree, (*) Ax2+By2+C22+Dxy+Exz+Fyz++y++K=0 are called the quadric surfaces. Equation (*contains terms in xy,xz,yz.These terms can be eliminated by a suitable change of coordinates.Thus,for our purposes,the quadric surfaces are given by equations of the form Ax2+By2+C2+Dx+Ey+F+H=0 with 4,B,C not all zero.(If A,B,C are all zero,we don't have an equation of the second degree.)

Equation (∗) contains terms in xy, xz, yz. These terms can be eliminated by a suitable change of coordinates. Thus, for our purposes, the quadric surfaces are given by equations of the form Ax2 + By2 + Cz2 + Dx + Ey + Fz + H = 0 with A, B,C not all zero.
