Definition of ellipse in English:

ellipse

noun ɪˈlɪpsəˈlɪps

A regular oval shape, traced by a point moving in a plane so that the sum of its distances from two other points (the foci) is constant, or resulting when a cone is cut by an oblique plane which does not intersect the base.
椭圆
Example sentencesExamples
- For example he shows how to deform a circle into an ellipse and proves other results on deforming conic sections.
- Additional liturgical areas are designed as concave spaces bulging the ellipse outwardly.
- Well, he discovered, in the elliptical function, that the Sun was located at one of the two foci of the relevant ellipse.
- Here we examine this in detail, first looking at the case of a circular toroid deformed into an ellipse.
- An ellipse has two foci, i.e. two centres, unlike the circle that has just one.
- The rate at which a planet sweeps out area within its orbital ellipse is constant.
- The direction in which it spins, and the size and shape of the ellipse, give me information about the strength and quality of the energy in that area.
- There are three non-degenerate conics: the ellipse, the parabola, and the hyperbola.
- The first law states that the orbit of a satellite is an ellipse, and that one of the foci of the ellipse must be located at the centre of the Earth.
- It was shaped a bit oblong, like an ellipse with a very large major axis, almost to the point of not being a cigar.
- Principal components of the matrix were calculated and used to orient the ellipse in the plane.
- To imagine their form, picture an ellipse levitating up from the floor, turning as it rises.
- An additional complication is that the Earth's orbit is not quite an exact circle, but an ellipse.
- Over the course of a year the changing position of the star traced out a small ellipse.
- He described the construction of an ellipse with a string fixed at the two foci.
- If the optical component to be machined is a mirror, and the object to be imaged with that mirror is located at a finite distance, the shape will be an ellipse.
- Then it is shown that the displacement vector lies in a plane, and if the base point is translated to the origin, the endpoint traces out an ellipse.
- But I could explain the discrepancy if the orbit were an ellipse rather than a circle.
- In contrast, an oval or an ellipse is longer than it is wide.
- The orbit of the Earth is an ellipse, not a circle, so different quarters of the orbit take different lengths of time to complete.
