Write the equation of an ellipse if the major axis is 22
\n" ); document.write( "units long and is parallel to the x axis, the minor axis
\n" ); document.write( "is 20 units long, and has a center at (9, 1)

document.write( "The equation of an ellipse with major axis parallel to \r\n" );
document.write( "the x-axis\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "is:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "where the center is (h,k)\r\n" );
document.write( "where a = one-half the major axis\r\n" );
document.write( "and b = one-half the minor-axis.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Now all you have to do is substitute for h, k, a and b.\r\n" );
