It appears that i began the ellipse page with the term "locus" in the first line, but defined that merely as "set" in the appositive following it. Later, i used words like "far end" and "closer end" to help define the semimajor and -minor axes. I forgot middle schoolers would be reading this as well. Would it be okay then to describe things like that and just use the fancy terms at the end? | |||

terminology
It appears that i began the ellipse page with the term "locus" in the first line, but defined that merely as "set" in the appositive following it. Later, i used words like "far end" and "closer end" to help define the semimajor and -minor axes. I forgot middle schoolers would be reading this as well. Would it be okay then to describe things like that and just use the fancy terms at the end?
