Find the foci of the ellipse with the equation: ((x^2)/36))+((y^2)/(64))=1
This is an ellipse with vertical major axis: (denominator of y-term>denominator of x-term)
Its standard form of equation: , a>b, (h,k)=(x,y) coordinates of center.
..
For given equation:
center: (0,0)
a^2=64
b^2=36
c^2=a^2-b^2=64-36=28
c=√28≈5.3
foci: (0,0�c)=(0,0�√28)=(0,0�5.3)=(0,-5.3) and (0,5.3)
