For $A = \left(\begin{array}{ll} a & b \\ c & d \end{array}\right)$ in $\mathcal{M}_2(\mathbb{R})$, let $\mathcal{H}_A$ be the quadric with equation $\psi_A(x,y,z) = 0$ where $\psi_A(x,y,z)$ is the real part of the determinant of $\left(\begin{array}{cc} a-x-\mathrm{i}z & b-y \\ c+y & d-x-\mathrm{i}z \end{array}\right)$.
Specify the intersection of $\mathcal{H}_A$ with the plane with equation $z = 0$.
