Alright, we're keeping this going. Sometimes there's more time between homework exercises than I'd like, but what can I say, "life is busy." I say that all the time - on to the exercises!
- The line that passes through the narrowest section of an ellipse is the "minor axis."
- The "minor axis" is perpendicular the the ellipses surface, splits it equally in half, and extends to the vanishing point.
- The more on edge we are seeing the ellipse the narrower it will be until it is only a line, and alternately, as we look directly at it its surface the closer and closer it will be to a circle.
There were another three homework exercises for this section. Tables of ellipses, ellipses in planes, & funnels.
My "50% rule" drawings.
Onwards we go!
