How to graph an ellipse that's like this {eq}x^2 + 4y^2 = 1. {/eq}

Ellipse

An ellipse can be defined as a shape that seems similar to the circle, and the radius of the circle is similar all point, but the distance of ellipse on each point of the circumference is not similar. In ellipse distance from the center to the top point is Semiminor, and distance from center to side point is Semi-major axis.
