Introduction to Ellipse

In mathematics, an ellipse is a curve in a plane around two focal points, so that for each point on the curve, the sum of the distances to the two focal points is constant. Therefore, it is the generalization of a circle, which is a special type of ellipse with two focal points at the same position. The shape of an ellipse (how to "stretch") is represented by its eccentricity. For an ellipse, it can be from 0 (the limit case of a circle) to any number close to but less than 1.
An ellipse is a closed cone section: a plane curve intersected by a cone and a plane. The ellipse has many similarities with the other two forms of cone section: parabola and hyperbola, both of which are open and unbounded. The cross section of a cylinder is elliptical unless it is perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder.
An ellipse can also be defined as a group of points, so that the ratio of the distance between each point on the curve and the distance between a given point (called the focus) and the distance between the same point on the curve is a constant. This ratio is called elliptical Eccentricity
You can also define an ellipse in this way. An ellipse is a collection of points, and the sum of the distances between a point and its two focal points is a fixed number.
Ellipses are common in physics, astronomy and engineering.

Other definitions

According to an important property of an ellipse: the point on the ellipse is connected to the two ends of the ellipse's major axis (in fact, as long as it is diameter) Slope The product is a fixed value, and the fixed value is
The premise is that the major axis is parallel to the x-axis. If the long axis is parallel to the y-axis, such as the ellipse whose focus is on the y-axis, the slope product can be obtained as - a ²/b ²=1/(e ² - 1)>, and the following can be obtained:
stay Axis Inner, moving point(
)To two points(
)(
)The slope product of is equal to the constant m (- 1<m<0).
Note: Considering that the product is not constant when the slope does not exist
It cannot be obtained, that is, the definition is only an ellipse with four points removed.
Ellipses can also be regarded as circles that are compressed or stretched in a certain direction proportion The resulting graph.

Standard equation

Ellipse definition
In the plane rectangular coordinate system, the ellipse is described by the equation. The "standard" in the standard equation of the ellipse refers to the center at the origin, and the axis of symmetry is the coordinate axis.
There are two standard equations of ellipse, depending on the coordinate axis of focus:
1. When the focus is on the X axis, the standard equation is:
2. When the focus is on the Y axis, the standard equation is:
The sum of distances from any point on the ellipse to F1 and F2 is 2a, and the distance between F1 and F2 is 2c. In the formula, b ²=a ² - c ². B is for writing parameters that can be set easily.
Also: if the center is at the origin, but the focus position is not clear on the X or Y axis, the equation can be set as mx ²+ny ²=1 (m>0, n>0, m ≠ n). That is the unified form of the standard equation.
The area of the ellipse is π ab. The ellipse can be regarded as the stretching of a circle in a certain direction, and its parameter equation is: x=acos θ, y=bsin θ
Point and ellipse
The standard form of the ellipse at (x0, y0) point tangent That is: xx zero /a²+yy zero /b²=1。 Tangent to ellipse Slope Yes: - b ² x zero /a²y zero , which can be obtained through complex algebraic calculation. [3]

Parametric equation

x=acosθ , y=bsinθ。
When solving the maximum distance from a point on an ellipse to a fixed point or to a fixed straight line, the problem can be transformed into trigonometric function problem solving
X=a × cos β, y=b × sin β a is the major axis The long half b is half of the short axis

polar coordinates

(One focus is on Polar coordinate system Origin, the other is in the positive direction of θ=0)
(e is the eccentricity of the ellipse=c/a).

