Perhaps the parametric form of the equation of an ellipse might come in handy.

King Coder [ # Remember Forever ] , e.g. The coordinates of a point on an ellipse can be written as: x=a cos(t), y= b sin(t), where t is a parameter representing the angle between the x axis and the radial line from the origin to the point. Maybe the following link might help? http://www.nabla.hr/PC-Ellipse3.htm#The%20parametric%20equations%20of%20the%20ellipse
