Description

Returns the Major Axis, the Minor Axis, and the ratio of the Minor Axis to the Major Axis.  The Major Axis is the larger of the two Axes, and the Minor Axis is the smaller Axis.  The Major Axis always lies on the line between 0 and Pi Radians in EllipseStd, and the Minor Axis always lies on the line between Pi/2 and 3*Pi/2 Radian in EllipseStd.

Remarks

The Axes can be set using PutAxes.
