Does the foci of an ellipse lie on the major axis of the ellipse?
yes
How many lines of symmetry does an ellipse have?
An ellipse has two lines of mirror symmetry: the line that includes the two foci of the ellipse and the perpendicular bisector of the segment of that line between the two foci.
What do you call a deformed circle?
A randomly deformed circle has no specific name. A circle can be deformed into an ellipse (also known as an oval). An ellipse has two distinct "centres", called foci. The shape consists of the locus of points such that the sum of the distance from these points to the two foci is a constant.
What is the equation of an ellipse with vertices 2 0 2 4 and foci 2 1 2 3?
Vertices and the foci lie on the line x =2 Major axis is parellel to the y-axis b > a Center of the ellipse is the midpoint (h,k) of the vertices (2,2) Equation of the ellipse is (x - (2) )^2 / a^2 + (y - (2) )^2 / b^2 Equation of the ellipse is (x-2)^2 / a^2 + (y-2)^2 / b^2 The distance between the center and one of the vertices is b The distance between(2,2) and (2,4) is 2, so b = 2 The distance between the center and one of the foci is c The distance between(2,2) and (2,1) is 1, so c = 1 Now that we know b and c, we can find a^2 c^2=b^2-a^2 (1)^2=(2)^2-a^2 a^2 = 3 The equation of the ellipse is Equation of the ellipse is (x-2)^2 / 3 + (y-2)^2 / 4 =1
Find an equation for the hyperbola with foci and asymptotes?
find the constant difference for a hyperbola with foci f1 (5,0) and f2(5,0) and the point on the hyperbola (1,0).
Can the foci of an ellipse can be outside the ellipse?
No. Both foci are always inside the ellipse, otherwise you don't have an ellipse.
Can the foci of an ellipse be outside of the ellipse?
No. Both foci are always inside the ellipse, otherwise you don't have an ellipse.
CanThe foci of an ellipse can be outside the ellipse?
No. Both foci are always inside the ellipse, otherwise you don't have an ellipse.
Is the foci of an ellipse always lie inside the ellipse?
Yes.
The foci of an ellipse will always lie inside the ellipse?
true
How many foci are at the center of an ellipse?
An ellipse has 2 foci. They are inside the ellipse, but they can't be said to be at the centre, as an ellipse doesn't have one.
What are the difference between circle and ellipse between circle and ellipse?
An ellipse is a shape on which the sum of the distances from every point to two points inside called the foci (focuses) is always the same number. A circle is an ellipse with both foci (focuses) at the same point.
What is the shape of the ellipse that both foci in the same place?
Both foci of any ellipse are always in the same plane.If they're both at the same point, then the ellipse is a circle.
Can the foci of an ellipse be on the outside of a ellipse?
No.
Can the foci of the ellipse be outside of the ellipse?
No.
Can the foci's of and ellipse be outside the ellipse?
No.
What shape has two foci's?
An ellipse, a hyperbola.
