== Introduction ==
A conic is a second degree polynomial. When it is expanded, you get an equation of the form:
<math>Ax^2 + Bxy +Cy^2 + Dx + Ey + F = 0</math>. If the value of <math>B</math> is zero then the conic is not rotated and sits on the x- and y- axes. If <math>B</math> is non-zero, then the conic is rotated about the axes, with the rotation centred on the origin.
