OVAL
YES
NO!!! Circle ; from its centre the distance to the edge(circumference) is equal . Ellipse(Oval) ;from its centre the distance to its edge(circumference) can vary. Casually, you can think of an oval as a squashed circle. In the coordianet plane ; A circle has the Equation x^2 + y^2 = 1 An Oval has the Equations x^2/a^2 + y^2/b^2 = 1 The 'a' & 'b' represent the eccentricity of the oval (ellipse), and the lengths of the major and minor axes.
Orbits of planets are oval, or elliptical, because one point in the orbit where Earth is closest to the Sun, and another is farthest from the Sun. Therefore making it oval. Hope that makes sense.
Planets orbit the sun in the shape of an ellipse, which is an elongated circle similar to an oval. When it was first discovered that the Sun is the center of the solar system, it was thought that all the planets had a circular orbit, but the calculations didn't fit.
Oval circles in the solar system? Hm you may be talking about the oval lines that are shown in a simple edited solar system image. The oval like lines are the planets orbit trial in which they revolve around the sun.
YES
The sun's orbit is not a complete circle, it is an oval
An oval can be thought of as a 'squashed' circle. or The Earth orbits the Sun in an oval path, not a circular path.
A circle has the same diameter around its border, while an oval is longer than its width.
The Earth rotates in not a perfect circle around the sun but in a oval shape.
The Earth rotates in not a perfect circle around the sun but in a oval shape.
An oval path around the Sun is when instead of going in a circle around the Sun it goes in an oval course (like the shape of an egg). If you research the dwarf planet Pluto then you'll find it has an eliptical path around the Sun, this is the same as an oval path. Good luck and I hope this helps!!
It is either a circle or an oval.
in geometry how is a circle different from an oval?
A circle has a constant radius whereas an oval does not.
No. An oval is a streched out circle. A circle is not a regular shape.
