Source sentences:
text: Ellipse is a set of points where two focal points together are named as Foci and with the help of those points, Ellipse can be defined.
text: An ellipse requires more states to be described than a circle, because the former needs attributes to specify the length and rotation of the major and minor axes whereas a circle needs only a radius.
text: where is a characteristic of the ellipse known as the eccentricity, to be defined shortly.
text: This requires anticipation of the problem when Ellipse is defined.
text: An ellipse is defined as follows: For two given points, the foci, an ellipse is the locus of points such that the sum of the distance to each focus is constant.
text: An ellipse may also be defined analytically as the set of points for each of which the sum of its distances to two foci is a fixed number.
text: Likewise, an ellipse can be uniquely defined by giving the focus and its eccentricity.
text: Formally, an ellipse can be defined as follows:
text: An ellipse is a conic section that is described as:Figure 1 shows a picture of an ellipse:
