An ellipse has center ( 0,0) and one vertex a(10,0) . Find the equation of the ellipse if it passes through r(6,4).
***
Given ellipse has a horizontal major axis and center at the origin.
Its standard form of equation: , a>b
..
a=10(distance from center to vertices)
a^2=100
equation:
solving for b^2

equation of given ellipse:
