5 Elliptical Segment Calculators

Area of Elliptical Segment
Go Area of Elliptical Segment = ((Major Axis of Elliptical Segment*Minor Axis of Elliptical Segment)/4)*(arccos(1-((2*Height of Elliptical Segment)/Major Axis of Elliptical Segment))-(1-((2*Height of Elliptical Segment)/Major Axis of Elliptical Segment))*sqrt(((4*Height of Elliptical Segment)/Major Axis of Elliptical Segment)-((4*Height of Elliptical Segment^2)/(Major Axis of Elliptical Segment^2))))
Semi Major Axis of Elliptical Segment
Go Semi Major Axis of Elliptical Segment = Major Axis of Elliptical Segment/2
Semi Minor Axis of Elliptical Segment
Go Semi Minor Axis of Elliptical Segment = Minor Axis of Elliptical Segment/2
Major Axis of Elliptical Segment
Go Major Axis of Elliptical Segment = 2*Semi Major Axis of Elliptical Segment
Minor Axis of Elliptical Segment
Go Minor Axis of Elliptical Segment = 2*Semi Minor Axis of Elliptical Segment

Major Axis of Elliptical Segment Formula

Major Axis of Elliptical Segment = 2*Semi Major Axis of Elliptical Segment
2a = 2*a

What is an Elliptical Segment?

An Elliptical Segment is obtained by cutting an Ellipse along a chord of the Ellipse which is parallel to either the major axis or the minor axis of the Ellipse.

What is an Ellipse?

An Ellipse is basically a conic section. If we cut a right circular cone using a plane at an angle greater than the semi angle of cone. Geometrically an Ellipse is the collection of all points in a plane such that the sum of the distances to them from two fixed points is a constant. Those fixed points are the foci of the Ellipse. The largest chord of the Ellipse is the major axis and the chord which passing through the center and perpendicular to the major axis is the minor axis of the ellipse. Circle is a special case of Ellipse in which both foci coincide at the center and so both major and minor axes become equal in length which is called the diameter of the circle.
