QuestionAnalyze the equation. That is, find the center, vertices, and foci of the ellipse and graph it. x216+y236=1\frac{x^{2}}{16}+\frac{y^{2}}{36}=1

Studdy Solution
Graph the ellipse:
1. Plot the center at (0,0)(0, 0).
2. Plot the vertices at (0,6)(0, 6), (0,6)(0, -6), (4,0)(4, 0), and (4,0)(-4, 0).
3. Plot the foci at (0,25)(0, 2\sqrt{5}) and (0,25)(0, -2\sqrt{5}).
4. Draw the ellipse passing through the vertices, ensuring it is elongated along the y y -axis.

The center is (0,0)(0, 0), vertices are (0,6)(0, 6), (0,6)(0, -6), (4,0)(4, 0), (4,0)(-4, 0), and foci are (0,25)(0, 2\sqrt{5}), (0,25)(0, -2\sqrt{5}).
