To find: Equation of ellipse.
Answer to Problem 60SR
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Foci at
Co-vertex
Given
Foci at
On comparing the both foci we can say that x-coordinate is the same, so the ellipse has vertical orientation.
Therefore,
Standard form of ellipse is
Center
Foci
Center of ellipse is the mid point between the foci, so
Therefore,
Center
On comparing
We get
Distance between Foci and center will be
Therefore,
Using distance formula between
We know distance between center
Therefore,
We get
We know
On substituting values
We get
Therefore,
Required equation of ellipse is
