Question 749206
one major axis vertex is located at (16,-7). find the other major axis vertex for the ellipse defined by this equation: (x-8)^2/64 + (y+7)^2/49 =1
This is an equation of an ellipse with horizontal major axis.
Its standard form: {{{(x-h)^2/a^2+(y-k)^2/b^2=1}}}, a>b, (h,k)=(x,y) coordinates of center
For given equation: {{{(x-8)^2/64 + (y+7)^2/49 =1}}}
center: (8,-7)
a^2=64
a=8
length of horizontal major axis=2a=16
other major axis vertex: (0,-7)
