Each circle I elongated using a small rolling pin (a large one would work well too if you're careful), then placed a heaping teaspoonful of filling on each, folded the lightly moistened dough over the filling and crimped it shut using a fork.
As we drew closer, the color changed from white to blue, and the shape began to shift, elongating from a circle to an oval and rising overhead, until it was clear that what had seemed to be a round opening at the far end of the tunnel was in fact an elliptical Skyspace in a large viewing room.
The eccentricity of an ellipse describes how elongated the ellipse is; a circle would have an eccentricity of 0, and a line segment has an eccentricity of 1.
One of the first objects to greet visitors to the new galleries will be a 1,000-year-old 1,000-year-old 1,000-year-olde edge Iranianlearthenwaregantly elongated Kufic script spelling out a kind of Poor Richard's Almanac maxim of its day: "Planning bowlre whoseprotedge you from regret".
Circularity is defined as 4π×Area/Perimeter, where 1 represents a perfect circle and 0 an infinitely elongated polygon.
Circularity was calculated according to the following formula, which results in values between 0 and 1, where 1 is a perfect circle and 0 an infinitely elongated polygon.
Some elliptical orbits are very nearly circles, whereas others are highly elongated (eccentric).
The orbit of a planet is, if unaffected by the attraction of another planet, elliptical; some elliptical orbits are very nearly circles, while others are much elongated.
Decrease in CI may occur if elongated neuronal cytoplasm becomes closer to the exact circle (rounding).
Draw two elongated ovals on each upper side of the circle.