Tangent Normal

Theorem 1: Let F1 and F2 be two ellipses C focus P is any point on C. If straight line AB cuts ellipse C at point P, and A and B lie on both sides of P on the straight line, ∠ APF1=∠ BPF2. (That is to say, the tangent line of the ellipse at point P is the straight line where the external corner bisector of ∠ F1PF2 is located).
Theorem 2: Let F1 and F2 be the two focal points of ellipse C, and P be any point on C. If straight line AB is the normal of C at point P, AB bisects ∠ F1PF2.
The proofs of the above two theorems can be found in reference materials.
The tangent theorem of ellipse is proved by analytic geometry:
Solution: Let C: ((x ^ 2)/(a ^ 2))+((y ^ 2)/(b ^ 2))=1 ----- Formula 1;
(a^2)-(b^2)=(c^2);
F1(-c,0); F2(c,0); P(xp,yp)
AB:(y-yp)=k(x-xp)=>y=kx+(yp-kxp); Let m=yp kxp=>AB: y=kx+m ---- Formula 2;
When y is deleted from simultaneous formula 1 and formula 2, ((k ^ 2)+((b ^ 2)/(a ^ 2))) (x ^ 2)+2kmx+((m ^ 2) - (b ^ 2))=0;
Since straight line AB cuts ellipse C at point P, the above formula has only one solution, then:
4((km)^2)-4((k^2)+((b^2)/(a^2)))((m^2)-(b^2))=0=>m^2=((ak)^2)+(b^2);
m^2=(yp-kxp)^2=((yp)^2)+((kxp)^2)-2kxpyp=((ak)^2)+(b^2);
=>((a^2)-(xp^2))(k^2)+2xpypk+((b^2)-(yp^2));
According to the root discriminant, 4 ((xpyp) ^ 2) - 4 ((a ^ 2) - (xp ^ 2)) ((b ^ 2) - (yp ^ 2))=0;
So the value of k has a unique solution: k=(- 2xpyp)/(2 ((a ^ 2) - (xp ^ 2)))=- xpyp/((a ^ 2) - (xp ^ 2));
According to formula 1, (a ^ 2) - (xp ^ 2)=(ayp/b) ^ 2=>k=- (xp (b ^ 2))/(yp (a ^ 2));
m=yp-kxp=(((ypa)^2)+((xpb)^2))/(yp(a^2))=((ab)^2)/(yp(a^2))=(b^2)/yp;
Let A0F1 and B0F2 pass through F1 and F2 respectively and vertically AB to A0 and B0;
A0F1: (y-0)=(- 1/k) (x+c)=>x+ky+c=0 ---- Formula 3;
When y is deleted from simultaneous formula 2 and formula 3, x=- (km+c)/((k ^ 2)+1);
The simultaneous formula 2 and formula 3 subtract x to get: y=(m-kc)/((k ^ 2)+1);
Then: A0: (- (km+c)/((k ^ 2)+1), (m-kc)/((k ^ 2)+1));
|A0F1|^2=((m-kc)^2)/((k^2)+1));
Similarly: B0F2: (y-0)=(- 1/k) (x-c);
=>B0:((c-km)/((k^2)+1),(m+kc)/((k^2)+1));
|B0F2|^2=((m+kc)^2)/((k^2)+1));
|PF1|^2=((xp+c)^2)+(yp^2);
|PF2|^2=((xp-c)^2)+(yp^2);
It is proved that if ∠ APF1=∠ BPF2, the right triangle A0PF1 is similar to the right triangle B0PF2;
=>|A0F1|/|PF1|=|B0F2|/|PF2|
=>(|A0F1|^2)/(|PF1|^2)=(|B0F2|^2)/(|PF2|^2)
=>(|PF2|^2)/(|PF1|^2)=(|B0F2|^2)/(|A0F1|^2)
((m+kc)^2)/((m-kc)^2)=(((xp-c)^2)+(yp^2))/(((xp+c)^2)+(yp^2));----- Equation 4
m+kc=(b^2)/yp-(xpc(b^2))/(yp(a^2))=((a^2)-xpc)(b^2)/(yp(a^2));----- Equation 5
m-kc=(b^2)/yp+(xpc(b^2))/(yp(a^2))=((a^2)+xpc)(b^2)/(yp(a^2));---- Equation 6
Substitute Formula 5 and Formula 6 into Formula 4 to get:
(((a^2)-xpc)^2)/(((a^2)+xpc)^2)=(((xp-c)^2)+(yp^2))/(((xp+c)^2)+(yp^2));
=>(((a^2)-xpc)^2)(((xp+c)^2)+(yp^2))=(((a^2)+xpc)^2)(((xp-c)^2)+(yp^2))
=>(((a^2)-xpc)^2)((xp+c)^2)+(((a^2)-xpc)^2)(yp^2)=(((a^2)+xpc)^2)((xp-c)^2)+(((a^2)+xpc)^2)(yp^2)
=>[(((a^2)-xpc)^2)((xp+c)^2)-(((a^2)+xpc)^2)((xp-c)^2)]=[(((a^2)+xpc)^2)-(((a^2)-xpc)^2)](yp^2)
=>[((a^2)-xpc)(xp+c)+((a^2)+xpc)(xp-c)][((a^2)-xpc)(xp+c)-((a^2)+xpc)(xp-c)]=4xpc(ayp)^2
=>(2(a^2)xp-2(c^2)xp)(2c(a^2)-2c(xp^2))=4xpc(ayp)^2
=>4xpc(b^2)((a^2)-(xp^2))=4xpc(ayp)^2
=>(b^2)((a^2)-(xp^2))=(ayp)^2
=>(ab)^2=((ayp)^2)+((bxp)^2)
=>The equation ((xp ^ 2)/(a ^ 2))+((yp ^ 2)/(b ^ 2))=1 is established, ∠ APF1=∠ BPF2 is proved.

