  2. Ellipse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipse

    The area formula is intuitive: start with a circle of radius (so its area is ) and stretch it by a factor / to make an ellipse. This scales the area by the same factor: π b 2 ( a / b ) = π a b . {\displaystyle \pi b^{2}(a/b)=\pi ab.} [ 18 ] However, using the same approach for the circumference would be fallacious – compare the integrals ...

  3. Perimeter of an ellipse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perimeter_of_an_ellipse

    An ellipse is defined by two axes: the major axis (the longest diameter, ) and the minor axis (the shortest diameter, ). The exact perimeter P {\displaystyle P} of an ellipse is given by the integral: [ 1 ]

    where L is the perimeter of the lemniscate of Bernoulli with focal distance c. V = 4 3 π r 3 {\displaystyle V={4 \over 3}\pi r^{3}} where V is the volume of a sphere and r is the radius.

  5. Semi-major and semi-minor axes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-major_and_semi-minor_axes

    In an ellipse, the semi-major axis is the geometric mean of the distance from the center to either focus and the distance from the center to either directrix. The semi-minor axis of an ellipse runs from the center of the ellipse (a point halfway between and on the line running between the foci) to the edge of the ellipse. The semi-minor axis is ...

  6. Conjugate diameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_diameters

    For an ellipse, two diameters are conjugate if and only if the tangent line to the ellipse at an endpoint of one diameter is parallel to the other diameter. Each pair of conjugate diameters of an ellipse has a corresponding tangent parallelogram, sometimes called a bounding parallelogram (skewed compared to a bounding rectangle).

  9. Perimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perimeter

    Perimeter is the distance around a two dimensional shape, a measurement of the distance around something; the length of the boundary. A perimeter is a closed path that encompasses, surrounds, or outlines either a two dimensional shape or a one-dimensional length. The perimeter of a circle or an ellipse is called its circumference.
