- Cone - n. - A solid of the form described by the revolution of a right-angled triangle about one of the sides adjacent to the right angle; -- called also a right cone. More generally, any solid having a vertical point and bounded by a surface which is described by a straight line always passing through that vertical point; a solid having a circle for its base and tapering to a point or vertex.
- Cone - n. - Anything shaped more or less like a mathematical cone; as, a volcanic cone, a collection of scoriae around the crater of a volcano, usually heaped up in a conical form.
- Cone - n. - The fruit or strobile of the Coniferae, as of the pine, fir, cedar, and cypress. It is composed of woody scales, each one of which has one or two seeds at its base.
- Cone - n. - A shell of the genus Conus, having a conical form.
- Cone - v. t. - To render cone-shaped; to bevel like the circular segment of a cone; as, to cone the tires of car wheels.
- Cone pulley - - A pulley for driving machines, etc., having two or more parts or steps of different diameters; a pulley having a conical shape.
- Cone-in-cone - a. - Consisting of a series of parallel cones, each made up of many concentric cones closely packed together; -- said of a kind of structure sometimes observed in sedimentary rocks.
- Coneine - n. - See Conine.
- Conepate - n. - Alt. of Conepatl

- Fusee - n. - The cone or conical wheel of a watch or clock, designed to equalize the power of the mainspring by having the chain from the barrel which contains the spring wind in a spiral groove on the surface of the cone in such a manner that the diameter of the cone at the point where the chain acts may correspond with the degree of tension of the spring.
- Step - v. i. - One of a series of offsets, or parts, resembling the steps of stairs, as one of the series of parts of a cone pulley on which the belt runs.
- Trou-de-loup - n. - A pit in the form of an inverted cone or pyramid, constructed as an obstacle to the approach of an enemy, and having a pointed stake in the middle. The pits are called also trapholes.

- Extinguisher - n. - One who, or that which, extinguishes; esp., a hollow cone or other device for extinguishing a flame, as of a torch or candle.
- Suppository - n. - A pill or bolus for introduction into the rectum; esp., a cylinder or cone of medicated cacao butter.
- Ellipse - n. - An oval or oblong figure, bounded by a regular curve, which corresponds to an oblique projection of a circle, or an oblique section of a cone through its opposite sides. The greatest diameter of the ellipse is the major axis, and the least diameter is the minor axis. See Conic section, under Conic, and cf. Focus.
- Lift - n. - One of the steps of a cone pulley.
- Titler - n. - A large truncated cone of refined sugar.
- Pineapple - n. - A tropical plant (Ananassa sativa); also, its fruit; -- so called from the resemblance of the latter, in shape and external appearance, to the cone of the pine tree. Its origin is unknown, though conjectured to be American.

- Subcontrary - a. - Having, or being in, a contrary order; -- said of a section of an oblique cone having a circular base made by a plane not parallel to the base, but so inclined to the axis that the section is a circle; applied also to two similar triangles when so placed as to have a common angle at the vertex, the opposite sides not being parallel.
- Witch - n. - A cone of paper which is placed in a vessel of lard or other fat, and used as a taper.
- Conics - n. - That branch of geometry which treats of the cone and the curves which arise from its sections.
- Thimble - n. - A tubular cone for expanding a flue; -- called ferrule in England.
- Parabola - n. - A kind of curve; one of the conic sections formed by the intersection of the surface of a cone with a plane parallel to one of its sides. It is a curve, any point of which is equally distant from a fixed point, called the focus, and a fixed straight line, called the directrix. See Focus.
- Spheroconic - n. - A nonplane curve formed by the intersection of the surface of an oblique cone with the surface of a sphere whose center is at the vertex of the cone.
- Crater - n. - The basinlike opening or mouth of a volcano, through which the chief eruption comes; similarly, the mouth of a geyser, about which a cone of silica is often built up.

- Cone - v. t. - To render cone-shaped; to bevel like the circular segment of a cone; as, to cone the tires of car wheels.
- Ganoidei - n. pl. - One of the subclasses of fishes. They have an arterial cone and bulb, spiral intestinal valve, and the optic nerves united by a chiasma. Many of the species are covered with bony plates, or with ganoid scales; others have cycloid scales.
