Find the Center the Vertices and the Foci of the ellipse giv
Find the Center, the Vertices, and the Foci of the ellipse given by the equation: 4(x - 5)^2 + 3(y - 4)^2 = 48
Solution
given 4(x-5)2+3(y-4)2=48
((x-5)2/12)+((y-4)2/16) =0
a2=12, b2=16
a=23 , b =4
e=[1-(a2/b2)]
e=[1-(12/16)] =1/2
centre (h,k)=(5,4)
vertices (h,k-b)=(5,4-4),(h,k+b)=(5,4+4)
vertices =(5,0),(5,8)
focie (h,k-be)=(5,4-2),(h,k+be)=(5,4+2)
focie (5,2),(5,6)
