given:
-> this is an ellipse
compare to standard form and you see that
and
->
->

the coordinates of the foci: (,) and (,)
since and , foci are at (,) and (,)
so, foci are at: (, ) and (, )
the major axis:
minor axis:
the endpoints of the major axis are at vertices : (,) and (,)
(,) and (,)
the endpoints of the minor axis are at co-vertices : (,) and (,)
(,) and (,)
the latus rectum:
latus rectum of an ellipse is nothing but
