Ellipses and elliptical arcs have a direction. Normally the direction is counterclockwise, in the case of mirrored objects clockwise.

Please look for starting and ending points of elliptical arcs in counterclockwise direction. In the standard case you can find the imaginary starting point of an ellipse at the apex of the 1st major axis.
