- Ellipse - Wikipedia
In mathematics, an ellipse is a plane curve surrounding two focal points, such that for all points on the curve, the sum of both distances to the two focal points is a constant It generalizes a circle, which is the special type of ellipse in which the two focal points are the same

Here we shall aim at knowing the definition of an ellipse, the derivation of the equation of an ellipse, and the different standard forms of equations of the ellipse
- ELLIPSE Definition Meaning - Merriam-Webster
A closed curve consisting of points whose distances from each of two fixed points (foci) all add up to the same value is an ellipse The midpoint between the foci is the center One property of an ellipse is that the reflection off its boundary of a line from one focus will pass through the other
- Ellipse – Definition, Parts, Equation, and Diagrams
An ellipse is a closed curved plane formed by a point moving so that the sum of its distance from the two fixed or focal points is always constant It is formed around two focal points, and these points act as its collective center
- Ellipse | Definition, Properties Equations | Britannica
Ellipse, a closed curve, the intersection of a right circular cone (see cone) and a plane that is not parallel to the base, the axis, or an element of the cone
- Ellipse - Math is Fun
An ellipse usually looks like a squashed circle F is a focus, G is a focus, and together they are called foci (pronounced fo-sigh)
- Ellipse -- from Wolfram MathWorld
The ellipse is a conic section and a Lissajous curve An ellipse can be specified in the Wolfram Language using Circle [x, y, a, b] If the endpoints of a segment are moved along two intersecting lines, a fixed point on the segment (or on the line that prolongs it) describes an arc of an ellipse

So, what exactly is an ellipse? How do we define its equation mathematically? And what makes it different from a circle or a parabola? An ellipse is the set of all points in a plane such that the sum of their distances from two fixed points, called foci, is constant
