Why are circle and ellipse the same?
They are notnecessarily the same. A circle is a subcategory of an ellipse, meaning that every single circle is guaranteed to be an ellipse, but not all ellipses will be a circle. Just like a square will be a rectangle, but not all rectangles will be squares. A circle requires that the radius remains constant throughout the entire circle, whereas an ellipse does not require this. It just has an extra requirement that disqualifies some ellipses.
How is graphing a circle easier than ellipses?
Compasses make the job much easier!
Why eccentricty of circle is 0?
If you measure the distance from the centre of the circle to any point on the circle, it is always the same. eccentric figures such as ellipses and hyperbolas) do not have this property.The circle is not eccentric, so its eccentricity is 0. There is a formulation for this in analytic geometry . . .
What is the equation for the radius of a circle?
The radius of a circle = the diameter of the circle divided by 2
What are ellipses?
Ellipses are a scientific word for the shape of an oval. for example the planets orbits are ellipses.
Does the circle have irregular version?
Ellipses
Is every circle an ellipse?
Yes; the circle is a special case of an ellipse.
What forms are closely related to the circle?
Ellipses.

What is a ellipse drawing?
"Elliptical" means they look like ellipses.
What is a the eccentricity of a circle?
Eccentricity is only present in ovals and ellipses. A circle is present. The eccentricity of an oval or ellipse is how linear it is.
Earth's orbit is not a circle is it?
No, all orbits are ellipses. That includes the Earth's orbit.

What is A flattened circle that is the earths orbit?
All orbits are ellipses. You might describe an ellipse as a "flattened circle", but mathematically, a circle is a special version of an ellipse in which both foci are at the same spot.

Is there a shape made up of segments that is not a polygon?
A circle, semicircle, segments or sectors of circle, ellipse, segments or sectors of ellipses, cardiods, closed convex wriggly shapes.
The extent to which Mars' orbit differs from a perfect circle is called?
The extent to which Mars' orbit differs from a perfect circle is called eccentricity. It measures how elongated or stretched out the orbit is compared to a perfect circle.
