find the standard form of the equation of the ellipse satisfying the given conditions.
Foci:(0,-2), (0,2); x-intercept: -2 and 2
ellipse has a vrtical major axis with center at the origin
Its standard form of equation:x%5E2%2Fb%5E2%2By%5E2%2Fa%5E2=1
c=2
c^2=4
b=2
b^2=4
a^2=c^2+b^2=4+4=8
equation: x%5E2%2F4%2By%5E2%2F8=1
