What happens to the shape of an ellipse as the foci are moved closer together?

As the foci of an ellipse move closer together, the ellipse becomes more circular in shape. When the foci coincide, the shape is a circle. Note that circles are a subset of ellipses.

How do you find coordinates of each given point after it is moved pie divided by four units to the right?
The point (x, y) is moved to (x+pi/4, y).
In an experiment a snail was observed to have moved a distance of 0.5 meters in 2 hours. What rate of movement was observed in this experiment?
In one hour the snail moved 0.25, therefore the speed was 0.25 per hour

What is the difference between circle and ellipse?
The simple answer is that an ellipse is a squashed circle.A more precise answer is that an ellipse is the locus (a collection) of points such that the sum of their distances from two fixed points (called foci) remains a constant. A circle is the locus of points that are all the same distance from a fixed point. If the two foci are moved closer together, the ellipse becomes more and more like a circle and finally, when they coincide, the ellipse becomes a circle. So, a circle is a special case of an ellipse.
What is the difference between a circle and a ellipse?
Basically a circle has a constant radius throughout and an ellipse does not.a circle has a constant radiusan ellipse has two foci. they are at either end of the ellipse
