Everything about Paraboloid

Quadric surface with one axis of symmetry and no center of symmetry

In geometry, a paraboloid is a quadric surface that has exactly one axis of symmetry and no center of symmetry. The term "paraboloid" is derived from parabola, which refers to a conic section that has a similar property of symmetry. Wikipedia →
