Chapter 4, Problem 21T
The moon orbits Earth in an elliptical path with the center of Earth at one focus, as shown in the figure. The major and minor axes of the orbit have lengths of 768,800 kilometres and 767,641 kilometres, respectively. Find the least distance (perigee) and the greatest distance (apogee) from the center of the moon to the center of Earth.

Pluto travels around the sun in an elliptical path with the sun
at one focus. The minor axis of its orbit is 10,000,000,000 km. Find the
distance between Pluto and the sun at perihelion, the vertex closest to
the sun. Then find the distance between Pluto and the sun at aphelion,
6.
the further vertex from the sun.
