To describe an Ellipse or Oval, having one TwoDiameters On the intersection of the two diameters as a centre, with aradius equal to one-half the difference of the two diameters, de-scribe the arc AB, and from B as a centre, with half the chordACB, describe the arc CD ; from E as a centre with the distanceED cut the diameters at FF and DD ; draw the lines FO, FO, FO,FO ; then from F and F as centres, describe the arcs 00, and 00 ;also, from D and D as centres, describe the smaller arcs, 00 and00, which will complete the ellipse as required. FOR DESCRIBING PATTERNS.
