| The foreshortened circular ends of a cylinder tilting back in space become compressed along one axis. Their proportion is measured as the relationship between their major and minor axes. The major axis of an ellipse will sometimes be vertical, sometimes horizontal, or it can tilt anywhere in between but it will always be perpendicular (90 degrees) to its central axis. | |||||||||
