Question 868769: Find an equation for the ellipse that satisfies the given conditions.
Endpoints of major axis: (+-10,0), distance between foci:6 Answer by josgarithmetic(39620) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The major axis information means, a=5, and center of the ellipse is the origin. the way that a, b, and c are related is . This means that . The distance 6 between foci here means since the center is midpoint of this segment focus to focus, c=3. Find the value of : .
