Q.	An ellipse is defined as a curve traced by a point which has the sum of distances between any two fixed points always same in the same plane.
A.	true
B.	false
Answer» A. true
Explanation: an ellipse can also be defined as a curve that can be traced by a point moving in the same plane with the sum of the distances between any two fixed points always same. the two fixed points are called as a focus.
