title: Overlap area of 2 ellipses using matplotlib
body: <p>Does anyone know if it is possible to calculate the overlapping area of two ellipses using <code>matplotlib.patches.Ellipse</code>.</p>
  
  <p>I have to ellipses like this:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/rAzjV.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/rAzjV.png" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>
  
  <p>And i would like to calculate the ratio between the overlap area and the are of the individual ellipses.
  Is this possible using only the <code>Ellipse</code> from <code>matplotlib.patches</code></p>
