Question

dentify an equation in standard form for an ellipse with its center at the origin, a vertex at (0, 6), and a co-vertex at (2, 0).

Answer 1

Answer:x2/b2 + y2/a2 = 1 or y2/a2+x2/b2=1

Step-by-step explanation:First of all, only A) and B) are ellipse equations. The other two are hyperbola equations, since they are subtractions.

The vertexes are (x,y) --> (0,6) and (2,0). So a = 6 and b = 2. The major axis is on the y-axis, since 6>2

x2/b2 + y2/a2 = 1 or y2/a2+x2/b2=1
