Algorithm[edit]

Ellipse centered at origin and not rotated[edit]

NOtation

the equation of a ellipse:

  • centered at the origin
  • with width = 2a and height = 2b

the parametric equation is:

So explicit equations :

The parameter t :

  • is called the eccentric anomaly in astronomy
  • is not the angle of with the x-axis
  • can be called internal angle of the ellipse

ellipse rotated and not moved[edit]

Rotation In two dimensions[edit]

A counterclockwise rotation of a vector through angle Template:Mvar. The vector is initially aligned with the Template:Mvar-axis.

In two dimensions, the standard rotation matrix has the following form:

.

This rotates column vectors by means of the following matrix multiplication,

.

Thus, the new coordinates (x′, y′) of a point (x, y) after rotation are

.

result[edit]

Center is in the origin ( not shifted or not moved) and rotated:

  • center is the origin z = (0, 0)
  • is the angle measured from x axis
  • The parameter t (called the eccentric anomaly in astronomy) is not the angle of with the x-axis
  • a,b are the semi-axis in the x and y directions




Here

  • is fixed ( constant value)
  • t is a parameter = independent variable used to parametrise the ellipse


So

intersection of 2 ellipses[edit]

Intersection = common points

not scaled[edit]

2 ellipses:

  • both are cetered at origin
  • first is not rotated, second is rotated (constant angle theta)
  • with the same the aspect ratio s (the ratio of the major axis to the minor axis)




Fix x, then find y:

scaled[edit]

Second is scaled by factor r[5]



where:

  • is the tilt angle

kissing ellipses



These animations are constructed by shrinking and rotating a sequence of concentric and similar ellipses,
so that each ellipse lies inside the previous ellipse and is tangent to it.

tangential concentric ellipse and insribed ellipses

Let’s say I have an ellipse with horizontal axis $a$ and vertical axis $b$, centered at $(0,0)$. 
I want to compute $a’$ and $b’$ of a smaller ellipse centered at $(0,0)$, 
with the axes rotated by some angle $t$, tangent to the bigger ellipse and $\frac{a’}{b’}=\frac{a}{b}$.




---------------------

The standard parametric equation is:

(x,y)->(a cos(t),b sin(t))


---------------------------

Rotation counterclockwise about the origin through an angle α carries 

(x, y) to (x cos α − ysin α, ycos α+x sin α)
