Cones. A cone is a solid with a circular base. It has a curved surface which tapers (i.e. decreases in size) to a vertex at the top. The height of the cone is the perpendicular distance from the base to the vertex. A right cone is a cone in which the vertex is vertically above the center of the base. When the vertex of a cone is not vertically above the center of the base, it is called an oblique cone. The following diagrams show a right cone and an oblique cone. In common usage, cones are assumed to be right and circular.
