During anovulation, which is common with irregular periods in menopause, progesterone is not produced. This can lead to estrogen build-up. As production of these two hormones so integral to the menstrual cycle begins to decrease prior to menopause, periods are usually affected.
10 A hula hoop is like a racetrack: Calculating the circumference, radius, and area of a circle. Provided by Kenan Fellows Program. Student can use hula hoops to explore basic geometry concepts and indirect measurement. In this lesson, students will use hoops of different sizes to explore geometry concepts such as circumference, area, and radius.
You can change the position of the two focus points (F1, F2). Also drag the point on the ellipse and observe that the sum of the lengths of the lines that meet there is constant. An ellipse looks like a circle that has been squashed into an oval. Like a circle, an ellipse is a type of line. Imagine a straight line segment that is bent around until its ends join. Then shape that loop until it is an ellipse - a sort of 'squashed circle' like the one above.
