Hi,
ellipse with C(0,0), a vertical minor axis of length 6, and a horizontal major axis of length 10

Standard Form of an Equation of an Ellipse is
where Pt(h,k) is the center. (a variable positioned to correspond with major axis)
a and b are the respective vertices distances from center
and ±are the foci distances from center: a > b
