pse; the second gives what is known as acircular-arc-ellipse and is only an approximation. io6 Analytical Geometry. First Method: Let O be the centre of the ellipse- AAthe major axis; BB the minor axis; BCB the minor circleand ADA the major circle. (Fig. 39a.) Take any num-ber of points on the… … Fig. 39a. intersect the ordinates will be points on the ellipse. Thepoints may be made as close together as desired by draw-ing a great number of radii. A smooth curve joining thesepoints will form the ellipse. Take the point S, its radius, OS,and its intersection with BCB, P. Draw PN. In the…
