PPT-The Ellipse

Unit 4 Conics An ellipse is the set of all points in a plane whose distances from two fixed points in the plane the foci is constant Major Axis Minor Axis Focus 1 Focus 2 Point. Motions of the Planets. The ancient astronomers believed that the Universe was made up of spheres (orbs). The sphere that contained all of the objects seen in space was the Celestial Sphere. The sphere rotated around the earth making it appear as if all celestial objects were revolving around the earth. In this image you can see the stars and the Sun look as if they’re attached to the sphere Where is the person in the image trying to get to?. Write the standard form of the equation:. Then find the radius and the coordinates of the center.. Graph the equation. Lesson 10-3 Ellipses. Objective: . To use and determine the standard and general forms of the equation of an ellipse.

Properties of Circles . The circle is a frequently used component in pictures and graphs, a procedure for generating either full circles or circular arcs is included in most graphics packages.. A circle is defined as the set of points . Dr. Shildneck. Fall, 2014. The Ellipse. An ellipse is a locus of points such that the sum of the distances between two fixed points (called the foci) is always the same.. The axis that runs through the longer part of the ellipse is called the major axis. The points at the ends of the major axis are called the vertices.. Ye. Franz .  Alexander Van . Horenbeke. David .

Mathematicians have a habit of studying, just for the fun of it, things that seem utterly useless; then centuries later their studies turn out to have enormous scientific value.  There is no better example of this than the work done by the ancient Greeks on the curves known as the conics: the ellipse, the parabola, and the hyperbola. They were first studied by one of Plato's pupils. No important scientific applications were found for them until the 17th century, when . The Ellipse. Basic oval.

Speak up when you don’t understand.. An . ellipse. is the set of points in a plane for which the sum of the distances from two fixed points is a given constant. The two fixed points are the focal points of the ellipse; the line passing through the focal points is called the axis. The points of intersection of the axes and the ellipse are called the vertices..
