How many straight lines does a ellipse have?
None; an ellipse is a smooth curve, not a line.
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.
The length of the red line segment is 6 and the length of the blue line segment is 4 How long is the major axis of the ellipse?
10
Is an oval a graph of a function?
No, the graph of an oval/ellipse is not a function because it does not pass the vertical line test.
The length of the blue line segment is 6 and the length of the red line segment is 9 How long is the major axis of the ellipse?
4 not 9..... ANSWER FOR APEX 10 (:
What is a bisection point?
it is the point where something is "cut in half." So if we bisect a line, we cut it in half and the midpoint is the bisection point. That is just one example

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.
If a length of a line segment is 6 and another line segment is 8 how long is the major axis of the ellipse?
The answer will depend on what, if anything, the line segments have to do with the ellipse.
What is it call when a shape is cut in half and equally on both sides?
Bisection along a line of symmetry.
If a right angle is bisected what type of angles are formed-?
In geometry a bisection refers to a division into two equal parts, for instance a bisection of an angle will involve constructing a line.
How do you find the major axis in an ellipse?
The major axis is the line that joins the two foci (focuses) of the ellipse. If all you have is a picture of an ellipse and you don't know where the foci are, you can still find the major axis in a few seconds: It's the longest possible line that you can draw completely inside the ellipse, and it's the line straight across the ellipse between the two opposite "points of the egg".
Why does every line have at least one bisection point?
Every line segment has exactly one bisection point - not "at least one".A line segment has a length that is a finite real number, x, of some measurement units. Every real number can be divided by 2 to give another real number, y. Therefore y = x/2 or x = 2y.A point that is y units from one end of the line will also be x - y = 2y - y = y units from the other end. That is the point is the bisection point.
What does it mean to bisect an angle or a line segment?
∠PQR Where PQR form an angle and Q is the angle's vertex. The bisection is the line that goes between the lines QP and QR Bisection is a mathematical tool to find the root of intervals. Example: ∠PQR Form an angle of 75° A bisection would lead into two smaller angles which can be called ∠PQA and ∠RQA, both 37,5° And then you can do calculations on the smaller angles, depending on what root you are looking for.
What is a bisected angle?
In geometry a bisection refers to a division into two equal parts, for instance a bisection of an angle will involve constructing a line which divides the angle into two angles of equal size. A bisection of an angle on the plane ( i.e. a angle drawn on a 2 dimensional surface) can be performed using only a straight edge and a pair of compass.
What is the line that extends from one edge of an ellipse to the other passing through both foci of the ellipse?
The major axis.
What is a bisection?
A bisection is a division or the process of division into two parts, especially two equal parts.
