GENERAL EQUATION
 an
ellipse is formed when the general
equation becomes

Ax + By + Cx + Dy + E =

d d
ELLIPSE
 is
the set of all points on the plane
such that the sum of the distances
from two fixed points is constant

d d
PARTS

d d
CENTER
 is the midpoint of the major axis

d d
MAJOR AXIS
 is
the segment that passes through
the foci and its endpoints lie on
the ellipse

d d
MINOR AXIS
 is
the segment perpendicular to
the major axis and its endpoints
are known as the co-vertices

d d
VERTICES
 are the endpoints of the major axis

d d
CO-VERTICES
 are the endpoints of the minor axis

d d
FOCAL DISTANCE
 is
the distance from the center to
a focus, denoted as c , where

c= a − b
d d
FOCUS
 is the fixed point of the ellipse
 plural form is foci
 there are two foci in an ellipse
