- An imaginary line drawn from the center of the sun to the center of planet will sweep out equal areas in equal intervals of time.

Kepler's first law:
The orbit of a planet is an ellipse with the sun at one of the foci.
Kepler's second law:
The line joining the planet and the sun sweeps equal areas in equal intervals of time.
Kepler's third law:
The square of its period of revolution around the sun is directly proportional to the cube of the mean distance of a planet from the sun.
T² proportional r³ i.e. T²/r³ = constant= K......(1)
