Write an equation of an ellipse centered at the origin, satisfying the given conditions.
1. vertex (0, sqrt29); co-vertex (-5, 0)
Given ellipse has a horizontal major axis.
Its standard form of equation: , a>b
a=√29
a^2=29
b=5
b^2=25
Equation:
..
2. foci (±2, 0); co-vertices (0, ±6)
c=2
c^2=4
b=6
b^2=36
c^2=a^2-b^2
a^2=c^2+b^2=4+36=40
Equation:
