What does eccentricity means? But a ellipse is a word i dunno, all i know is the ecllispe the minty mint i eat every day.

∙ 6y agoThe eccentricity of an ellipse is less than one. It can get arbitrarily close to one (meaning there really is no maximum).

∙ 6y agoThere is no mathematical limit to eccentricity. In the solar system, many comets have very eccentric orbits.

It is called a circle.A circle is an ellipse with zero eccentricity.Incidentally, you probably meant "geometric figure".
No, the eccentricity of an ellipse tells us the shape of the ellipse, not its size. The size of an ellipse can be determined by its major and minor axes lengths, or by its area.
The eccentricity of that ellipse is 0.4 .
the minimum would be a zero. and a eccentricity of zero would be a circle because if it's a zero, you only have one point because there is no focal distance. if you have only one point to connect, it would be a circle. on the other hand, the maximum would be one; a line. because eccentricity is in a fraction/decimal form. the person before me wrote 7. that is not humanly possible, because that would mean a fraction like 700/100. and how can the focal distance be grater than the major axis?
Eccentricity is the measure of how much the conic section diverges into its circle form. One of the formulas for eccentricity is e=c/a this formula can be used to get the eccentricity of the ellipse.

An ellipse with less eccentricity will be closer in shape to a circle, so it will generally be smaller than an ellipse with more eccentricity which is more elongated. The size comparison also depends on the specific dimensions of the ellipses.

the eccentricity will increase.

Eccentricity is only present in ovals and ellipses. A circle is present. The eccentricity of an oval or ellipse is how linear it is.
As the eccentricity of a shape increases, the shape becomes more elongated or stretched out. For example, an ellipse with a higher eccentricity will look more like a stretched circle. In general, as eccentricity increases, the shape will deviate more from its original form and become more elongated.
If the eccentricity was 0 the ellipse would instead be a circle, and if the eccentricity was 1 it would be a straight line segment.
Then it will be a circle.
The answer will depend on what measure is required: length of a side, perimeter, radius or diameter (if circular), eccentricity (if an ellipse), area.The answer will depend on what measure is required: length of a side, perimeter, radius or diameter (if circular), eccentricity (if an ellipse), area.The answer will depend on what measure is required: length of a side, perimeter, radius or diameter (if circular), eccentricity (if an ellipse), area.The answer will depend on what measure is required: length of a side, perimeter, radius or diameter (if circular), eccentricity (if an ellipse), area.
