The equation of the ellipse is (x-1)21+(y-2)25=1and graph of the ellipse is

Step by step solution

01

. Given information. 

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

Since the center and the focus lie on the line x=1, thus the major axis is parallel to the y-axis.

The distance of the center from one of the foci is c=2

Since, the point (2,2)lies on the ellipse

(2-1)2b2+(2-2)2a2=1b2=1

02

Step 2. The equation of ellipse. 

Substitute c=2and a=1we get.

b2=a2-c2a2=b2+c2a2=1+4a2=5

The equation of the ellipse is(x-1)21+(y-2)25=1

Step 3. Graph of the ellipse .
