OBJECTIVES:
At the end of the lesson, the
students should be able to:
a. define an ellipse; and
b. determine the standard form of
equation of an ellipse.
Introduction of Ellipse

If you intersect a cone An ellipse is defined


with a plane at a slight as the set of all points
angle to the base, you whose total distance
get an ellipse. from two fixed points
(the foci) is always the
same.

The orbits of planets, comets, and meteors are in the


shape of ellipses.
The Ellipse
Ellipse – a set of points in a plane whose sum of the distances
from two fixed points is a constant.

The Ellipse

Major axis – the line that contains the foci and goes through the center
of the ellipse.

Foci

Minor axis – the line


that is perpendicular to
the major axis and goes
through the center of
the ellipse.
