Area of a circle to the major and minor axes of the ellipse. The square gets sent to a rectangle circumscribing the ellipse. The ratio of the area of the circle to the square is /4, which means the ratio of the ellipse to the rectangle is also /4.

We can also consider analogous measurements in higher dimensions. For example, we may wish to find the volume inside a sphere. When we have
