How can you draw an ellipse by arc of circle method when major axis 120mm and minor axis 80mm?
Circular segment
What is the equation for the ellipse if the ellipse is centered at the origin and the length of its horizontal axis is 4 and lengeth of the vertical axis is 8?
Ellipse formula, centered at the origin, where the vertical axis is the major axis: x2/b2 + y2/a2 = 1, a > b Since the major axis is 8, then a = 4. Since the minor axis is 4, then b = 2. Thus, the equation of the ellipse is: x2/4 + y2/16 = 1.
Is it true that the foci of an ellipse lie on the major axis of the ellipse?
Yes.
Minor axis of the ellipse x power 2 a power 2 plus y power 2 b power 2 is equal to 1 a is greater than b is Answer is x is equal zero why?
The standard equation for an ellipse centered at the origin is [x2/a2] +[y2/b2] = 1If a > b then the major axis is horizontal. Where b > a then the major axis is vertical. Note : If a = b then the curve is a circle.When a > b then the minor axis is of length 2b (and the major axis is of length 2a).Hope this helps as it is not clear just what your question is.
In the standard equation for an ellipse a is half the length of the axis?
An ellipse is the set of each and every point in a place such that the sum of the distance from the foci is constant, Major Axis of the ellipse is the part from side to side the center of ellipse to the larger axis, or the length of that sector. The major diameter is the largest diameter of an ellipse. Below equation is the standard ellipse equation: X2/a + Y2/b = 1, (a > b > 0)
