Find the standard form of the equation of the ellipse satisfying the following conditions:
\n" ); document.write( "Major axis vertical with length:16
\n" ); document.write( "length of minor axis = 8
\n" ); document.write( "center is located at (5,-5)
\n" ); document.write( "

\r\n" );
document.write( "You need to learn this fact:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The standard form of the equation of an ellipse with \r\n" );
document.write( "the major axis vertical with center (h,k), major axis \r\n" );
document.write( "2a and minor axis 2b is\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The center of your ellipse is (h,k) = (5,-5)\r\n" );
document.write( "The major axis of your ellipse = 16 = 2a, so a = 8\r\n" );
document.write( "The minor axis of your ellipse = 8 = 2b, b = 4 \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So just plug in.\r\n" );
