Sector[Conic, Point A, Point B]: Yields a conic sector between two points A and B on the conic section.; Note: This works only for a circle or ellipse.

Sector[Conic, Number t1, Number t2]

Yields a conic sector between two parameter values t1 and t2 on the conic section.

Note: Internally the following parametric forms are used:

Circle: (r cos(t), r sin(t)) where r is the circle's radius.
Ellipse: (a cos(t), b sin(t)) where a and b are the lengths of the semimajor and semiminor axes.
