Equation of Each Ellipse and Finding the Foci, Vertices, and Co– Vertices of Ellipses

If major axis of an ellipse is parallel to \(x\), its called horizontal ellipse. If major axis of an ellipse is parallel to \(y\), its called vertical ellipse. Step by Step Guide to Find Equation of Ellipses Horizontal: \(\color{blue}{\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}+\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1}\) Vertical: \(\color{blue}{\frac{(x-h)^2}{b^2}+\frac{(y-k)^2}{a^2}=1}\) Equation of Each Ellipse and Finding the Foci, Vertices, and Co– Vertices of Ellipses […]
