Feb 10, 2017 · If you make a plot of a conic section based on the eccentricity, it doesn't change at all. Plot it on desmos graphing calculator using the formula r=$\frac{d}{1-dcos(\theta)}$ where d is the eccentricity (polar coordinates). Nothing happens if …
How does the eccentricity of a conic section define its shape?
Jan 14, 2015 · The eccentricity of a conic can be defined as the distance between the foci divided by the distance between the points of intersection of the conic with its major axis (its ends). In a circle, the foci are coincident at the center of the circle. Thus, $\epsilon=0$.
How is the eccentricity of a circle equal to zero?
Dec 15, 2018 · $\begingroup$ See also this answer, which demonstrates that the eccentricity is also equal to $\sin\angle S/\sin\angle Q$, where $\angle S$ is the angle of inclination of the plane that cuts a cone to make a conic section, and $\angle Q$ gives the steepness of the cone itself. Since a circle is cut by a "horizontal" plane, $\sin\angle S = 0$.