Relationship between ellipse and trigonometric function
The proof that the perimeter of an ellipse is equal to the length of a specific sine curve in a period:
The cylinder with radius r intersects with an inclined plane to obtain an ellipse. The angle between the inclined plane and the horizontal plane is α, and a circle passing through the short diameter of the ellipse is intercepted. Turn a θ angle starting from a certain intersection point of the circle and ellipse. Then the height of the point on the ellipse and the point perpendicular to the circle can get f (c)=r tan α sin (c/r).
r: Cylinder radius;
α: The angle between the ellipse and the horizontal plane;
c: Corresponding arc length (moving from a certain intersection point to a certain direction);
The above is to prove the simple process, then the circumference of the ellipse (x * cos α) ^ 2+y ^ 2=r ^ 2 is equal to the length of the sine curve of f (c)=r tan α sin (c/r) in a period, and a period T=2 π r, which is exactly the circumference of a circle.

Eccentricity

Eccentricity of ellipse Is defined as the ratio of the focal length on the ellipse to the major axis, (range: 0<X<1).
E=c/a (0<e<1), because 2a>2c. The greater the eccentricity, the flatter the ellipse; The smaller the eccentricity, the closer the ellipse is to the circle.
Elliptical Focal length : elliptical focus The distance from its corresponding guide line (such as focus (c, 0) and guide line x=± a ^ 2/c) is a ^ 2/c-c=b ^ 2/c
Eccentricity vs
Relationship of:

Focal radius

The focus is on the x-axis: | PF1 |=a+ex | PF2 |=a-ex (F1 and F2 are the left and right focus respectively).
The ellipse passes the right focus radius r=a-ex。
The radius passing through the left focus r=a+ex.
The focus is on the y-axis: | PF1 |=a+ey | PF2 |=a-ey (F2 and F1 are the upper and lower focus respectively).
Elliptical Drift diameter : the distance between the line perpendicular to the x-axis (or y-axis) passing through the focus and the intersection points A and B of the ellipse, that is, | AB |=2 * b ^ 2/a. [1]

Squeeze two hemispheres with the same radius as the cylinder from both ends of the cylinder to the middle. When they touch the section, they stop. Then two common points will be obtained. Obviously, they are the tangent points of the section and the ball.
Set two points as F1 and F2
For any point P on the section, make a cylinder through P a bus or bus bar Q1、Q2, The big circle tangent to the ball and cylinder intersects Q1 and Q2 respectively
Then PF1=PQ1, PF2=PQ2, so PF1+PF2=Q1Q2
From definition 1, it is known that the section is an ellipse with F1 and F2 as the focus
Given the size of major axis and minor axis, the drawing method of two focal length ruler and gauge
In the same way, it can also be proved that the oblique section of the cone (not passing through the bottom) is an ellipse
For example, the eccentricity of known ellipse C: x ^ 2/a ^ 2+y ^ 2/b ^ 2=1 (a>b>0) is √ 6/3, and the distance from one endpoint of the minor axis to the right focus is √ 3
1. Find the equation of ellipse C
2. The straight line l: y=x+1 intersects the ellipse at two points A and B, and P is a point on the ellipse. Find the maximum value of △ PAB area
3. Calculate the area of △ AOB on the basis of ⑵
I Analysis of minor axis Endpoint To the left and right focus The sum of distances is 2a, and the distance from the end point to the left and right focus is equal (the definition of ellipse). It can be seen that a=√ 3, and c/a=√ 6/3. Substituting it, we can get c=√ 2, b=√ (a ^ 2-c ^ 2)=1, and the equation is x ^ 2/3+y ^ 2/1=1,
II Requirements the measure of area Obviously, with ab as the bottom edge of the triangle, the simultaneous solution of x ^ 2/3+y ^ 2/1=1, y=x+1 yields x1=0, y1=1, x2=- 1.5, y2=- 0.5. Using the chord length formula, there is √ (1+k ^ 2)) [x2-x1] (the square brackets represent the absolute value), chord length=3 √ 2/2. For the largest area of point p, its distance to the chord should be the largest, assuming that the maximum distance from p to the chord has been found, and the chord is made through p Parallel line It can be found that the tangent line of the parallel line is the tangent line of the ellipse, so the tangent line and chord are parallel, so the slope and chord slope=, let y=x+m, and use the discriminant equal to 0 to find m=2, - 2. Combined with the graph, m=- 2. x=1.5, y=- 0.5, p (1.5, - 0.5),
Three straight line equation x-y+1=0, use the distance formula from point to straight line to get √ 2/2, area 1/2 * √ 2/2 * 3 √ 2/2=3/4, [2]

