Ellipse #5

© Copyright 2000, Jim Loy

This is a fifth way to draw an ellipse (similar to the fourth way). It is the path of the midpoint on a fixed-length line segment that has one endpoint on each of two intersecting lines.

Please enable Java for an interactive construction (with Cinderella).

The above Java animation was created with Cinderella (a geometry program).
