The answer will depend on what measure is required: length of a side, perimeter, radius or diameter (if circular), eccentricity (if an ellipse), area.The answer will depend on what measure is required: length of a side, perimeter, radius or diameter (if circular), eccentricity (if an ellipse), area.The answer will depend on what measure is required: length of a side, perimeter, radius or diameter (if circular), eccentricity (if an ellipse), area.The answer will depend on what measure is required: length of a side, perimeter, radius or diameter (if circular), eccentricity (if an ellipse), area.
The ellipse will become more circular until it becomes a circle when the two foci coincide.
Assuming a circular cylinder:Cutting lengthwise, you get a rectangle.Cutting parallel to the circular bases, you get a circle. Cutting at an angle, you can get an ellipse - or a shape that has parts of an ellipse, as well as straight lines.

Earth's orbit (revolution) around the Sun is not circular - it's an ellipse. However, this ellipse is fairly close to a circle.

A sphere is three-dimensional whereas an ellipse is two-dimensional. An ellipse can have an oval shape but a cross section of a sphere is always circular.
The ellipse will become more circular until it becomes a circle when the two foci coincide.
Most orbits are elliptical; all NATURAL orbits are. There are two foci, or focuses, to an ellipse. The distance between the foci determines how eccentric, or non-circular, they are. If the two foci are in the same place, then the ellipse becomes a circle. So a circular orbit would have only one focus.

In a right circular cone the base is a circle and the sloped side is a sector of a circle. For a general cone, they are an ellipse and a sector of an ellipse.
No, the earth's motion is a periodic motion forming an ellipse.
As with all the planets, the orbit of Neptune is a nearly circular ellipse.
The orbits of planets are actually elliptical, not perfectly circular. An ellipse is a stretched-out circle. The shape of a planet's orbit can be described as an ellipse with the Sun at one of the two foci.
