The ellipse is the most common conic curve frequently seen in everyday life because each circle appears elliptical when viewed obliquely. For example, the surface of water in a glass obtains an elliptical outline when the glass is tilted.The orbits of the earth's artificial satellites and the moon are elliptical as well as the paths of comets that permanently orbit the sun.A real-life example of a parabola is a baseball being hit into the air and following a parabolic path. The center of gravity of a jumping porpoise also describes a parabola.
