Solution

The circles are ellipse are the types of conic sections, which are obtained by the
intersection of the right circular cone by the plane surface.
We can say that the circles is a special case of an ellipse.
The circles and ellipse are closely related, because,
if we stretch the circle in the x-axis direction or y-axis direction ,we get the shape ellipse.
