Find the equation of the ellipse with the given conditions.
Center (1,1), vertex (1,3), passing through (0,0).
**
This is an ellipse with vertical major axis.
Its standard form of equation:, a>b, (h,k)=(x,y) coordinates of center
For given ellipse:
center: (1,1)
length of major axis=4=2a
a=2
a^2=4
plug in coordinates of given point on ellipse: (0,0)
(x-1)^2/b^2+(y-1)^2/4=1
(0-1)^2/b^2+(0-1)^2/4=1
1/b^2+1/4=1
1/b^2=3/4
b^2=4/3
Equation of given ellipse:
