an equation of the ellipse:

given:
center: (,)=(,)
endpoint of minor axis (, )
Each endpoint of the major axis is the vertex of the ellipse (plural: vertices), and each endpoint of the minor axis is a co-vertex of the ellipse. The center of an ellipse is the midpoint of both the major and minor axes.

co-vertex of the ellipse is (, )
if so, then the other co-vertex of the ellipse is (, )
distance from the center to co-vertex is =>
a major axis of length : =>=>
