Category:Shed with conic dormer (image set)

This category is an image set. It should contain only images that have the same style, and should have a parent category that is purely topical.

The outline of the domer consists mainly of the hyperbola (roof) and the ellipse (window). But a small part is also the surface of the cone.

In the front view the cone surface part of the outline is very small.

construction and calculations
house and cone with some coordinates	Finding a focus of the ellipse (above) and the hyperbola (below) using Dandelin spheres. The center of each circle is found using the angle bisector of plane and cone surface.

small but weird problem
There is a small mismatch between the CSG ellipse, and the curve based on calculations. This seems too small for a mathematical mistake, but too big for a rounding error. In the POV-Ray source the problem is fixed by adding the gap to the minor radius: `#declare Minor = Minor + .037;`
