semimajor axis length= 2 from center to one vertex
\n" ); document.write( "semiminor axis length= 2sqrt(2)
\n" ); document.write( "The line going from one vertex, through the center, and ending at the other vertex is called the \"transverse\" axis. It is twice the semimajor axis length
\n" ); document.write( "The distance from the center to each vertex is called the semi-major axis.
\n" ); document.write( "The transverse axis is 4
\n" ); document.write( "vertices (-2, 0) ; (2, 0)