Hand Drawing Method I

(1) : Draw the long axis AB, the short axis CD, AB and CD are mutually perpendicular and evenly divided at point O.
(2) : Connect AC.
(3) : With O as the center and OA as the radius, make an arc to intersect OC extension line at point E.
(4) : Take C as center of a circle CE is the radius arc Intersect with AC at point F.
(5) : Make the vertical bisector of AF intersect the CD extension line at point G, and intersect AB at point H.
(6) : Intercept H, G for the symmetric points H ', G' of point O (7): H, H 'is the center of the long axis circle, and HA, H' B are the radii for making circles respectively; G. G 'is the center of the short axis circle, and GC and G' D are used as the radii to make circles.
The method of drawing ellipses with a line or thin copper wire, pencil, two thumbnails or pins: first draw the cross lines of the long and short axes, first find two points on the long axis with the dot as the center that are larger than the radius of the short axis, first fix one point with a line tied by a thumbnail or pin, and then do not fix the line of the other point. Use a pen to hold the line to find the four vertices of the long and short axes. This step requires multiple positioning, Fix the two points until they are just able to coincide with the vertex. Use a pen to lead the line and draw an ellipse directly:) It is best to use thin copper wire because the line elastic Larger drawings may not be accurate.

Hand Drawing Method II

Elliptical focal length │ FF '│ (Z) defines that the major axis X (ab) and the minor axis Y (cd) formed by a known ellipse draw an arc with one end of the major axis A as the center of the circle and the minor axis Y as the radius, and the line segment tangent to the arc drawn from the other segment of point B of the major axis is the focal length of the ellipse. The proof formula is 2 √ {(Z/2) ^ 2+(Y/2) ^ 2}+Z=X+Z (in the plane and two fixed points F The locus of the moving point P whose sum of the distances of F 'is equal to the constant 2a (2a>| FF' |) is called an ellipse), which can evolve into z=√ x ^ 2-y ^ 2 (x>y>0). Points F and F 'at both ends of Z are fixed points. Take the line with toughness and the smaller the expansion coefficient, the better. The length of any group of surrounding line segments AF 'or FB is taken as the fixed triangle Perimeter The ellipse is formed by taking F, F 'as fixed points and taking the third point on the triangle as the moving point to draw an arc.

Loop length
According to the graphic characteristics of the ellipse, a circular line is used to represent the distance relationship between the moving point and the focus, forming a unified circular line drawing method. Introduction to specific methods:
(1) The drawing tools are pen, pin, ruler and circular line. (Manufacturing of ring wire: take a length (30-50cm) of flexible wire with moderate thickness and small elasticity, a length of 8mm thin wire hollow plastic pipe, the flexible wire runs through the plastic pipe, and the plastic pipe clamps the flexible wire, but can be twitched by force to form a ring wire that can shrink and lengthen).
(2) Make fixed points and moving points of various circles on the drawing plane.
(3) Erect and fix the pins on the fixed points respectively;
(4) Put the matching circular line outside the pin, straighten the circular line from inside to outside, and adjust the length of the circular line so that the pen tip just falls on the moving point;
(5) Move the brush one week to make various round shapes.
The biggest feature of the loop drawing method is that the distance relationship between the moving point of a circle and the focus is linked in a loop way, and is not affected by the number of focus points. Any number of focus points can be accommodated in the loop. To explore the number of three or more focus points Multifocal circle Provide effective methods. The circle drawing method belongs to the continuous moving drawing method, which is suitable for circles, ellipses and Oval Etc.
If this method is used to draw an ellipse specifying semi major axis a and semi minor axis b, then
