  2. Perimeter of an ellipse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perimeter_of_an_ellipse

    An ellipse has two axes and two foci Unlike most other elementary shapes, such as the circle and square , there is no algebraic equation to determine the perimeter of an ellipse . Throughout history, a large number of equations for approximations and estimates have been made for the perimeter of an ellipse.

  3. Help:Displaying a formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Displaying_a_formula

    This is not a problem with a block displayed formula, and also typically not with inline formulas that exceed the normal line height marginally (for example formulas with subscripts and superscripts). The use of LaTeX in a piped link or in a section heading does not appear in blue in the linked text or the table of content. Moreover, links to ...

    For the ellipse equation: Ax2 + Bxy + Cy2 + Dx + Ey + F = 0 . What are its a, b, c, e presented as A,B,C,D,E, &F? where is its center, and where is its foci? how much ...

  5. Elliptic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_equation

    An elliptic equation can mean: The equation of an ellipse; An elliptic curve, describing the relationships between invariants of an ellipse; A differential equation with an elliptic operator; An elliptic partial differential equation

  6. Principal axis theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principal_axis_theorem

    The equation is for an ellipse, since both eigenvalues are positive. (Otherwise, if one were positive and the other negative, it would be a hyperbola.) The principal axes are the lines spanned by the eigenvectors. The minimum and maximum distances to the origin can be read off the equation in diagonal form.

  7. Angular eccentricity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_eccentricity

    Angular eccentricity is one of many parameters which arise in the study of the ellipse or ellipsoid. It is denoted here by α (alpha). It is denoted here by α (alpha). It may be defined in terms of the eccentricity , e , or the aspect ratio, b/a (the ratio of the semi-minor axis and the semi-major axis ):

  8. Ellipsoidal coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsoidal_coordinates

    An alternative parametrization exists that closely follows the angular parametrization of spherical coordinates: [1] = ⁡ ⁡, = ⁡ ⁡, = ⁡. Here, > parametrizes the concentric ellipsoids around the origin and [,] and [,] are the usual polar and azimuthal angles of spherical coordinates, respectively.

  9. Elliptic curve point multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_curve_point...

    Given a curve, E, defined by some equation in a finite field (such as E: y 2 = x 3 + ax + b), point multiplication is defined as the repeated addition of a point along that curve. Denote as nP = P + P + P + … + P for some scalar (integer) n and a point P = ( x , y ) that lies on the curve, E .
