x2/a2+y2/b2 = 1
where –a ≤ x ≤ a.

An ellipse is the locus of all points on a plane with constant distances from two fixed points in the plane. The fixed points encircled by the curve are known as foci (singular focus). The constant ratio is the eccentricity of the ellipse and the fixed line is the directrix. In this article, we will learn about the ellipse in detail.
