\n" ); document.write( " Standard Form of an Equation of an Ellipse is \"%28x-h%29%5E2%2Fa%5E2+%2B+%28y-k%29%5E2%2Fb%5E2+=+1+\"
\n" ); document.write( "where Pt(h,k) is the center and a and b are the respective vertices distances from center.
\n" ); document.write( "find the foci of the ellipse with the equation:
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2%2F16+%2B+y%5E2%2F36=1\" | Center(0,0)
\n" ); document.write( " a = 4 and b = 6 f = sqrt(36-16) = sqrt(20) = ±2sqrt(5)
\n" ); document.write( "ellipse with foci (0, ±2sqrt(5))
