Question 684975
E is the ellipse with foci at (4,-2) and (4,8) and whose major axis has length of 20 
Find an equation for the indicated conic section
**
This is an ellipse with vertical major axis.
Its standard form of equation:{{{(x-h)^2/b^2+(y-k)^2/a^2=1}}}, a>b, (h,k)=(x,y) coordinates of center
For given ellipse:
center: (4,3)
given length of vertical major axis=20=2a
a=10
a^2=100
c=5 (distance from center to foci)
c^2=25
c^2=a^2-b^2
b^2=a^2-c^2=100-25=75
Equation of given ellipse: 
{{{(x-4)^2/75+(y-3)^2/100=1}}}
