Find an equation for each ellipse. Graph the equation by hand.

Center at (1,2): focus at (4,2): contains the point(1,3)

Short Answer

Expert verified

The equation of the ellipse is (x-1)210+(y-2)2=1and graph of the ellipse is

Step by step solution

01

. Given information.

Center at (1,2): focus at (4,2): contains the point (1,3)

By using distance formula the value of ais

a=(4-1)2+(2-3)2a=9+1a=10

Since a=10and the major axis is parallel to the x-axis, the vertices are 10units to the left and right of the center.

Thus, the vertices are v1=(1+10,2)and v2=(1-10,2).

The distance between the center and the focus will give the value of c.

c=(4-1)2+(2-2)2c=9c=3

02

Step 2. The equation of ellipse.  

Substituting c=3and a=10we get.

localid="1646723555627" b2=(10)2-(3)2b2=10-9b2=1

The equation of the ellipse is(x-1)210+(y-2)2=1
