Define Ellipse
A curved line forming a closed loop, where the sum of the distances from two points (foci) to
every point on the line is constant.
An ellipse looks like a circle that has been squashed into
an oval.
Like a circle, an ellipse is a type of line.
Imagine a straight line segment that is bent
around until its ends join.
Then shape that loop until it is an ellipse - a sort of squashed circle
like the one above.
Things that are in the shape of an ellipse are said to be elliptical .
In mathematics, an ellipse (from Greek λλειψις elleipsis, a "falling short") is a plane curve thatἔ
results from the intersection of a cone by a plane in a way that produces a closed curve.
Circles are special cases of ellipses, obtained when the cutting plane is orthogonal to the
cone s axis.
An ellipse is also the locus of all points of the plane whose distances to two fixed
points add to the same constant.
Ellipses are closed curves and
