Steps are given to draw a normal and a tangent to the ellipse at a point Q on it. Arrange the steps.i. Draw a line ST through Q and perpendicular to NM.ii. ST is the required tangent.iii. Join Q with the foci F1 and F2.iv. Draw a line NM bisecting the angle between the lines drawn before which is normal.
Steps are given to draw an ellipse by trammel method. Arrange the steps.i. Place the trammel so that R is on the minor axis CD and Q on the major axis AB. Then P will be on the ellipse.ii. Draw two axes AB and CD intersecting each other at O.iii. By moving the trammel to new positions, always keeping R on CD and Q on AB, obtain other points and join those to get an ellipse.iv. Along the edge of a strip of paper which may be used as a trammel, mark PQ equal to half the minor axis and PR equal to half of major axis.
